I am so grateful to you and glad I came across this particular video, although I do love them all. I have been a Chanel No. 5 devotee for 100 years. Of course, I exaggerate a little. 😉 Anyway, I have had many bottles over the years of the EDP, parfum, and EDT. At some point I became convinced that I liked the EDP the best. Not so after all. One thing I know for sure is that I did not enjoy my last bottle of parfum as much as I used to. I just realized that was a splash bottle. You jogged my old memory with this video and I remembered that the parfum I liked in the past had always been in the spray bottles. I forgot that. I immediately got excited and logged onto the Chanel Store and ordered the travel spray! I got it today just before going to work and Immediately opened the package and sprayed. Yum yum lovely! I tried to spray it softly because I was already set for the day with the EDT. This too is because you made me curious enough to revisit it too and had forgotten how awesome it is. Strangely the EDT lasts longer on me than the EDP and is brighter. The parfum is better in the spray form somehow, it seems to make the notes sparkle and dance close to the skin instead of going splat and flattening out like they do in the bottle you tip and dab. Anyway, you reintroduced me to all aspects of a lifetime love and, in so doing, made my life much much better! Forever grateful!
I love No 5 Parfum, but I also love the classic bottle. I wish it came with the spray! It is such a pain to apply using the stopper! So when I buy it, I just transfer it into a small spray bottle and carry it with me. And yes, I have the "lipstick spray", I just love the classic bottle. :)
The first day I experienced No5 I knew it was extraordinary and the very next day I saw one of your first reviews for No5 and I was blown away ! Your words just heightened the whole No5 experience and I realized I had made two extraordinary discoveries: You and No5. This happened years ago and both you and No5 have brought so much joy to my life since then. I have learned so much about life from your videos and livestreams … your knowledge about so many different things is extraordinary ….and you are truly an extraordinary person ! Thank you for sharing your brilliance with us 🙌🏻❤️
Oh Dacob I love your perfume reviews! I love your appreciation of this fragrance most of all! As so many new gens call this “old or motherly” it’s just not! It’s magical. I’ve smelled so many perfumes in my life. I remember smelling Chanel 5 when I was about 8? My grandma had some on her vanity. One day I explored. All of them smelled lovely…but the 5? It was MAGICAL. It was unlike anything I had ever and still have ever smelled in my life. It wasn’t just a representation of flowers or a place or feeling ….it’s a masterpiece that someone created by imagination smelling and science basically….it’s a forever perfume! It doesn’t smell “old” it’s forever!! How you described the cold and waiting for things to come alive again when the cold fades? Omg yes! 🙌 it will always be a fav and you youngins calling it old??! Mamas lived and every man I’ve ever been with?? Would lay their nose in my neck for hrs…saying oh you smell so good!! Ahhh
I must admit you're the one who seduced me into Chanel's purfum world, while I was studying aromatherapy. I've since then stored a few bottles of No. 5 extrait refills, and this post reminded me why. I once when I went for hiking, I smelled jasmine and was looking for the flowers and couldn't find it - it was the time I realized Chanel uses active/living natural organisms - it was the No. 5 extrait I sprayed on my ankles that morning, (and that day I saw a hummingbird!). My favorite is Rose de Mai from France. The absolute oil is sitting in front of me right now. Such a high vibrating oil I've ever felt. No. 5 is a magical combination of the numerology and precious plants' extracts that was chosen by the universal laws of attraction. I do hope Chanel will continue to keep the DNA alive. May is called the gold month. Such a miraculous sophisticated elixir that still exits. Gold and the green background you used is such a symbolic combination of No. 5 ✨ P.S. Your attempt to get the last droplets of No. 5 extrait gave me chuckles 😂 Cute!
What a wonderful comment! Thank you Kate 🙏🏻💖 There is a highly esoteric component to this fragrance and all the ingredients utilized. But maybe more on that topic in another video. 😉✨✨✨
I've been influenced by your love of No 5 and discovered Eau Premiere, which gives me out of the shower, before bed vibes. I love the vanilla note they used; reminds me of the vanilla in Sublimage. I ordered it for myself for xmas. I tried the extrait too and it's very interesting and I totally get the snow analogy. How long does one of the 7.5ml extrait spray bottles last you? Merry xmas, Dacob!🎄
Merry Christmas Molly 🎄💖 the 7.5ml extrait spray lasts me a few months if I use it sparingly. Its not a concentration one uses each day. Its quite potent.
Thank you for another wonderful perfume review. I love a lot of perfumes from Chanel, but the extraits are on another level. Particularly with No.5 you can smell that extra quality of ingredients.
I just bought my first Chanel #5 yesterday. A Black Friday gift from my husband. After busy 8 hours in my own Big box retail store starting at 5am, I did some personal shopping. I love it. Enjoyed the box opening. First smell. Beautiful on my vanity. Thank you for what you do each week.
Oh Dacob what a brilliant review again❤u made me fall in love with chanel n.5 and especially the extrait…and listening to this video of yours on my husband’s and I 10th anniversary make it so special…wearing it tonight and feeling it as special as the first day…same as love ❤️ I feel for my husband… thank you so much for making us living these moments that your videos and your beautiful way of story telling contributed so much! 💓
The perfume purse spray is the best! I have no. 5 in the splash bottle, but I prefer the purse spray, because it stays clean, and it doesn’t get spilled by accident.
most people do not buy parfum/extrait because it's too expensive per ml. parum/extract was a lot more popular up until the 90's when the regular edt and edp came in a splash bottle without a spray nozzle. these days department stores no longer carry traditional 1 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1/4 oz parfum/extrait with a thick glass and stopper anymore. parfum/extrait is like the thing on the past for designer fragrances these days. if there is not much demand for it why promote the product and make special packaging for it.
Because most people do not know they exist. Thats why promotion is vital. No5 is not such a best seller because its a great perfume. There are many great perfumes out there that have reat prices but almost nobody buys them. They don’t buy these perfumes because the brands owning them do not invest a penny in promoting them. Most people today do not even know of the extrait concentration of No5, let alone its spray version. If chanel actually promoted it, I believe its sales would rise considerably.
Hello Dacob, I love your reviews about perfumes cause your nose is great it can decompose each element not mine... I have felt in love the 5 when I was 16 but I did not wear it my skin was so dry sooo but now i can wear my skin has changed... I am sooo happy. Could you make a review about Eau de cologne number 5?..... Thank you more for your works 🥰🥰
Back many many years ago in 1977 when I was 17 my mom was getting ready for work and I was getting ready for school, and mom thought it would be funny to spray me with her Chanel No.5. Now all these years later on occasion I will still give myself a spray. I love the stuff.
I can’t smell 5 without thinking of my sister….mine became 22 because didn’t want to compete, and I love it. Many other Channel fragrances, Coco, Allure, Mademoiselle and 19 a bit became part of my fragrance closet. Wow…..I’m not sure why love Channel fragrances so much, but I do.
Thank you so much for sharing the rich history of Chanel No. 5. Despite all of the new "It" fragrances that come out each year/season, I always come back to Chanel. Nothing compares to Chanel fragrances and I so appreciate the time you spend on your videos. Now I need to go find the No. 5 extrait spray! Hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
I feel like Anna Karenina was wearing Chanel 5 when she saw Vronsky at the train station that winter night when the blizzard was surrounding them and when he told her he couldn’t not follow her wherever she went ❤
Watch my video on the top five books to read on Coco Chanel and you will get your answer to that question. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bE-kcOIs3ds.htmlfeature=shared
Another fabulous No5 Video ❤ Thank you! Is this bottle discontinued? I've only been collecting No5 for 2 years, and I've never encountered this in a boutique or Chanel concession
I absolutely enjoy the edt of number 5 I picked up a new bottle last year and have been going through it faster than any other fragrance in my collection. I love the deep drydown it gives off such a beautiful smell. I would love to try the Parfum sometime.
Hi Dacob! I just rec'd my son's birthday pkg and the samples came with a black bag with a No 5 charm on it! Adorbs! I chose the classic gift box option and that's how the samples came PLUS there is the holiday beige and silver shimmer ribbon on the box! I hope my son appreciates all the goodies...or should I snag a couple for myself....who's gonna know....😉
If your son is not too much into Chanel and the goodie freebie culture then you might just easily be able to get away with keeping the trinkets for yourself 😉😉😉💖💫💖
Yay my love is talking about Chanel! My birthday is today and I just got Coco Parfume. My no 1 favorite! I need to get the purse spray of the N5. I hear Alexis Carrington told me it’s so Devine than the other N 5 flankers oh my here I come! 😘😘😘
Exceptional video once again, I keep coming back to it and have finally ordered the 7.5 extrait spray for Christmas! Super excited to receive it, already know you will come to mind when I apply it 😄❤
Dacob! I just received my parfum spray only to find that it had no plastic seal and a finger print on the gold plate, the box that the spray actually came in was ripped as well. I went to your video that you did 2 years ago to confirm my suspicions and my heart dropped :(, I purchased this from David Jones (Neiman Marcus of Australia) which is an authorised Chanel seller. The vial it's self is 4 years old and 98% full judging by my comparison of the one you just unboxed. Can't return it either since it came with no packaging! Super bummed about this and this experience has tainted what was supposed to be a special moment for me to discover N5 😢
The one and only master piece in parfumerie... you so get the poetry and the magic ! 💖 I have a question for you : have you tried the body oil ? They made beautiful sets this winter, I'm tempted... 😅 Hugs❤❤❤❤❤
Its a beauty. 💖 I have the past season’s No5 body oils… with gold shimmer as well as the dry oil. Its too much now. I still have not used up those products so I will probably not be purchasing another oil this year. 💖
Everyone, men and women, should smell No. 5 extrait. It is a beautiful experience. The first time I smelled I closed my eyes and saw white and beige, I didn't even throw away the blotter. It is one of the few perfumes that has done this. The other one that transported me to a flower garden was Jardins de Bagatelle. What are your thoughts on the Coco Mademoiselle extrait? I have never smelled it.
Wonderful vision when smelling No5 with closed eyes 🥰🥰🥰 I have reviewed Coco Mademoiselle Extrait 😉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nNHj2mRtNBU.htmlfeature=shared
@@essence-tiallydacob9611Thank you Dacob! I haven't seen this video from you vault 📽 I'm surprised I haven't seen the Parfum vaporisateur pour le sac. I wonder if they discontinued the refills in the USA for le parfum concentration because I still see the other ones for EDP and EDT💔
I adored hearing how she refused to clothe them, shut her shop, and left Paris. Hugo Boss and the others can not say the same. I would never fault their creativity, yet I can’t help but to fault them as people. I do not condemn them because it’s not my place-but fault, yes I do.
And yet so many people today still decide to look the other way when men are exposed for having worked for the enemy in the 30’s and 40’s and instead decide to witch hunt a woman who was innocent.
@@essence-tiallydacob9611 it’s all true what you say. It hurts my heart so. She stayed true to her convictions, behaving so honorably and just. No one should ever vilify her.
The parfum sold out? They are still producing the parfum of No5 so it will be back in stock. Just not sure if they will keep selling the 7.5ml spray version in every country…
The first time I ever smelled Chanel No5 was when I was about 10 years old. My grandmother had a bottle and it was one of the old dab on bottles. I was absolutely blown away by it and didn't realise that anything could ever smell so good! I still feel the same about it 40 years later I love it! Your reviews are great and I love watching your videos! You are a joy to watch Jacob thank you very much for bringing a ray of sunshine into our lives. Best wishes to you!❤
I seem like in the minority, as I never liked Chanel No 5. It must be my skin because it has a chemical smell to me. I do have these small refill bottles , 3 in a pack, as I didn't know if I'd like it, so I got smaller size. I can't find anyone who likes no 5 ,to give it to.
@@essence-tiallydacob9611 I’m certain you’ll find a way because it would be sad to leave behind a drop that didn’t fulfill its special purpose. Get it Dacob! I’m going to search hacks to get the last drop out of a bottle now…
