Chanel No. 5 brings the heat

My grandmother wore this scent, and the air of mystery surrounding this perfume captures her personality perfectly. Scenes from this take me right back to Paris... and make me question the way women are portrayed as sexual objects that men can't resist (Gender & the Media college course in action). Sleeping naked on a public train? I think not. Still evokes an emotion I can't help but get sucked into.


I think I enjoyed watching a brief history of Chanel No. 5 more than that video however. Check out this site for images of Coco, what flowers are used in the formula, and how it has reinvented itself.
