Chanel #5 is my signature fragrance ❤️

[@Anderson_Martins]

I've loved Chanel 5 for a couple of years now, thank you so much for sharing these!! Madame Rochas is one I would recommend if you like No5!

[@eternalypissed]

This is such a wonderful idea! I hope you make more "if you like this, you will like this" videos in the future for different perfumes.

[@anadmleska3794]

I do love Chanel no5 too. It is my signature scent.

[@skinbycapricorn]

Been lurking on your videos, this one gets me to hit the subscribe button 😄. Love aldehyde, love No5.

[@Brightfantasy]

I’m 30, and I’ve adored No.5 since my early 20’s! I love it so much that I bought the EDT (because it’s closer to the OG 20’s formula) to wear for my elopement this past fall! That memory is now forever attached to it!

[@Donna677.]

Thank you for sharing these. I love Chanel no’ 5. also love Chanel Coco equally. Im around your age too, maybe it’s a generational thing..but gosh they are so beautiful. I also like Timeless and purchased Rumba on your suggestion…love it too. I will have to check out those last 2 you showed. Thanks so much for sharing these suggestions.

[@bonniel4325]

Thank you for this fun video. I adore No5 Eau Premiere because it is a modern, more citrusy No5. But I still enjoy all versions of No5. Now that the Wertheimers are getting so obscenely greedy, and setting eye gouging prices for Chanel perfumes, I appreciate having other options that are affordable. I've heard the original Vicky Tiel is very similar to No5.

[@pamelabrown8467]

Thanks for sharing your video take care ❤️

[@salomegreeneyes1542]

Hi My mom wore Arpege! She always smelled amazing! I really love aldehydes! I think Chanel N5 is a gorgeous fragrance I wore Jovan musk in high school and I still do My favorite Jovan fragrance was Women. This was great ! I need to check out Timeless. Now I see why I enjoy WindSong it definitely reminds me of Chanel N5 Thanks!😊

[@andrejastajnko5352]

Another fragrance that is in the same genre as Chanel No. 5 but is much more affordable is Jill Sander No. 4, named after the German designer Jill Sander.

[@ambermoon5720]

Oh yes, Chanel no 5 is a firm favourite...as well as Jovan Musk which I happen to be wearing this evening! I will have to grab Timeless on my next Avon order, I keep meaning to, but now you've sealed it.

[@mumbamumba437]

Great list RuthAnne. I have Avon Timeless edt, a plain tall bottle.

[@danielap252]

Thank you for your suggestions! I have some of these and I will look to try the others. I think you would like Chantilly by Dana too. Also, you could try Chamade by Guerlain, a soapy aldehydic with a sort of bitter note.

[@jojojoanne1992]

Hi, i am 29 and love n5! And eau premier. Love your video's! Wil you do a perfume collection video?

[@thinkpink7568]

Hi, I think L'aimant by Coty is similar to No 5 and is very nice, you can get it in a body spray as well as perfume x Thank you for your videos, I really enjoy them 💕

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

Thank you, put this on my purchase list

[@thinkpink7568]

Have you tried Je Reviens by Worth x

[@frigioiudanielmarius7252]

Thank you very much for the information 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎

[@IceKateByMoonLight]

Chanel no 5 is my second favorite perfume ever. Thank you! Someone else on youtube said coty l'aiment is similar too. It is only 15 dollars on eBay. I need to try it. It came out a few years after no 5. I love aldehydes!

[@gi2121]

I think you should have a go at Cléa from Yves Rocher. It's simply wonderful, and one of my favorites fragrances ever. It's aldehydic, soapy and warm, slightly sweet but also ever so salty, like warm skin. It gets very often compared to number 5. In my opinion they're from the same family, but I very much prefer Cléa.

[@writerforlifeify]

I recommend layering White Shoulders with Jovan Musk; also WS with Fancy Nights.

[@JuttaBerlin]

Chanel No 5 is not my favourite, but I'd like to recommend a light, bright, fresh flanker - Chanel 5 L'eau: in the dry-down, you get a nice, delicate smell of Chanel 5. Can be used day, night, office, hospital - everywhere, would be a great signature fragrance, too.

[@karmicrafts5498]

Thanks! I love Rumba and Arpege I’ll revisit Timeless.

[@perfumetales]

I am coco kind of girl. I have to be in the mood to wear n5 edp. I reach more for the edt. love its versatility, it is so pretty. Awesome video 💞💞💞

[@Sephirothshinra]

i was wandering through multiple perfumes from local store as a gift and among them was Rassasi Afshan after watching multiple Videos this one convinced me to Choice Rassasi Afshan is among them . other reviews mostly gave a So_So opinion about Afshan ,but this one is Absolutely perfect detailed Comparison review . i bought Jovan Musk For Man For Myself as well by The Way . and Sansiro Exsus Black which is a fine Fragrance resemblance of Abercrombie and Fitch Fierce appreciated for the video

[@takemyjobpleeez]

Mom wore Windsong for years. To me, it's more woody-aldehydic, like L'air du Temps, and Fidji.... not as "round" and full as No.5 as I remember. It has been a long ago, though.

[@MargieB51]

Love love love No number five it’s a little out of my price bracket a little out of my budget college college and more college for kids

[@nikolacacov5365]

My first experience with Afshan was almost horrible. I didn’t like it in the beginning. Then I put it on the shelf and forgot about it. One day I decided to give it a chance and for me it became very special scent. Now I’m pretty happy with Afshan and I find that it is a beast in terms of projection and longevity. On clothes it’s stayes like…forever

[@erinpatricia4]

Lady Stetson is pretty close too. Like Chanel n 5 with some spice .

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

Lady stetson is closer to Chanel no22 I think , both of which are similar to No5 😄

[@takemyjobpleeez]

BTW, you should try Rasasi Esraa. It's an airy, creamy, yellow floral. Baghari by Robert Piguet is a powdery dream, too. A cosy, orange infused powder scent, with white florals... like the best orange cream-cicle scent imaginable.

[@JuttaBerlin]

Another variation would be Chanel 22 (Les Exclusifs = expensive) which was launched one year after No 5 and smells similiar. I like it very much, but only have a 10 ml decant . I read on wikipedia about Ernest Beaux's development of this perfume, legal battles, recipe, ingredients, marketing and so on - so interesting.

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

Would love to try No22 but I wouldn't spend that much money when there are so many affordable scents out there ♥️

[@summerrose4286]

@@ruthannemackinnon588 it reminds me of l'air du temps.

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

@@summerrose4286 L'ait du temps is on my list ♥️

[@summerrose4286]

@@ruthannemackinnon588 it's lovely, and I hope you enjoy it. One Grandma wore one, and one Grandma wore the other, and I noticed when they wore these perfumes they smelled alike. 🌸❤

[@lawsdraws]

Great video! I love 'similar to' suggestions as it's fun discovering new scents and can often lead one down a frgrant rabbit hole! I love No.5 EDP but I get a real kick out of the EDT, as it's got more fizzy energy (if that makes any sense!) - are there any here that would lean more towards the EDT vibe?

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

I am afraid I'm not familiar with No5 EDT having only worn the EDP

[@daniatoledo7657]

Hi 💗 love your work 💗 please, I want to ask you something...your First from Van Cleef & Arpels is an eau de toilette, eau de parfum or parfum? Which one is more similar to Chanel 5? I really want to buy First edt, love vintage scents 💗 greetings from Chile and congratulations for your videos. Please never stop, I adore your content 🤗

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

My bottle of First is EDT. Thank you so much for your kind words ♥️

[@daniatoledo7657]

I finally have in my hands First but the edp, I'm in love 💗 It's so beautiful 💗

[@writerforlifeify]

L'Aimant by Coty (1927) is widely deemed a dupe for no 5.

[@jojojoanne1992]

I am curious. Are you going to rebuy chanel n5? Because you have a lot of perfumes like that?

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

After my two bottles are empty I may repurchase, depends on where I'm at on my to buy list

[@lauraharvill6774]

Climat is sooo close.

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

Yes I thought of including Climat but thought it was too green but yes it's like a green No5
