Coco Chanel believed women should wear perfume wherever they hoped to be kissed.
Ernest Beaux created Chanel No. 5 for Coco Chanel in 1921. It has a floral top note of ylang-ylang and neroli, with a heart of blends of jasmine and rose all above a woody base of sandalwood and vetiver. Today Chanel No.5 sells a bottle every 30 seconds.
