'A young, up-and-coming actress, Lily-Rose Depp is already the face for the Chanel Pearl eyewear collection launched in September 2015,' read a statement from Chanel about Lily, according to The Telegraph.

'She embodies her generation and its values of freedom and boldness to perfection, bringing to the iconic fragrance of the House her youthful freshness and beauty'.

The new scent is an invigorating and younger take on the classic Chanel No. 5, making Lily Rose Depp the perfect choice to front the campaign - which according to WWD, will be released in autumn and will be tied to the launch of the new fragrance. 

And so we wait…
