Description
Henri Robert created Chanel No. 19 perfume especially for Coco Chanel, reflecting the qualities attributed to her by an admirer: witty, outspoken, supremely confident and intensely feminine. The perfume was released to the world in 1971, just before her death. The number 19 celebrates Coco's birthday on the 19th of August. (She was clearly a Leo!). Since its creation, Chanel No. 19 perfume has had a passionately loyal following. Wearers shouldn't be surprised if people ask them to reveal the name of their fragrance...Coco Chanel was once accosted by an American stranger who wanted to know the same thing. A wonderful tribute, she remarked, for a woman of her age (87!) and for Chanel No. 19 perfume. The scent begins with audacious floral and green notes (Neroli, Galbanum), followed by a meeting of May Roses and Irises from Florence. The finale: a chime of Chypre with a subtle, woody Vetiver note.United state of amarica
