My Chanel No.5 Love

The perfume #Chanel No.5 is, of course, a legendary perfume. But for me, it's extra special, here's why. It smells great and the scent is legendary and it is. An unparalleled exotic scent that stays with you all day and/or evening after application and is for me personally it #WAEAWARDS2022 #Chanelnr5 was my husband's first gift, I was 16 years old at the time and it became THE perfume that according to my husband belonged to me. In the year we celebrated our 12.5 year wedding, I received another bottle #Chanelnr5 from him and a few weeks later he became ill, terminally ill and our children and my love, my best friend, husband and lover would not join me in our watching kids grow up and we wouldn't grow old together, like you imagine. We had to say goodbye in May 2001 🥲 Then suddenly everything is different... When cleaning up the items needed for his care, we found a note for each of us in which my love said that there was a farewell gift for each of us, for our children and for me and then your world collapses again and the loss is so big and your heart breaks again. For me, there was a ring that said I had taken care of him after he got sick, but the following affected me the most, even now that I'm going to share it with you. A note with great difficulty written on it, for you my dearest a bottle of our Chanel No. 5 perfume, if you wear that, know that I will always be with you. The wonderful scent will make you relive wonderful memories of our 22 years together and know that I will always watch over you, our love does not end but will always last until we are together again. This is 21 years ago and the bottle of Chanel No.5 is the bottle I received from my unforgettable husband and lover and I will never put that bottle away. True love is infinite and survives everything, even time, just like Chanel No. 5, which is why this perfume is my award-winning product every year. I wasn't sure I would share this with you, but I decided to share it with you at this uncertain time for many of us. The message is; True love conquers everything, even death and is sometimes the only thing we have, even if you were only allowed to be together for 22 years. (I was 16 when I got my first bottle of perfume from Chanel, and I was 38 when I got the last one from my loved one) Now, 21 years later, it's still my favorite perfume. #Chanelno5 #weareeves #WAEAWARDS2022
