I suspect that Chanel would refute it - their current official line is that they've found various raw materials which they can use to make No 5 regulation-proof - but you never know exactly where the truth lies in such matters.<br /><br />The shape poems are pretty, aren't they :-)Persolaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192014353722036319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738735825185930519.post-58859142969757804782013-05-11T02:38:37.513+01:002013-05-11T02:38:37.513+01:00Regarding the timing/reason for the exhibit: I wou...Regarding the timing/reason for the exhibit: I would assume that Chanel is always trying to at least maintain the profile of No.5. But I'm wondering if Chanel is trying to make the argument that this scent is so iconic and influential that it deserves some sort of formal cultural designation that would protect it from incoming regulations.<br /><br />-- Lindaloo<br /><br />PS Thanks for Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
