Chanel Chanel No 5 L'Eau 100th Anniversary – Ask For The Moon Limited Edition is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2021, created by Olivier Polge. Chanel No 5 L'Eau 100th Anniversary – Ask For The Moon Limited Edition opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Grasse Rose Absolute, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Iris, Vanilla, and Clean Musk. Chanel's Chanel No 5 L'Eau 100th Anniversary – Ask For The Moon Limited Edition carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This lighter take on a classic is a divisive one. Fans call it clean and fresh, perfect for a subtle everyday scent, while others find it a bit dated and not quite worth the Chanel price tag.

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.

Also Works:
Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its clean and fresh profile, make it suitable for office wear without being intrusive. While pleasant for casual outings, it lacks the bolder projection often desired for dates or formal events.

About

Chanel No 5 L'Eau opens with a burst of bright, effervescent citruses - think sparkling lemon, orange, and lime - immediately softened by the iconic aldehydic shimmer. This lively introduction soon mellows into a sophisticated floral heart, where delicate jasmine and rich Grasse rose mingle with the creamy sweetness of ylang-ylang. The dry down is a comforting embrace of clean musk, warm vanilla, and a hint of cedar, leaving a refined, close-to-skin trail.
