FIFTH AVENUE
The Story
Fifth Avenue is Elizabeth Arden's tribute to the most famous shopping street in the world—and the prestigious salon that has called it home since 1910. Launched in 1996, this rich floral woody captures the elegance of a stroll down Fifth Avenue in spring: blooming lilacs, the warmth of amber, and the quiet confidence of a woman who knows exactly where she is going. It has been a global bestseller for nearly three decades.
