Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - N°5 Premiere Eau de Toilette

This is Chanel N°5 for the modern age: utterly gorgeous and elegant, often described as a lighter, fizzier, less 'scream-y' version of the original. Prepare to be complimented. Beware of reformulations.

Our Verdict - L'Aimant Eau de Parfum

Coty L'Aimant is either a timeless, affordable classic akin to Chanel No. 5 or simply a cheap, dated soapy mess. Its longevity and projection vary wildly, but it's universally agreed to offer serious bang for your buck if it hits right.

Also Works:
