CHANEL BLEU DE CHANEL Eau de Parfum Spray, 5 oz

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Little strong but it’s okay.

I received this product for free in order to review it. I have been partial to blue fragrances for the last several months. This is a deep, resinous, and slightly fresh scent. It is more fitting for fall rather than summer. I appreciate the use of natural aromachemicals over the typical ambroxan bomb found in other designer releases.

​If you liked the original Bleu de Chanel, Bleu de Chanel L'Exclusif takes everything great about it and dials it up to ten. It's easily one of the best, most versatile colognes on the market. ​It opens up super clean and fresh with a burst of citrus, but almost immediately smooths out into something much warmer and richer. You get a nice blend of smooth woodiness, light spice, and a soft, creamy warmth that just smells insanely expensive. It's modern, classy, and completely effortless. ​The best part is how long it lasts. Just a couple of sprays will easily get you through a whole day and night, and people will notice how good you smell when you walk by. Whether you're dressing up for a night out or just want an everyday confidence boost.

Where the EDP feels like the perfect daily, L'Exclusif is its night-out counterpart. It keeps the same Bleu de Chanel essence, but feels richer, more prominent, and more refined. It's a subdued, classy scent that feels made for a nice dinner or a dressed-up night out. I prefer it over the Parfum because it feels more distinct from the EDP. The Parfum is excellent, but L'Exclusif gives me a clearer reason to own both.

Great smell very easy to wear.

Great for a nice clean professional scent. I used it for a couple nicer days at the office and liked it and got a compliment from a coworker as well.

I love how this fragrance last throughout the day. Only using a couple of sprays does the job meaning it will last you a very long time.

I like how it smells very fresh I don't like how it's so small I'll definitely get a bigger bottle next time.

Honestly one of my favorite scents from the Bleu de Chanel line. When comparing it to the original it feels much more manly and mature and has an incredibly different smell profile.

I received a small sample of this fragrance. It smells lovely and elegant. Nice to try before purchasing the full-size bottle.
