I had the privilege to visit Mademoiselle Chanel’s apartment at Rue Cambon, Paris above the principal luxury store. I was glad to make it. Though the store and fitting room are known, the apartment itself is hardly opened to mass.

I never saw the new Chanel n°5 new ad while I was living on March in the past 5 months. Audrey Tautou is the new face of the famous perfume. She follows Nicole Kidman 5-year-as-égérie. Audrey Tautou is a French actress famed since her breakthrough role as Amélie in Le fabuleux destion d’Amélie Poulain or Amélie (international title). Her appointment as Chanel n°5 spokesmodel comes with her role as Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel in Coco Avant Chanel or Coco before Chanel (international title).
