Our verdict: does Blue de Chance really dupe Bleu de Chanel?
Blue de Chance carries Bleu de Chanel's citrus-ginger-and-cedar backbone, the versatile, clean, slightly-smoky profile that made the Chanel a modern default. The creamy sandalwood base is lighter here, so it is a touch less refined on the drydown. For the everyday Bleu impression, it is a dependable budget swap.
