Call all the ladies out they’re in their finery
A hundred jewels on throats
A hundred jewels between teeth
Now bring my boys in their skin in craters like the moon
The moon we love like a brother while he glows through the room
We live in cities you’ll never see onscreen
Not very pretty but we sure know how to run things
Livin in ruins of a palace within my dreams
And you know we’re on each other’s team
we’re on each other’s team
And you know we’re on each other’s team
Official Chanel No. 5 Advert Video
Behind the Music: Chanel & Lorde
The Chanel No. 5 Advert Song features a special rendition of “Team,” a hit originally written and performed by New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde. Released in 2013, the song’s themes of loyalty and shared dreams were reimagined for this campaign. In a unique twist, the version heard in the commercial is a soulful cover performed by the face of the fragrance herself, Academy Award-winning actress Marion Cotillard.
Directed by Johan Renck, the advertisement shows Cotillard dancing on a golden, cratered moon—a visual directly inspired by the song’s lyrics. This campaign, launched by Chanel (founded in 1910 by Coco Chanel), modernizes the legendary No. 5 perfume, blending classic Parisian luxury with contemporary musical edge.
