The new version of the classic fragrance is lighter, fresher, softer, more delicate, and suitable for younger generation. Chanel N°5 Eau Premiere includes all original ingredients of N°5: rose absolute, jasmine, neroli and ylang-ylang, vetiver, amber and sandalwood. Ylang-ylang for this fragrance comes from the Comoro Islands, and Jasmine from Chanel-owned fields in Grasse.

The author of this new creation is a Chanel in house perfumer Jacques Polge, a successor of the only two other Chanel perfumers, Ernest Beaux and Henri Robert.
