Is Chanel No 5 overrated ? I got it for Christmas and was initially excited but the scent is ‘meh’? Am I just a barbarian or is this scent just old and nothing to write home about ? Educate me please ?

I prefer Gabrielle Chanel. Not a fan of No 5 either.

It’s not overrated but that doesn’t mean you have to like it

Agreed ^ Fragrance is highly subjective, someone else may love it but it’s ok if you don’t like it. Can you exchange or regift it? Worst case it will look nice on your shelf :)

I bought No 5 for myself and can’t even wear it …so grandma .
I like Coco Mademoiselle and Chance much more

Count me in! I like the Wild Bluebell the most. How about you?

I went to the mall to buy a few things and stop by the perfume counter to smell it I didn’t like it

Are you asking the internet to inform your opinion? 🧐

I think the person bought it more for the brand recognition than the scent. There are so many other amazing perfumes out there.

Definitely not for everyone

Kind of seeking validation here but also happy to take feedback. Is 22 too young for luxury goods? I’m obsessed with handbags. Like literally. I own 2 LV, 1 Chanel, 1 YSL, 1 Gucci, and just bought another Gucci. Idk what’s wrong with me🧐but I’ve been feeling super antsy and dissatisfied with life that I seek thirst in binge shopping, or even spending hours looking at handbags. Fyi I’m really not spoiled, most of the bags are hard earned and I consider myself to be ambitious

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?
