Chanel Bleu De Chanel EDP

Bleu de Chanel EDP is a sophisticated woody aromatic fragrance built around grapefruit, jasmine and sandalwood, and Maids Scents carries the authentic Eau de Parfum with delivery across Nigeria and beyond.

What is Bleu de Chanel EDP?

Bleu de Chanel EDP launched in 2014, also created by perfumer Jacques Polge, four years after the original 2010 Eau de Toilette, which we already carry. Bleu de Chanel now exists across three interpretations, this Eau de Parfum sitting between the fresher original EDT and the more intense 2018 Parfum, formulated later by his son, Olivier Polge.

That structure genuinely mirrors how Chanel handled Égoïste Cologne Concentrée versus the original Égoïste back in 1990, adjusting the balance of an existing composition rather than starting entirely from scratch.

Fragrance Profile

Bleu de Chanel EDP opens with grapefruit, lemon, mint, bergamot, pink pepper, aldehydes and coriander, a fuller, denser citrus burst than the original EDT.

As it develops, the heart brings in ginger, nutmeg, jasmine and melon, aromatic and slightly sweeter. It’s genuinely worth being honest that reception here is mixed among long-time fans of the range, with more than one detailed reviewer specifically describing this stage as fleeting, finding the heart weaker and less distinctive than either the original EDT or the later Parfum.

The base settles into incense, amber, cedar, sandalwood, amberwood, patchouli and labdanum, closing out a genuinely denser, more woody dry-down. More than one reviewer specifically feels this concentration falls short of the fresher, more effervescent EDT and the richer, bluer Parfum, though other wearers separately describe the EDP as the most versatile, pleasant option in the whole range once given a proper chance.

Top Notes: Grapefruit, Lemon, Mint, Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Aldehydes, Coriander
Heart Notes: Ginger, Nutmeg, Jasmine, Melon
Base Notes: Incense, Amber, Cedar, Sandalwood, Amberwood, Patchouli, Labdanum

Who Should Wear Bleu de Chanel EDP?

Bleu de Chanel EDP suits anyone who wants a genuinely denser, more subdued take on the familiar Bleu DNA rather than the brighter original. It’s genuinely worth being honest that many connoisseurs of the wider range prefer either the fresher EDT or the richer Parfum, though this concentration has earned its own passionate individual fans over time.

One especially memorable testimonial comes from a collector who nearly gave their bottle away, having forgotten why they owned it, only to spray it once more and decide they genuinely couldn’t part with it after all.

Performance and Longevity

Community ratings place both projection and longevity at a moderate 3 out of 5, genuinely solid rather than exceptional, consistent with a fragrance built more for dependable, everyday wear than loud, room-filling presence.

Two to three sprays on pulse points is a sensible starting point given this genuinely moderate, dependable performance profile.

Best Time to Wear Bleu de Chanel EDP in Nigeria

Given its genuinely denser, more woody character compared to the fresher EDT, Bleu de Chanel EDP suits Nigeria’s harmattan season particularly well, where cooler, drier air lets the amber, patchouli and sandalwood base fully develop for evening wear.
