Chanel Beauty Fragrances-Chanel – N°19 – Bottle Extract – Luxury Fragrances – 15 ml – Avvenice

Chanel – The Revolutionary Coco

Gabrielle Chanel, a strong and ambitious woman, overturned the women fashion, that was constrained within a rigid social pattern. Chanel the “modiste” didn’t belong to the Parisian aristocracy, nor to the high bourgeoisie, but she managed to make à la page the dressmakers and saleswomen’s dresses even for the rich ladies from Deauville.

She was born on August 19th, 1883, in a small village in the South of France; Coco started out in the fashion industry in 1908, creating hats in Paris and later in Deauville. In the 10s, those cities plus Biarritz saw the opening of her first shops. During the Belle Epoque, women were constrained in rigid corsets and wore pleated, draped and reinforced dresses with petticoats.

Furthermore, you have to consider that the taste of the time imposed an exotic and oriental appeal. It is not difficult to imagine how a fashion style aiming at overturning those rules was considered visionary and impudent at that time. In the same years, Paul Poiret and Mademoiselle Vionnet freed women from corselettes, while Paquin introduced a flowing shape and an Empire style waist.

Chanel – N°19 – Bottle Extract – Luxury Fragrances – 15 ml

Portrait

Bold and decisive scent. A floral-wooded-green with perfect balance, enclosed in a hand-sealed bottle with the art of baudruchage. The latest fragrance created and worn by Gabrielle Chanel. A composition without compromise, like its creator.

Olfactory Atmosphere

A bold floral-woody-green scent, full of contrasts.
A perfect balance between the intensity of the green notes of galbanum and the delicacy of the powdery notes of pale iris. Neroli di Grasse, May rose and pale iris: the noblest and rarest raw materials, grown in Grasse, enrich the Extract of N ° 19.

Inspiration

N ° 19, the other symbolic number of CHANEL.

The latest perfume created and worn by Gabrielle Chanel. A fragrance that pays homage to her date of birth, August 19, 1883.

When the idea of creating this new feminine perfume comes to her, Coco faces the reticence of her entourage: no one believes that a new fragrance can coexist with N ° 5. Coco is stubborn and orders Henri Robert to create a bold composition, as intense as N ° 5. Result? A completely different olfactory score: a bold combination of green and powdery notes. Mademoiselle died a few weeks after the launch of this new fragrance, on January 10, 1971.

“To be irreplaceable you have to be different”: the fragrance N ° 19 represents the latest sensational gesture of this uncommon, bold and sunny woman.

Art of Perfuming

The extract is the quintessence of perfume. A feminine and specific gesture. “Perfume wherever you want to be kissed,” said Gabrielle Chanel. Neck, wrist, décolleté, hollow of the elbow… A drop in the most intimate points of the body, where the heartbeat vibrates.
