The new face for Chanel No. 5 is the lovely French actress, Audrey Tatou. The new worldwide campaign short film titled “Train de Nuit” was directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet who also has directed films such as A Very Long Engagement and our all time favourite Amelie.

The film is a tale of chance and fate, a brief encounter between a man and a woman travelling to Istanbul on the Orient Express night train with an intertwining of two destinies that will be brought together by a scent like no other. Today is May 5th and even New York City has declared today as Chanel No.5 Day with Saks Fifth Avenue.

Chanel No. 5 is one of the world’s most famous womens fragrances since 1921. Coco Chanel’s very modern fashion philosophy reflects Chanel No 5 as a rich modern floral blend of Grasse Jasmine, May Rose, Neroli, Bourbon Vanilla and Ylang-Ylang with gentle precious woods. Well, we fancy the classic bottle shape but one of our team members thinks it smells like cat pee… Love it or hate it?

Let us know what you think of the new commercial. Is this classic perfume still relevant for today’s modern woman?
