  1. Smells nice, but that earthy patchouli is going to give me a right old fight; it feels very synthetic and ultimately becomes uncomfortable. Lasts a treat and holds up in the heat, but don’t buy it blindly as the blend is strong and can become overwhelming.

    Does the job: a gentle, discreet fragrance suitable for any occasion or weather. Good value, though nothing revolutionary; perfect if you’re just looking for something for yourself.

  3. At the opening and heart it smells 10% like Dylan Blue, but once it dries down it’s 90% Bleu de Chanel Eau de Parfum.

  4. In my opinion, at first it smells 10% like Dylan Blue, but in the heart it’s already 90% Bleu de Chanel Eau de Parfum.

  5. Brilliant perfume. Although it shares 80% with Bleu de Chanel EDP, it carves out its own niche. Fresh and spiced, ideal for going out at night. The best bit is that it lasts: on skin it projects for two hours and lasts eight or nine, and on clothes, no contest, up to two days.
