Could a railway force Chanel No. 5 out of its historic home?


(MENAFN) Chanel has said it will leave a historic perfume site in France if plans for a high-speed train line affecting its jasmine fields go ahead.

French rail operators say modernisation work on the French Riviera network is desperately necessary.

But in an open letter, the luxury brand said it would be a disaster for its "artisanal activities" in Grasse.

The company says it takes about 1,000 jasmine flowers to make a 30ml bottle of its famous No. 5 perfume.
