I love how you nailed it. I always find it amusing when foreign friends ask me why I don’t have a Chanel or Dior bag, and I have to explain that such expensive bags are considered very socially inappropriate in France, even when you can afford them.

]]> Comment on 15 Most Classic French Perfumes of All Time by Shirley https://thefrench.com/perfumes/#comment-13918 Tue, 22 Oct 2024 12:24:57 +0000 https://thefrench.com/?p=2333#comment-13918 Sorry to say, I SO agree with you! Chanel No.5 is no longer the same. I won’t waste my money on it. There are no perfumes worth buying that I can find. You are absolutely right, no soul, certainly don’t last. The last Chanel No.5 Body Creme that my husband bought me, years ago, I try not to use too often for fear that when it’s gone, I’ll have nothing. He passed away 1 1/2 years ago and when I wear it for a special occasion it makes me feel he’s still with me. I keep thinking if I take a trip to Paris maybe I can find the original scent there. I’ve been looking up vintage perfumes and although I really don’t want a used perfume, that appears to be the only option. Thank God there are still vintage available. Powder too, I have found several that are unopened. Contemplating purchasing My Sin, Arpege, a couple of others. True…so sad.
