When Chanel No. 5 launched in 1921, it was modern to the point of what is this, Coco Chanel, you tricksy minx? Its peachy florals and woods shimmer behind a glittering curtain of aldehydes. No. 5s powdery coolness is warmed with mating-season musk - only revealed on the skin, like a secret between lovers.

The No. 5 parfum and eau de toilette are still more or less the real deal, sticking to the original blueprint. Im not so crazy about the 80s-era eau de parfum, which is thicker, sharper, and more synthetic. Its like a caricature the original eau de toilette drawn with a big fat marker pen.

It took 2008s Eau Première, with its more nuanced and youthful interpretation, to finally lasso me into the No. 5 corral. Eau Première has the same DNA as No. 5, but with fresher, more transparent versions of the notes.

To my nose, the old glittering curtain of aldehydes is now a soft fizzy sparkle, playfully highlighting a lemony-orange kick-off. The citrus is the new kid on the block here, putting a little jut in the ladys strut.

The fizziness deepens into what were told is jasmine, ylang-ylang, iris and rose, but what I only know as that classic No. 5 smell. As Eau Première and my skin get down to business, they release a soapy butteryness. Its pretty and rich with a light touch, like Edie Sedgwick before the heroin.

Maybe Eau Première is the Cliff Notes version of Chanel No. 5, but if thats what it takes for me to appreciate the legendary classic, Eau Première one gorgeous-smelling study aid. Im Katie Puckrik, and I smell.
