New Chanel at Bergdorf Goodman


I received an exciting phone call today about new offerings from Chanel! First, Chanel No. 5 Eau Premiere is now available! It is touted as a "light, softer, fresher" interpretation of No. 5. I adore No. 5 but I know many who cannot wear it. Try the new Eau Premiere which retails at $125 for 5 oz. Also, the Chanel counter is offering a gift set featuring parfum samples of the best selling fragrances, including No. 5, Coco, Coco Mademoiselle and Allure! This set may just be the first item on my 2008 Christmas list. We all know parfums last longer and are more concentrated, so a few applications of each would suit me just fine! For more information, contact Josie at the Chanel counter: 1.888.774.2424.
Update: Eau Premiere made its debut in 2007 so please take that into account when reading this post. Bergdorf Goodman announced it as new, but it is actually one year old. Thanks to Gail for researching the matter!

Honey, I highly recommend the $95
5-er of parfum- 17.5 mls of perfume [ 1/4 oz. is $95 alone].

The Eau Premiere is truly lovely.

[Don't fear the unknown, darling !
You're MORE than equal to the task. I have zero doubts...]

I love Chanel but didnt know they were bringing out this product, what a calamity that could have been! I must get my guy to get me this for Christmas!!

Hi! I did just recently see this at Saks and I was puzzled - I'm sure this is the one I bought last year (I'm really sure, I just sprayed in on the other day!). So, unless I'm more out of it than I realize (ugh), it is not new. Anyway, I need to check when I get home tonight, but in the meantime....

Forgive me if I'm misunderstanding their way of presenting the "eau premier", and I did find the following which confirmed my 2007 purchase: Chanel No°5 Eau Premiere comes in 150ml bottle (US$125) and will be available at department stores and other Chanel retailers in October 2007. Chanel N°5 Eau Premiere is a new fragrance and it was introduced in 2007.

Hello Gail! Thank you for clarifying. I could have sworn I saw this one at Saks last year as well so I was a little taken aback when BG pronounced it as new. I will edit the post. Thanks again!

Hi! Thanks for your follow-up, and I'm glad to hear you also remembered this from last year. I wonder why they (Saks and BG) are presenting it as new. I'll try to remember to ask my Chanel person at Saks next time I'm there (which I really shouldn't let happen too soon!).
PS - I hope I didn't sound rude and like I was correcting YOU, that was not my intent at all! I was confused by the marketing, not your post!.

I did stop by Saks (its on my way home) and my Chanel person said she wasn't really sure why they were saying it was new other than last year it was only out for a few months. So maybe now its newly permanent. Oh, I saw the gift set of the parfum samples - how cute - I want!
