A 1990 commercial for Chanel No. 5, starring Carole Bouquet, directed by Ridley Scott. This was added to the Chanel channel at YouTube yesterday. Thanks Chanel, please add more, and hey, why don't all perfume brands put their vintage ads online?

Ha ha, I remember this. Funny how I never noticed at the time that she has to lean so far back to be kissed by him, it looks as though her neck might break. Very stylish though, and utterly of the time too.
That lean back is perfect with the hat — but yeah, wouldn’t risk my own neck for it!
Nice add but somehow weird to me, maybe because a swimmimg pool is not what comes into mind when I think of n5
IIRC, though, it is not the only No. 5 ad w/ a swimming pool. But I know what you mean.
Yikes, I still have those earrings. And a very similar hat. No No. 5, no swimming pool, no swan-like neck. Ah well.
Hey. The hat & earrings are very important.
Lovely! Carole Bouquet is my favourite of all the No 5 models (although maybe Brad Pitt will change my mind!).
Unless they make him shave & cut his hair, I’m sticking w/ Carole.
