Academy Award-nominated Margot Robbie is taking the reins as the new face of Chanel No. 5, starring in a stunning campaign. This iconic perfume, first launched in 1921, has continued to captivate generations over a century later.
Margot Robbie for Chanel No. 5 Ad
In Karim Sadli’s striking photograph, Margot exudes effortless chic. She wears a bold red tweed jacket and skirt and lounges alongside a massive, oversized version of the No. 5 bottle.
But it’s not just the visuals that make this campaign unforgettable. The scent itself is a lesson in luxury perfumery. With a delicate balance of jasmine, neroli, may rose, vanilla, and sandalwood, Chanel No. 5’s floral notes are as timeless as they are tantalizing.
The accompanying short film, directed by Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino, takes the campaign to new heights. Set to the hypnotic beats of Daft Punk’s Veridis Quo; the film follows Robbie and Jacob Elordi as two lovers whose paths continue to miss.
The tension builds to a dramatic climax as the pair take separate plunges into the pool, the ripples a poignant reminder of the fragility of human connection.
