Luxury is also known to be associated with resisting the passage of time and the abundance of annual creations. As Chanel No. 5 has demonstrated its continuity over time, it has attracted several generations, and this fragrance is exceptional and speaks to the depths of the soul.
With its new ambassador, Nicole Kidman, the brand has, once again, demonstrated that the fragrance is still present on the market and is back.
Thus, in this section, there is an analysis on the strategy of product, price, distribution and finally the communication of the brand with the analysis of the marketing mix.
Several years are needed between the idea of a new fragrance and its market launch. The first team sought is that of marketing. It must precisely define the concept of future perfume. Chanel No. 5, it is to impose the idea of a woman who is first and foremost a female personality and through it Gabrielle Chanel herself.
Market research is then conducted to identify consumer expectations, ascertain whether the target (the active woman, the sports woman, teenager) is in a good position in relation to competition. The marketing team must also find the new name.
Tests with consumers can better adjust the formula of the perfume. Once it is developed it has to remain for the safety tests. When it is time to launch calls for tenders from suppliers are sent.
Production could then start to arrive as quickly as possible to launch the perfume. The birth of a fragrance application takes anywhere between two and five years of preparation in the strictest confidence.
A good brand can act as a magic potion and provide a powerful attraction for example to define a product hard to describe. This is the case with perfumes. The strategies are varied and the creator does not hesitate to use extreme words.
In the case of Chanel, the product-branding is minimal, since the product is distinguished only by its number, for example N º 5. Given the weight of creation, the ‘chemical-response' has no place in the world of luxury.
Thus, what differentiates the launch of Chanel No. 5 from a conventional marketing approach is the creation and launch of the No 5 as a daring approach almost revolutionary. Luxury marketing is a marketing proposal, the initiative is still in the camp of the creator. This does not mean that market surveys are useless. They were simply used to confirm rather than exploit based not on current expectations but the reactions and preferences of the market.
Chanel refuses to sell its fragrance in the supermarket for two main reasons- the perfume has to remain a dream, a product imbued with luxury. The distribution of its products must meet strict codes of presentation and sale accompanied by personalized services. These qualitative services are part of the brand strategy.

[...] A successful new product absolutely must provide a "plus" to be more efficient, easier to use, last longer, etc. In the luxury sector, the reference to competition is not as systematic for the consumer or the company. A client does not buy the Chanel No by comparing all other scents available. She did not even ask if it is better or worse than this or that brand. She simply decided, because she liked the perfume.
