Chanel Chanel No 5 100th Anniversary – Ask For The Moon Limited Edition is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Jacques Polge. Chanel No 5 100th Anniversary – Ask For The Moon Limited Edition opens with Bergamot, Neroli, Ylang-Ylang, and Peach, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Iris, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Chanel's Chanel No 5 100th Anniversary – Ask For The Moon Limited Edition carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

It's the same old No. 5 in a fancy new frock. If you're a die-hard collector or simply adore the classic, this limited edition bottle is a lovely display piece, but don't expect a new olfactive journey.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Opens with a distinctive aldehydic sparkle, brightened by bergamot and a creamy touch of ylang-ylang and peach. This leads into a rich, powdery heart of rose, jasmine, and iris, evoking a sense of classic femininity. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of warm sandalwood and vanilla, grounded by earthy vetiver and oakmoss, leaving a soft, comforting trail.
