Pros & Cons

  • ✅ This is gorgeous. If you like the original but find it too biting or sharp. Or. Too 'mature' this is a unique adaptation. More floral. More woody and much more soapy.
  • ✅ I couldn’t resist buying this as a gift to myself! Being a limited edition! The beautiful red bottle! and also It’s an old time favourite from years ago!
  • ✅ Hello to my fragrantica friends I hope you all had a Happy Valentine's Day 2019. This is my review of the fabulous Chanel No 5 LIMITED EDITION Red 100ml edp. Firstly may I just say this is not the same as the original no 5 as many have stated previously.
  • ✅ This is gorgeous. If you like the original but find it too biting or sharp. Or. Too “mature” this is a unique adaptation. More floral. More woody and much more soapy.
  • ✅ I own both bottles and did a test by spraying both perfumes and The Red Edition is more Sparkling, stronger and sexier if I may say so.
  • ✅ Seriously I think this is gorgeous! so gorgeous in fact it makes me want to cry!
  • ✅ Okay, I must say this is different than the OG Chanel No.5 it has woody hint that wasn't there before.
  • ❌ so i work in retail. Had a chance to test this today. To see if it's a reformulation, or throwback Opening notes, i'm sorry, but that's pure baby wipes.
  • ❌ I got this as a gift and I really don't like it (I tried). So I would love to trade my almost full bottle for something I will wear.
  • ❌ Sorry to inform you ladies, but No. 5 and several of its variants smell EXACTLY like a urinal cake...
  • ❌ Opening notes, i'm sorry, but that's pure baby wipes. Has a bizarre anisic note I do not remember.
  • ❌ I got this as a gift and I really don't like it (I tried).
