The review

On paper, New York Skyline is a reasonable bet if you want Bleu de Chanel for less.

Àerre sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Bleu de Chanel's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $45 it costs 74% less than Bleu de Chanel.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Value8.2
Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Àerre publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on grapefruit, lemon and mint, turns to ginger, nutmeg and jasmine, and settles into incense, sandalwood and cedar. That is the brief New York Skyline is working from.

Top

  • grapefruit
  • lemon
  • mint

Heart

  • ginger
  • nutmeg
  • jasmine

Base

  • incense
  • sandalwood
  • cedar
For the man of every occasion. Citrus and pink pepper dry down to incense, sandalwood and cedar — the safe bet that still impresses.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
