Note: Please understand that this website is not affiliated with the Chanel company in any way, it is only a reference page for collectors and those who have enjoyed the Chanel fragrances.

The goal of this website is to show the present owners of the Chanel company how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back the perfume!

Please leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the perfume, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories), who knows, perhaps someone from the company might see it.

Chanel Chance Black - NOT REAL

 I have been scouring the internet looking for the very latest in fake perfumes so that I can alert my readers about these counterfeits. Today I came across a fake perfume called "Chanel Chance Black" - this is NOT an authentic fragrance by Chanel. The bottle has two designs which mimic the original Chance bottle, however, it is black in color and has gold trim. One bottle has a compass design and "Chanel Chance" in gold script and is fitted with a golden cap. The other bottle simply says "Chanel Chance" and has a black cap. The boxes are shown below:

DO NOT PURCHASE - THESE ARE NOT GENUINE CHANEL FRAGRANCES - CHANEL DOES NOT PRODUCE "CHANCE BLACK" OR PUT "CHANEL CHANCE" INTO A BLACK BOTTLE.

Prices of Chanel No. 5 in the 1940s

In the 1940's many stores offered perfumes in dram sizes, i was much more affordable to those going through wartime. But the regular size bottles were still sold, however, there were shortages of the fragrances being exported to the USA. Some stores also had sales on the perfumes from time to time.
