  • Hi Guys,
    For today’s video I’m taking on the very popular Bleu De Chanel and asking which is better out of the EDP or Parfum version of this popular fragrance.
    Thanks for watching and supporting my channel! 😎

    To me the parfum lasts 12+ hours on my skin with moderate projection. Honeslty just go for more sprays and it'll project more. The EDP smells fresher and spicier to my nose, lasts a good amount (not as long as the parfum) and has slightly better projection but not by a long shot. Parfum smells better, I'd go for that.

      I agree, I usually carry a small atomiser and top up every 5-6 hours when I’m using it, thankfully one you can overspray and not choke yourself out! Love the EDP will be getting it very soon! Thanks for watching 😊

    I could listen to you all day, this scent description is so on point! My first encounter with this fragrance did not blow me away, maybe it's because Jeremy Fragrance goes on and on about how amazing it is and it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. I too think the parfum is much nicer Great review ❤️

    • @I_am_gids
      @I_am_gids  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      😂😂😂 I think it’s just the fresh soapy citrus vibe of a lot shower gels which gives a similar smell. for me in the UK I think of radox shower gel, but that still doesn’t do it justice!

    Yes exactly! Got the parfum thinking it would last longer and have better projection. But personally I have found that the EDP lasts longer and has a slightly stronger scent. I honestly would consider thé parfum a more daily scent whereas the EDP I prefer when going out.

    BDC is my all time favorite which I could use in anytime and occasions❤
    I repurchased BDC EDP around 10 times.
    I used the Parfum once but not completely (has fallen and lost the juice, however I wiped it by a tshirt which still smells the fragrance since 3 months!!)
    To me, The BDC edp has the amazing opening while the parfum has the dry down.
    I didn’t try the EDT yet.
    I wish both of them has a better performance. I don’t know if I got the noseblind or about the performance itself😢
    I usually carry a travel spray from Chanel as well to reapply all the day 😊

    • @I_am_gids
      @I_am_gids  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      BDC is amazing, sorry to hear about the parfum breaking! 😱 I love the EDP I tried the EDT recently and while I like it, I find t a little sharp in the opening.
      I think the juice itself has gotten weaker as it’s been reformulated sadly, I still think the parfum will always be with me! It’s a classic!

    Good review/comparison. I have all 3 versions of BDC. I think the Parfum is a masterpiece, though. It’s so beautifully blended. I had conversations from the department store I bought the Parfum from and Chanel in London and I had a better idea of how the fragrance works and performs. It’s the higher alcohol content that makes the EDP project further than the Parfum. Projection from the Parfum is only around 1-2 feet, but it leaves a lovely scent trail afterwards. Those in close proximity to you will pick up the scent. It’s more of a subtle power fragrance. I reach for the Parfum when I wear a suit or blazer. If I could only choose one concentration it would be the EDP, though.

    • @I_am_gids

    Had EDP for some times and really love it, and few days ago a friend bought me a Bleu de Chanel Perfume in contrary to what I requested which is EDP, tried it and gosh the dried down smells too much of sandal wood like that's literally the only thing left on my skin, and I'm not a fan of it makes me nauseous. The beginning is pretty much the same. I prefer EDP as it's fresher(lemon), spicier(pink pepper), cooler instead of warmer like the parfume, and the dry down is actually more complex, I don't know what's in it but it's just got so many layers of wood scent. EDP is pretty much suitable for almost everything even for gym. I also like the soapy and even a slight powdery on EDP. To me parfume edition is more mature, and gosh that sandal wood really bothers me, it's very warm and more classy though

      I agree and understand where your coming from! I think because of the higher quality of natural ingredients it does sit closer to the skin, I do still enjoy wearing it. I recently took it with me on holiday to Spain where the weather was warm and it perfect but topped it up every 4 hours or so. I also sometimes layer with escentric molecules which does slightly help….. I’m going to test out the newer batches and report back on all three concentrations! 👀🤨🕵️‍♀️😁
