Every time I first spray this I get this fantasy that I’m wearing a classic black Ralph Lauren tuxedo with a pair of Ferragamo’s. Chanel created an extremely attractive mass appealing bold elegant sexy versatile scent DNA that they know would be loved by consumers and remain that way.

I slept on this for years and regret it, it’s incredible juice and I’m glad it’s staying somewhat under the radar. It smells like your run of the mill Bleu De Chanel but compared to the EDP it evolves more as it dries down. BLEU DE CHANEL proposes a full line of shaving and body products for an intensified scent throughout the day. Both EDP and Parfum doesn't last long on my skin, but on my leather jacket the Parfum is still here after a 2hour ride, the EDP isn't.That, and also the fact that it smells like something being transported Star Trek style from the 90s. After sitting on my vanity for a few months it lost the creaminess and developed that "old generic cologne" harsh note that has become dominating in the opening, and it lost some other notes that were once prominent, it does smell quite different now. Sprayed this on after almost a year, i forgot i had it TBH, put to the side usually in place of more recent acquisitions. It being a Parfum it's expected to be strong, but the other Parfum concentrations I own don't last as long and prominent as this. I love that this fragrance gives me nostalgia but is still different (imo noticeably better) than the original.

It still has the BDC dna but I would have never expected this to be powdery and musky but I love a good powdery fragrance and this is lovely. The smell is really fresh and the bottle is sexy- Best part about wearing Chanel is you don’t really need to worry about seeing it on the discount rack. Top notes are Lemon Zest, Bergamot, Mint and Artemisia; middle notes are Lavender, Pineapple, Geranium and Green Notes; base notes are Sandalwood, Cedar, Amberwood, Iso E Super and Tonka Bean.

The best way I can describe the parfum is, out of all the blue/bleu fragrances this is the Godfather. Or if you want an amazing frag from Chanel,especially for summer i would go for Allure Homme Edition Blanche,that’s a masterpiece! In the same way, it's pretty unisex, I would say it leans a little masculine but a woman could definitely rock this.

I put off trying this for a long time because I thought this would be another boring citrus fresh blue scent.Granted I have not been in the frag game for long and don’t own that many fragrances, however in one way I’m sad to say that I doubt a designer frag can be any better than this. This option mixes the woody notes of barks, mosses and warm resins with the greener impression of aromatic spices for a truly hypnotic effect. But I feel like I need to use a couple of extra sprays to get the performance I want, which wouldn’t be a problem if it wasn’t so expensive.
