Chanel No5 Retrospective III: Salvador Dali Appears on a Flacon of No5 {Perfume Images}
The flacon of No 5 as part of XXth century art iconography
Two icons meet, not fortuitously : the Dali moustache and the Chanel No5 bottle
But before that, Coco Chanel and Salvador Dali
Dali's nose disappeared given up in sacrifice to Baal
He doesn't need it anymore, it smells of the No 5
Surrealism gets pulled in the direction of pop culture
Chanel No 5 wins
