Chanel No.5 Eau Premiere & Beauté Initiale

In October of 2007, Chanel will launch Chanel No.5 Eau Premiere, a new version of the iconic Chanel No.5. Eau Premiere is marketed to be a modern and softer interpretation of N°5 and “will incorporate all of N°5’s original ingredients, including rose absolute, jasmine, neroli and ylang-ylang, but rebalanced in a lighter, airier formula by master perfumer Jacques Polge.” Also a new ad shot featuring Nicole Kidman, and photographed by Patrick Demarchelier, will be featured in fashion and beauty magazines in November. The fresher reincarnation of the most cherished fragrance in the world will retail for $125 (150mL/5oz). Bloomingdale’s is promoting the new fragrance August 30th and September 1st at its Bergen County, NY store.
