Bleu

Bleu, a Fresh Woody Aromatic for Men

Bleu de Chanel is one of the most popular men’s scents in the world. Our version keeps that clean, confident character, opening with grapefruit, lemon, and mint before a spicy ginger heart settles over incense, vetiver, and cedar.

The Story Behind the Scent

Chanel built Bleu de Chanel as a modern symbol of freedom and confidence, a versatile scent for the man who does not want to be boxed in. The idea was fresh and clean, but with enough woody depth to feel grown up.

That balance made it a global favourite, equally at home in the office and on a night out. The citrus keeps it fresh, the ginger adds spice, and the smoky woods give it depth. Our interpretation follows that same journey from bright to warm.
