    It's the aldehydes that decide for you. Love them and this becomes essential. Find them too much and nothing else matters. Vintage French elegance doesn't negotiate.Air de France
    The aldehydes are the whole point. Most houses use them as a quiet supporting act. Chanel put them center stage, let synthetic chemistry lead instead of follow. It's not for everyone.Chanel No 5 Parfum
