Five drops of Chanel No.5 and now you’ll get a drop of Brad Pitt aswell …

Regarded as one of the most feminine products to ever grace the shelves, Chanel No.5 is still seen as the vanguard for femme fatale ever since its first release 90 years ago.  This image of seduction and desire that Chanel have created for this famous perfume has been endorsed by many highly successful  women such as the likes of Catherine Deneuve, Nicole Kidman and not forgetting the everlasting Marilyn Manroe who in a 1954 interview, when she was asked what she wore to bed, the movie star provocatively responded “five drops of Chanel No. 5.”

So in history it is noted that Chanel No.5 is the essential product that a woman should have in their closet but looks like the world famous perfume line is shaking things up. Having catered their marketing campaign to women for the past 90 years they have announced that they will be endorsed by its first ever male celebrity and who none better than Brad Pitt.

Our note: When we think of Chanel No.5 you always picture a timeless beauty (don’t get us wrong Brad’s an endless beauty) but you envision a woman holding the renowned bottle. Do we think that this is a right move on Chanel’s part, Coco Chanel had often said “Look for the woman in the dress. If there is no woman, there is no dress”, if we follow in Coco Chanel’s ideology what is about to happen is that the woman and the dress is to disappear but that being said we are living in a different age compared to Coco.
