The nose presented her with a visionary composition that made unprecedented use of aldehydes. Mademoiselle chose the fifth sample of the fragrance, and decided to name it simply N°5. In 1924, she launched the N°5 eau de toilette. Art of perfuming The eau de toilette comes in a spray for more generous use, with smooth and supple application on skin or inside clothing.
