Coco Chanel
Chanel No. 5 was created in 1921 for a woman named Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel, by Ernest Beaux. He used blends of jasmine and rose with a base of sandalwood. Chanel believed women should wear perfume wherever they hoped to be kissed. Today Chanel No.5 sells a bottle every 30 seconds.
No. 5 was chosen to be launched out of a series of 10 Chanel perfumes made by Beaux.
Chanel was known to have said that "Joy was for women who wanted to put their petty morals on display [by wearing the world's costliest perfume]", about this perfume created just for her!
