The iconic Chanel N°5 has been redesigned
Chanel N°5 Eau de Parfum, £130 SHOP and N°5 L'Eau Eau de Toilette, £130 SHOP
For the first time in the fashion house’s history, the legendary Chanel N°5 fragrance has been redesigned in red, a limited-edition which is on sale now.
Known for its clean rectangular clear glass bottle with a facetted stopper and minimalist branding, the look of Chanel N°5 is as distinctive as its scent. Now, for Christmas 2018, it comes cloaked in red, marking the brand’s first ever alteration of its iconic packaging.
Why? Besides pleasing collectors and fragrance fans, plus Christmas shoppers looking for true festive feels, red holds special meaning for the house of Chanel. It’s “the colour of life, the colour of blood,” said the late Gabrielle Chanel, who only wanted to dress women in black, white, beige, gold – and red.

The ruby red Chanel N°5 bottles will be available in either glass (for the 100ml Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum) or Baccarat crystal (for the luxury 900ml Parfum) – of which only 55 have been produced.
Shop the limited edition Chanel N°5 online and in stores from November 2nd.
