I received a bottle of CDNIM Iconic close to a month ago. I was not sure about it at first. Something about the smell was not agreeing with me. Maybe 2 weeks later.. I have been wearing it a little more. I have to say.. it has grew on me. I am liking it more and more. It is really close to BDC at the drydown. I also enjoy the opening scent too Glad that I purchased this fragrance. Get well soon!!
@@sk-mp6ox Really!! I didn't get that type of vibe. It did take me a few wears to get use to the smell. I am really enjoying it now. I am letting mines sit and macerate for a month and see what happens. I suggest you do the same. Who did you order from?
@@sk-mp6ox Where or who did you order from? My bottle of CDNIM Iconic has great performance. Between 7-8 hours on my skin and days on clothes. That is why I letting it sit and macerate. I will see if it gets stronger after a month. Hopefully get that beast mode performance.
@@sk-mp6ox Oh. Okay 👍. You have to be careful where you purchase certain fragrances. Please believe I know. A few of my fragrances seems like they are watered down or don't smell right. I had to learn the hard way. My batch is from 11/23.
I have been watching your Chanel for several years now. I compare your reviews with gentsscents and take advice from you both. I didn't quite get where you got your iconic from so? Hope your better soon Allan. Take care
Can you review Lataffa Al Qiam Silver? It's supposed to be very similar to Bvlgari Tygar ans slightly Bleu De Chanel, but I don't want to blind buy it. I've heard it's better than Turathi Blue.
Hi from Greece. I bought it as a blind buy.... I was not very much into it. I bought it 63 Euro. Have the receipt. If you are interested I can sell it at a lower price. If you are in Europe. The bottle is full. Just 4-5 sprays.
@@mikewattie5581 welcome! Btw, ignore it for 20 seconds after spraying. It has the strong armaf woody scent that fades into the background. So it's sliiightly woodier because of it. And no jasmine in armaf.
@@jokaasama1529 iconic is just a creamy sweet citrus. it may not be that good for scorching hot days. but bleu de chanel is not a really good performer as well
I have both fragrances. I am so happy to have both in my collection. Both smell different from each other. They smell awesome..last a long time on my skin and clothes. Two great fragrances Imo.
It’s very close. Opening is less rindy than EDT. Body is very EDP and the drydown. Skin scent after 7 hours has that signature Armaf woody incense. That’s my only complaint. If I can get a bottle of it, I’d gladly use it. Nobody can tell the difference in the air.
I received my CDN Iconic a week back and I'm absolutely baffled by how nauseating this is for me. I ordered this hoping high that it'd be a smooth and inoffensive clone of BDC, as all reviews on the internet are portraying. I have tried the BDC EDT before and even though there is a slight inspiration of it, I find the Armaf Iconic too intense and pungent for my nose. On my first day, I was literally sick of the smell and had a terrible migraine. I tried to get accustomed to it by spraying one spray on my arm every day but I still don't like it and also it does not last as long on my skin (lasted 4 hours). I'm really disappointed cause this was more of an expensive fragrance by Armaf and there were so many positive reviews on the internet. If you have fragrance sensitivity like me, I would suggest not buying!
Shake the bottle for 5 seconds then put it in a cool dark room or place even slightly cold and come back to it in 1-2 months, that's what I do with frags I'm unsure of when they arrive and find I like them much more later on.
It's Elysium/Bleu De Channel mix. It wasn't supposed to be BDC. It's actually better IMO... It's closer to BDC EDP not EDT
I agree with you. The twist makes this unique and I love it for that.
Finally, joy I love you brother, could listen to you talking bout perfumes all day 💙
I'm thinking about getting Imperial. It sounds wonderful.

@@Den_Hi definitely EDP

been waiting for this review from you.... And do your watch collection also, would love it 👍🏻
I just ordered a bottle.
Good to see you building your collection up again after the robbery
robbery ??? wtf ?
@@HOTRODRICO yeah a year or 2 ago he was robbed. The robbers stole most of his frags
@@jimmydigital lie
Get well soon, brother Joy 🙏🏻
Great video, I really do enjoy your channel very much. Thank you for all you do. Get well soon.
Love the watch Joy. Hope you get well soon.
Man..I hope you feel better...a new fragrance always cheers you up though. Lol
The Seiko 5 looks great 👍
I hope you get well my guy. I really enjoy your content. Many blessings ok 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I wish you good health! Maybe you will review Historic Doria by Afnan, which is also in the style of Bleu de Chanel.
You mentioned missoni wave but you meant missoni parfum probably right?
Can you review Lataffa Al Qiam Silver? It's supposed to be very similar to Bvlgari Tygar ans slightly Bleu De Chanel, but I don't want to blind buy it. I've heard it's better than Turathi Blue.
Should i get this or wave for summer?i have cdn Sillage also
Congratulations on your new ⌚
Didn't you take untold ?
Is this one better than Historic Olmeda?
I’ve been waiting for a clone of Bleu de Chanel.
I’ll wait a bit to grab a bottle until the price gets a bit more reasonable.

did you try *Club De Nuit Urban Elixir* yet?
Which Chanel is it closest to EDT..EDP..Parfum?
EDP mostly. Has slightly fresher opening like EDT and I swear has the nice smooth powderiness of Parfum. But the scent is definitely EDP.
@@chris582 appreciate that!
@@mikewattie5581 welcome! Btw, ignore it for 20 seconds after spraying. It has the strong armaf woody scent that fades into the background. So it's sliiightly woodier because of it. And no jasmine in armaf.
My old club de Nuit Sillage sprayer does not work. So I can't use perfume. What should I do in this case?
On TH-cam type in 'how to decant perfume' and it will show you how to get it out.
Now I can carry my perfume with me and reapply it if I need to through the day.
This is $65+ vs $30 Shogun in the Philippines Boss. Too expensive. I'll just get Shogun I guess. 😅
how much is a reasonable price for Blue De Chanel? theres an old shop in town that sells EDP for 145 dollars is that fair price or too high
Just buy Iconic- nobody will know the difference!
@@bonniehirtz5640 but i heard it got a creaminess to it and is more smokey so i dont think its as good in middle eastern summer heat
@@jokaasama1529 iconic is just a creamy sweet citrus. it may not be that good for scorching hot days. but bleu de chanel is not a really good performer as well
Are these "armaf" perfumes any good for real?
Show us the watch joy 😀
I already have afnan turathi blue
I'm planning to buy Armaf's iconic
What's your opinion
I have both fragrances. I am so happy to have both in my collection. Both smell different from each other. They smell awesome..last a long time on my skin and clothes. Two great fragrances Imo.
Brother Owns a seiko. Good taste
Which one should i buy iconic or urban elixer, i already had cdnim edt and armaf ventana
Ventana and Urban Elixer both are close to Dior Sauvage so Blue Iconic is the best choice to go for you.
it's cost 74 dollars in my country , so wait till it's come down to the same CHEAP as CDNIM .
Pls tell me the SPL 🙏
How close to BDC?
It’s very close. Opening is less rindy than EDT. Body is very EDP and the drydown. Skin scent after 7 hours has that signature Armaf woody incense. That’s my only complaint. If I can get a bottle of it, I’d gladly use it. Nobody can tell the difference in the air.
He mentioned Shogun as an alternative to Bleu De Chanel who makes that again??
Luxodor
Better than 9am dive by Afnan?
Dive sucks,I have it
hi joy
1st 🥇
Armaf atomizers are top notch, hate the bottles though
smelling Synthenic and unnatural, opening is harsh, feels like it's trying to copy something.
Fragrance is synthetic 🙄

Same with when it first arrived. Had to macerate it for 1 months and that harsh opening is not strong as before. Still quite strong, but enjoyable rn
harsh, synthetic and unnatural, it's also a bit nauseating to me too.
India mai 3500 ka hai 😢 overpriced
Not overpriced
