The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 2 October 2024 4 Comments

Holiday 2024 limited editions from Chanel: first, No. 5 "...cloaked in a soft dusting of snow: a delicate veil of silk, applied by hand, drapes over the bottle's shoulders and cabochon, giving it a unique character. The product of a highly skilled craft, the sheer fabric lends the fragrance a sculptural effect. An exceptional gift that inspires a sense of wonder. The limited-edition N°5 Eau de Parfum is presented in a sleeve embellished with an image of the iconic bottle, created by a Maître d'Art using the time-honoured technique of embossing." £175 at Harrods. Next, purse sprays...

...in No. 5 L'Eau Eau de Toilette (at left; "The new limited-edition N°5 L’EAU purse spray is adorned with an accessory that complements its design. It features a jewellery chain bearing Gabrielle Chanel's favourite number, 5, which allows it to be worn around the wrist") or No. 5 Eau de Parfum (at right), £165 each for 3 x 7 ml at Harrods.

    Do I need anymore no 5? Absolutely not. Do I want more? Yes, especially the extrait.
