I can’t remember if I’ve ever mentioned that when Mr BBB (before he was Mr BBB) brought me back a bottle of Chanel No. 5 from a work trip. I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a factor in whether to say yes or no the proposal that came some months later (because, yes, I’m that shallow). So, I can’t resist any excuse to talk about this fragrance because it’s sealed in my heart.
On 30th October, Chanel are releasing two mini sizes – 35ml – of both Chanel No.5 and Chanel No. 5 Eau Premiere – perfect to pop in your handbag or for travel. They’re £49 each. It’s not big news, but what is – quite literally – is that Chanel are also releasing the Parfum version of No.5 (rather than EDT) in a 900ml bottle in a crystal faceted version. There will be only 50 available, in numbered bottles.
The Chanel team haven’t even given me the price on this so I’m expecting it’s a remortgage job. What do you reckon? £10K? We can have a guessing game and I’ll try and find out what it is.

Sell a kidney perhaps for the 900mls size. LOL
Aw I love mini’s and great that they remind you of a little backstory. Love it when a product / item does that 🙂 Plus it would also seal the deal for me.My guess for the 900ml is £9375, as the 100ml is £96 in Boots ha!
These look gorgeous and they would be absolutely adorable on any girl’s dressing table, so simple yet so elegant! I love Chanel fragrances although I’m not sure I’ve tried this one before, I’d love to give it a go as I’m currently fragrance obsessed! xx

Now thinking that on average a 100ml is averaging £800 (if it was purchased as a 30ml bottle) then it would be £7,200 for the perfume alone so I think you’re 10k estimate is not that bad.
If 100ml is £96 then 900ml is just 9 times bigger so it will cost about £1000
We currently sell the 900ml parfum in Selfridges which is £3600, however this isn’t limited edition.
Hi!
Just wondered which stores are selling these 35ml bottles? Can’t seem to find them anywhere – boots, self ridges (online)…
Thanks x
It may be in Chanel stores but they’re usually nationwide. x
