Chanel N°5 Eau de Parfum is the modern parfum-strength take on the 1921 original, built on a floral-aldehydic accord. It opens with a bright aldehydes-and-neroli burst, moves through jasmine, rose and iris, and settles into vanilla, sandalwood, patchouli and musk. It is richer and softer than the Eau de Toilette, with more vanilla and less of the sharp soapy edge, and it lasts most of a day on skin. It suits shoppers who want a classic, formal-smelling floral with real projection; those who prefer light, clean or fruity scents usually find it heavy and old-fashioned.
