The French fashion house is an icon in the world of fragrance – learn more about the history behind some of Chanel's standout perfumes, from Coco Mademoiselle to N°5
October 31, 2022 - 17:59 GMT Orin Carlin Maison Chanel holds a special place in the hearts of perfume obsessives – that much is clear. Its inimitable founder Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel was not only keen to break boundaries in her design work, indeed her disruptive, forward-thinking spirit extended to the fragrance world.

Exuding magnetism, it is heady and intoxicating, but with a fresh line of jasmine running through to provide clarity.SHOP NOW N°22 Launched one year after N°5 in 1922, N°22 is a variation of its predecessor, possessing a splendidly smooth soapiness. It was part of the original line-up from which Gabrielle picked out N°5 as the brand's first perfume launch.
