    @JessicaLanear7 years ago I went to a perfume store recently and asked for Chanel No. 5. The staff asked me how old was I and said it's for people 45 and older. He offended me and was rude. I knew what I wanted no matter my age. He instead tried to sell me scents that smelled like candy. Goodbye!!! I won't go back. ... 65

    @lisettesbeaute6 years ago I smelled this 10 years ago...and I knew, I wasn't ready. Yesterday, I bought my first bottle after smelling it and realizing it differently for the first time. I simply couldnt understand it before! Now, I cannot get enough. Otherwordly. ... 23

    @Ravinder22208 years ago I totally agree with you. Chanel N°5 is a lovely perfume. It smells so good. Although it's marketed for ladies, but men can also wear it too, It's unisex. The first best selling perfume to bear a designers name since 1921. ... 27

    @monikab.18295 years ago Dacob, I need to make a confession! Today I bought my very first Chanel no5. All my life I thought I hated it but now I’m totally hooked. I adore it, I’m wearing it now and I can’t stop sniffing myself. Thank you so much for this review ❤️ ... 13

    @VibeFly9 years ago I'm a male and I was with an old friend of mine (female) who wanted to stop off in Sephora to buy some make-up after we had dinner. The sales girl was over hearing me say to my friend that I wanted to buy something classic and classy for my mother for Mothers Day. She suggested Chanel No 5 and I told her I never smelled it before. She had me smell it and was like....WOW...this smells really good! My friend simply just said one word "Beautiful" as we were smelling it and I thought what a perfect word for this perfume. I bought my Mother the pure stuff .5oz Parfum bottle for $200. Not a price I thought I would have ever payed for a perfume/cologne/Eau De Toilette..etc...but the smell compelled me to buy it for her! I hope she loves it! Thanks for the history Dacob! I'm more convinced I made the right choice for a Mothers Day present! ... 28

    @makeuponthemind329 years ago I just turned 21 at the end of October. I remember every time I would try N°5 I absolutely HATED it. I had never liked it I thought it smelled musty, and like an old lady and had only ever thought it smelled nice on one person. But I put it on recently at a counter in my mall and absolutely fell in love. It's luxurious, classic, elegant and makes me feel of high society. I have yet to purchase it. I'm debating on the EDP bottle or the pure fragrance oil. I know the oil is what would be closest to the original fragrance but I know I'll end up using it quite quickly because I'm in love! ... 25

    @angalglover36606 years ago I use to hate No.5 I’m my early 20’s it was too strong but oh my not unless the formula has changed or maybe I’ve changed in my 40’s it’s one of my favorites. I’m a collector of them all I like them all but Coco and No. 5 are my favorite🙂 ... 8

    @invaderlark8 years ago Dacob, I love your videos! You're so good at describing these perfumes and you give such fantastic emotions and beauty describing them. When you mention them I feel like I need to experience it too and from your other videos I recently bought two vintage YSL Opium, EdT and Secret De Parfum(and the modern EdT), and a bottle of vintage EdT of Poison. I'm on the hunt for No 5! I'm wearing a sample of the EdP and it's good but I completely understand that powder you mentioned. I've only smelt the EdP and the Premiere and the Premiere is good, but to me they made it office friendly for the casual young person. My sister said that it was "cleaner/more sterile" but she also said it smelt like baby wipes. I still like it but i'd prefer the EdP for the richness. I really would love to try the EdC. I hear it's very animalic, very heavy with the civet. I am curious, Dacob, how you feel about Guerlain? I recently bought a vintage EdT and modern EdP of Shalimar and my god is there a huge difference! They're beautiful, especially in the drydown, but the vintage just has a better quality to it. I should've bought Parfum Initial especially since it's been discontinued and it's cute with the tassel and pink liquid. I figured I would ask because you have a fantastic collection and thought you might have a vintage Shalimar parfum, which to me is holy grail status just based off the regal bottle. Anyway sorry for talking so much, have a good wednesday :). ... 4

    @szekelynora7727 years ago Great video, as always. I love the comparision of the different versions split by the eras . I bought the pure perfume during my first business trip abroad, it does mark a milestone of maturity for me. I bought the dry body oil last year and that one is very true to the pure perfume's scent at least to my nose. ... 1

    @SyrianKnight019 years ago Very informative video Dacob I just got into Chanel fragrances recently with Egoiste being my latest purchase where they sent me a sample of Coco Mademoiselle which smells wonderful I can only imagine how great No5 must be.. Next time in the city will definitely make it a must try fragrance when picking up Bleu De Chanel for the collection! :) ... 2

    @isabelmichetschlaeger35643 years ago What a gorgeous review! I must say! I never liked Chanel n.5, ever! But as many commented below, I wasn’t ready for it. Lately I was kinda browsing in Chanel department and gave a try to Chanel l eau ..liked it…but tried premiere as well..was not convinced… Then I thought let me smell the classic n.5 and I was completely hooked! None was fabulous like the classic one and bought it immediately. After like 20 years since my first approach, I am finally ready to wear it, to understand it, to love it…. ...

    @NataleePatel9 years ago Ooooh my goddess..... hell yes you are a wonderfully crazy collector!! I've only just purchased my first Chanel No 5, the EDT... such a new acquisition that it's only just due to arrive in the mail today! My favourite is Eau Premiere but I'm trying to get a little crazier in my own obsession :P
    Lanier was right! My brain ate up all that info- thank you. Do you teach on any other platforms? Now I have to get the pure parfum or I won't be complete. GAH!
    My packaged arrived whilst watching this.... brilliant! Cheers Dacob.

    @mrsgrandberg88368 years ago Ugh, you are soooo good at describing scents. I've smelt this one before and also thought it smelled like old lady and way too strong. I'm going to the store now and going to smell it again (and hopefully buy it as well)
    Thank you for knowing the history and always be prepared.
    I just tried watching several YouTube reviews on this and people really suck at describing. Don't make a video if you can't describe the scent (or at least read he description from online) or pronounce it correctly.
    Thanks again ❤️❤️❤️

    @kace50857 years ago Your collection is so awesome! I could look at this magical mystical creation called Chanel no 5 all day long. The young crowd are missing out if they go by the initial spray of Chanel no 5. It can be perceived as old lady like. But after 10 min. or so the dry down begins and so does the magic of Chanel. The sophistication, glamour and elegance of this smell will take you to another dimension where you feel better. Excellent review! ... 1

    @7723ashley8 years ago Thank you so much for this wonderful video! You have inspired me to order the pure parfum and can't wait for it to arrive! I've been using the Edt for the last month and I can't get enough of it, so intoxicating. I'm 29 and feel like No 5 is completely ageless! My best friend constantly compliments me on my fragrance yet about a year ago when we were both sniffing perfume bottles in a Macys she commented that No. 5 smelt like old people. I think you need to spray and try this fragrance before making any judgments. So many misconceptions around this one!! Thank you for your videos! I finally found someone who is obsessed with everything Chanel just as much as I am :) :) :) ... 3
  • @
    @SuperDacob8 years ago +Andreea C You are not the only one to complain about the poor lasting
    power of N°5... a lot of N°5s edt and edp poor asting power is due to
    the modern reformulations of the scent. The vintag eversions of N°5 were
    much stronger and intense... Layering with the cream will enhance
    longevity but I would also try the pure parfum. That one last for many
    hours on my skin...

    @Residenteviladicted8 years ago Heya Dacob! I was wondering if you could do a quick tutorial (if possible) on how you apply your fragrances as I'd love to know! If not, I'd love to see a detailed explanation of how you apply them. Also, do you only spray one fragrance per day or do you mix them up (e.g. different combinations of fragrances etc.) I JUST love watching your fragrance videos and reviews and think you're doing an excellent job in keeping these videos up. So really, thank you SO much for all these videos. Also, I'm planning on buying either this or no.19 for starters as I've never really used any Chanel fragrance ever. I hope you read this long message! XD! Anyways, sending lots of love from Dubai! <3 ... 1

    @pria78796 years ago Hello Dacob. I really appreciate ur love for No.5.
    I was gifted Coco Medemoiselle EDT 12 years ago and I thought I was in love with it until I tried No.5. I have EDP version and now after watching ur video will get pure perfum soon.
    I wore it in the scorching heat of India few months ago and kept getting complements the whole day. I think it smells differently each time depending upon the weather outside ( never badly ).

    I really want a bottle of No 5 now, the problem is I haven't had the chance to smell the Parfum many times, actually only once on my skin and I loved it.
    I have tried on the Eau de Parfum many times and I love it too.
    Should I go for the pure Parfum anyway?
    Thank you for the reply.
    You are quite lovely btw :)

    @andromedan63499 years ago great video... totally agree with the fact that it's all about that chemistry... as a female, 99% of the time I love perfumes that are meant to be for "male" type... and to be quite honest I never go for them because of the fact that I think o maybe they're right and this is too strong for me or whatever...I should start being more confident in this case 🙈 ... 2

    @Alphafish229 years ago Hi Dacob! Just watched this review for the 2nd time. I know, I'm obsessed with No.5 :-)!! I started to fuss around with essential oils, and based on the notes of No.5 I was able to make my own custom blended body oil to compliment and enhance the No.5 EDT. I'm just so happy I did this! The scent plays out beautifully. If you, or others who read this are interested, I can put the recipe in the comments. Let me know! xxx ... 6

    @catherinecalloway68074 years ago How does the stopper work in the pure parfum bottle? Does it simply sit there, or is the stopper securely locked in?

(I cannot afford the travel spray, as well, so I must stick to a single bottle). Would love your input! ...

    @mjf20016 years ago Do you own an Eau de Cologne in your No. 5 collection? I recently acquired a decent one 3/4s full that still smells lovely! I had to own it as it was the original formula that my mother wore exclusively when I was little. As a boy I would sneak some on my wrists whenever I thought I could get away with it!
    Would be interested in your thoughts on the vintage edc.

    @thecapsulejournal9 years ago Thanks for another great review, Dacob!
    My mum got her 1st ever perfume from my dad as a gift in the 80s, and you know what? Chanel No5 is actually her one and only perfume that she will ever wear. She stated she just can't open up to other scents, as for her Chanel No5 is just synonymous for perfume. I find this quite funny actually.
    I, on the other hand don't like No5 on myself - I believe it's just like you said - it has to do with one ones chemistry with the scent. I feel, it doesn't develop right on me.
    Nevertheless, I'll try out the pure Perfume next time when I'm at a Chanel counter. Really hope I like it!

    @mrsroyle11689 years ago Fascinating history, I was wondering if you wore chanel no5 and to my surprise you do. I'm looking to buy it and was searching YouTube for some reviews which there isn't. Your is in depth and informative especially on the different concentrations. I feel like I travel through time when you describe these scents its like a movie. I didn't know the brad Pitt advert was flop I loved it,didn't like brad but the idea to which they were taking chanel which is the future, its genderless, its timelessness,No5 being everlasting for all, its quite powerful. I wore Dior all my teens remember trying no5 in Paris and being repulsed and then just buying another dior fragrance, twenties was guerlain and in my thirties I'm suddenly intrigued by chanel ,have worn two fragrances of theirs and now I really want to see if I can wear no5. I want to experience the enigma that is this fragrance and thanks to this video I will take the plunge. ... 3
  • @
    @SerafEnd6 years ago It's the only one that I enjoy and feel comfortable wearing it, from 5 to premiere. I tried so many, and none is making me happy like Chanel 5 ...it's taking me somewhere I want to be...and also, I have a hard time smelling other perfumes on me and I tried even the most potent one, like creed or Francis Kurkdjian... Said that, glad you like it too ...namaste ... 1

    @gina21906 years ago hi Dacob , sorry to keep asking you questions , lol but u are an expert on chanel , may i ask if you have tried no 5 pure parfum since the 2014 reformulations, is it as good and lasting as earlier bottles ? ive got a 2013 bottle thats nearing the end and its sublime and lasts ages, like all day. Im looking to replace it but one i was interested in is a 2015 bottle , will it be as good ? or will have lost something , and its better to go earlier batch codes ? thanks in advance ! :) ...

  • @
    @MrsTefee8 years ago I absolutely LOVE chanel no 5 and my husband loves it on me too!! I started wearing it when I was 19/20. I was never actually interested in no.5 in my life before that..I was one of those who thought it was meant for the senior demographic and I never actually even smelled it before..I just assumed! I first tried it when my great aunt died and when my family and I were clearing out her house I found a .25 oz parfum bottle (I think i was 17 or 18, the parfum was still in the plastic packaging!) in her bathroom vanity drawer. The juice was daaaaaark and had definitely gone off (it seemed that she never used it... as it was still quite full!) but I was like what the heck Im gonna dab some on and try it...so I did! And amazingly I LOVED it even though the top notes were rather stale haha the heart and drydown were still quite nice, it was just verrryyy strong haha! Shortly after that I discovered the eau premiere version which I also LOVE and I started hoarding the little sample vials of it because I couldnt afford to buy it yet haha. My husband was the first one to buy me a bottle of n.5 (eau premiere) when we were dating (so I was almost 20 then) and then I bought the edp when he was deployed...and finally last night I bought the parfum (im 26 now) and im anxiously waiting for it in the mail!! This stuff has been through so many phases of my life now and I adore it. You are totally right how even when you wear it during the worst of times it doesnt bring you bad memories like some other perfumes do.. it just...warms you and comforts you so it doesnt matter what happens in your life while you wear it, no 5 is always going to be there for you! Have you tried the new eau premiere version in the square shape bottle? It is a little different than the tall one..I think its more subtle and softer but still great! You should try it and do a comparison video!! Anyways, sorry for my super long rant lmao. I hope you have a great day, love your videos! I subbed and cant wait to see more from you! : ) ... 2

    @ladygypsysoul1227 years ago The way I see it, with me anyway, if a perfume suits you, you personally can't smell it. The one who near you is the one who can smell it. The worst perfume would be the one that make you sneeze, then you know it's not fitted for you. As for Chanel no 5, I love it so much. Especially the Parfum. It is the best perfume in my opinion. Cos I have tried others. ...

    @TrevorBattle5 years ago Hey Dacob! So my grandmother is turning 80 and I wanted to get her a new fragrance for her birthday. Now, she’s literally been wearing Calvin Klein Eternity since the early 90s and I want to upgrade her lol. So I’m thinking, should I get her No 5 EDT or EDP? Or does it really matter? ...

    @kriti30119 years ago Your videos are very helpful! :) i just bought 2 chanel perfumes yesterday, chance eu fraiche and coco mademoiselle. But there is nothing like the no. 5! The former were too light for me, especially chance eu fraiche. Is there any perfume as special and magnetic as Chanel no. 5? do suggest! (i hvnt tried ny other chanel perfumes, i hv worn only no 5 for almost 10 ys now!) ... 3
