What Wearers Say

Armaf Club de Nuit Blue Iconic

One buyer enjoys the fresh grapefruit, lemon and ginger over slightly smoky woods.

Another buyer likes the scent and finds it lasts well on their skin.

Some buyers find the opening harsh or synthetic-smelling.

Some buyers wish it lasted longer on their skin.

Chanel Bleu de Chanel Eau de Parfum

One wearer enjoys the change from bright citrus to creamy woods.

Some owners find it easy to wear for work and everyday outings.

One owner enjoys the opening but dislikes the powdery, ambery woods that follow.

Some wearers wish it lasted longer on their skin.

The Verdict

Blue Iconic's note list, with grapefruit, mint, ginger and incense over cedar and sandalwood, reads more like the note pyramid usually published for the original Bleu de Chanel EDT than like the EDP. The EDP is smoother and woodier, cedar and sandalwood rounded with amber and musk. If you want that bright grapefruit-and-incense style for a fraction of the price, Blue Iconic is our pick. Choose Bleu de Chanel EDP for soft woods.
