Ever since I first discovered Chanel No. 5 Eau Premiere ($106.50, Amazon.com) a few months ago, I’ve been absolutely crazy about the scent ever since. So imagine my excitement when I discovered Chanel No. 5 Essential Bath Oils ($75.00, Nordstrom.com). Infused with essential ylang-ylang oil, with an aroma that has been found in medical journals to have a “harmonizing effect” and several humectants (including avocado oil) to draw water into the skin, the Chanel No. 5 Essential Bath Oil also features the classic Chanel No. 5 scent – and a luxurious glass bottle.
Chanel No. 5 Essential Bath Oil is only available at Nordstrom. I say that this is one indulgence that is well-worth it, especially considering how many bath oils and gels nowadays contain high concentrations of potentially irritating sodium lauryl sulfate. With that said, this is one luxe gift for every beauty-crazed bath lover on your list!
