Bleu de Chanel Parfum
“Bleu in a tailored coat — same bones, significantly more gravitas.”
Richer sandalwood and denser incense layered onto the BdC EDP's citrus-woody backbone — Polge's 2018 Parfum-strength flanker is the most refined of the Bleu line, favored for office-to-evening versatility at a premium.
The take
What works
- ●The darkest, smokiest, most grown-up Bleu expression
- ●Incense and sandalwood base gives real depth and longevity
- ●Office-safe sillage — present but never overwhelming
Trade-offs
- ●Projection is modest — this is a skin-close scent
- ●Premium pricing over the EDP for a refinement, not a reinvention
