The review
Worth a try. That is where Amber Oud Bleu Edition lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Bleu de Chanel.
Al Haramain 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 $87 per 100ml it costs 50% less than Bleu de Chanel — the 19th cheapest of 19 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Al Haramain 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
What it is chasing: grapefruit, lemon and mint up top, ginger, nutmeg and jasmine in the middle, incense, sandalwood and cedar underneath — the shape of Chanel Bleu de Chanel.
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.
