France · Founded 1910
Founded by Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel in 1910, Chanel has revolutionized the world of luxury fashion and beauty. The house's legendary foray into fragrance began in 1921 with the creation of Chanel No. 5, the first perfume to feature an abstract, complex blend of aldehydes and floral notes. Today, Chanel's master perfumers continue to craft olfactive masterpieces that embody elegance, independence, and timeless Parisian allure. From the vibrant and youthful Coco Mademoiselle to the deeply woody and aromatic Bleu de Chanel, each scent is meticulously formulated using the highest quality raw materials, many of which are exclusively grown for the brand in Grasse, France.
