Bleu de Chanel (Chanel)

Bleu de Chanel: This all-time classic has become a staple in many men’s collections, and there’s a good reason for that. In this review, I’ll share my thoughts on the smell, longevity, and why it’s such a crowd-pleaser. Let’s dive into the world of “blue fragrances”.

Review: Bleu de Chanel - Chanel

Quick Facts:

  • Scent Profile: citrus, woody
  • Season: all-seasons
  • Longevity: average
  • Occasion: very versatile
  • Price: $$

Smell:

Bleu de Chanel is the original fragrance that started the trend of what we now refer to as “blue fragrances”. These versatile scents are designed so that anyone can wear them on any occasion – be it the office, a date, or just a casual day out. It’s this versatility that makes Bleu de Chanel one of the most popular choices for men.

The scent itself has a woody aroma with a hint of citrus, striking the perfect balance between fresh and sophisticated. One of the noteworthy things about Bleu de Chanel is that it comes in three concentrations: Eau de Toilette (EdT), Eau de Parfum (EdP), and Parfum. The EdT is more citrusy, the EdP offers a balanced experience, and the Parfum leans towards a heavier, woodier, and less citrusy scent.

Depending on the climate you’re in, you can choose the concentration that suits you best: the EdT for mild climates, the EdP for all-year-round use, and the Parfum for those colder winter months. However, please note that even the EdT is a too heavy scent for the hottest of days.

Longevity:
