About the aromas of Chanel, you can talk a lot, but in order to truly understand them you need to breathe them. The history of the aromas of Chanel's house is as eccentric as its founder. Not having time to enjoy the loud success of her collection of clothes, the Great Mademoiselle decides to supplement the image of a woman with her scent. In 1921, she turned to the famous perfumer Ernest Bo, who once served in the royal court and miraculously escaped from the revolution in Russia. Coco Chanel asked to create an artificial fragrance that will smell like a woman. As Coco herself said: "Flowers should smell flowers, and a woman should smell like a woman." She believed that the floral scent - this is only one of the smells of a fair sex, but not the main one. So began the great story of the birth of new female fragrances Coco Chanel.
