We describe the first implementation of narrow‐band coherent Rayleigh scattering (CRS) for high spectral resolution of CRS line shapes. Using intensities in the 10 9 W/cm 2 range we find that the measured line shapes of CO 2 , N 2 and Xe gases at room temperature are in good agreement with a CRS model that assumes weakly perturbing fields. We compare our results with broadband CRS and discuss the importance of phase‐matching requirements for narrow‐band CRS. Finally, we show that a spectral narrowing in the CRS profile is predicted at intensities that are approximately an order of magnitude greater than those used in our experiments.
