A newly found recording of her discussing the same with Marie Claire’s then-editor in chief Georges Belmont is being used in a new advertising campaign for the fragrance. The voice of Monroe will be accompanied by a photograph of her holding a scent bottle, taken by Ed Feingersh.<br /><span id="more-93294"></span><br />51 years after her death, Monroe can be heard saying – “They ask me: ‘What do you wear to bed? A pajama top? The bottoms of the pajamas? A nightgown?’ So I said, ‘Chanel No.5,’ because it’s the truth. And yet, I don’t want to say nude. But it’s the truth!”</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" class="b-hbp-video b-uploaded" frameborder="0" height="266" id="BLOGGER-video-8854b53a2617194b-13268" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" src="https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzHxmmMQkzIlaIE9fTald247Mp3kalHzf2txtwEjo_MFu_qpO-hFrqDIcBhvuh2kmmtyuh9LF7EAPKb_c347sY1wfQmy8Y_wvZ1-XqDlMFuRl-rJ8Gup9Zt5yYPwIn634WzV-VU&origin=debutantedebris.blogspot.com" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="320"></iframe></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Chanel will roll out a print and TV campaign featuring Monroe later this fall. Monroe takes over the No. 5 reins from the fragrance’s former, <a href="http://passion4luxury.blogspot.sg/2013/07/chanel-no-5-in-30-ounce-bottle.html">Brad Pitt</a>, who was paid a reported $7 million for his services for the brand. There is no word if Chanel is paying Monroe’s trust for use of her likeness.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div></div>
