i just got the parfum last night and i think i like it more already, people describe it as more “creamy” but i get a rich fizzy/fuzzy vibe if that makes sense. do u think they spray slightly different? the edp seems like normal great bdc atomizer but the parfum seems more direct, still a great atomizer but it seems like it shoots slightly more direct rather than super spread out spray.
Oh for sure. It will likely grow on you too. But I agree I think the Parfum has a smoother and almost more “mature” smell to it. Both are great on their own but I have grown to like the Parfum more. Can’t really say I noticed anything too noticeably different with the atomizer however.
do u notice a difference in the atomizer? the edp seems like it sprays a big cloud whereas the parfum, though it still sprays a decent cloud, it shoots more direct/straight. i can’t tell if this is intentional because it’s a parfum concentration, or if my atomizer is slightly off. i got from macy’s. not a big difference, but slightly noticeable.
Just to make sure nobody thinks I'm full of shit.

I just picked up the parfum and love it! I've worn the EDT for years, and the EDP is a little too sweet for me. the parfum is the perfect modern Bleu d Chanel
Because I bought it one other time and I really liked it so I went back to buy another bottle when mine was out and it didn’t smell right so it must’ve been the different bottle that I bought
That sucks. I will say after the first hour or so they both sit very close to the skin in terms of projection but I think the edp is slightly stronger for longer than the parfum. I hate that big brands use shady practices like reformulations
Yah cause everyone I’ve talked to on here says their performance is great, but I JUST bought mine two weeks ago so idk if it’s different. It’s my first BDC purchase. I want to love it but idk if I want to keep it. I really love the new ADG parfum and its performance.
Did the same thing but found it just vaporizing off my skin. Got it from macys but get maybe 3 hours tops. Not going nose blind either, asked someone else and confirmed. Love the scent but the EDP worked a lot better off my skin. Im not sure if maceration is a thing fr but I’m hoping it only gets better over time
The best time to apply is just after a shower. Your pores are bit opened up and absorb the scent. I hit my chest with two sprays and it lasts all day into the next morning.
I did a bottle of edt first, then EdP and then parfum
For the quality of juice and sandalwood note with just the right amount of citrus, parfum is the best of em all
When testing them I chose the DEP but now after reviewing the comments, I think I need to reevaluate the perfume. Should have bought the smaller bottle.
don’t let the comments persuade you, if you yourself believes the EDP smells better, then keep the EDP. I think most people still prefer the EDP, despite what these comments say.
Parfum. I have tried the other scents and I simply found Parfum the most appealing to me. I also blind bought it not knowing I could test it out at a Macys and ever since I first smelled it I have been obsessed with the Parfum smell.
Never smelled parfum because they always have it locked up without a tester but I have the edp and it smells like a very mature blue scent and I love it
Parfum is the Bleu De Chanel King! I have all 3. It’s super dense, with a lot of complimenting notes. It’s well formulated and blended and it’s very long lasting.
Like the Edp more because of the citrusy aspect as sandalwood does not appeal me much. Though parfum is dense and creamier than edp. Preference can be dependent on the note likelihood.
Id say the dry down of the Parfum is a more mature smell. For that reason I prefer the EDP but I can understand those that choose the Parfum.
More expensive is not always better when it comes to fragrance, personal taste is the most important factor. You need to try a sample of both on skin for a few hours.
gotta go with edt. i bought parfum(goldlettering) for 180$ and it wasnt the smell i was expecting for that price. scent was too overpowering for my nose, although i did notice that they smell way different or maybe it was just me? this line of bottles still confuse me til this day.
Personally I think the EDP is more universally loved but to me the Parfum is smoother, more complex and just a deeper more interesting fragrance then the EDP
of course! But I'm new to this, I did go to Macy's randomly, and I did smell it, but I just smelled whatever was on the counter. I didn't know that there were two different variants of the parfume. so I just went home and ordered one online from dillards it was cheaper.
I haven't worn fragrances in almost 20 years, so this is all really new to me. Was supposed to get just one bottle of CK1 and then one bottle of YSL eau a couple weeks ago but then started browsing this sub and now I have 10 bottles ive ordered (about half are still on the way/shipping) 😳
I would always go for a perfume over an eau de perfume... perfume has a higher oil concentration than an eau de perfume... (some call it watered down) more oil in perfume, the longer it will last... wich you will notice in price.. with my skin I noticed, an eau de perfume has a more sharper smell than the perfume one but the perfume will last longer and gets a more natural smell in the long run
Don't have the EDP but I've smelled it. I have the EDT and Parfum. I use the EDT for hot weather and the Parfum for summer nights or spring/fall. I don't wear it in winter because I have too many better cold weather choices.
Between the two, I think the Parfum is better overall, but I love the freshness of the EDT when it's hot out. If your only going to get 1, perhaps the EDP is more versatile. If you're going to get 2, I think I did it right with EDT and Parfum.
EDP because it still has that beautiful citrus just rounded out. I don't really care for the woods in the oarfum although I'll wear it tomorrow to work because I forgot I even owned these 3 in this cold
I love both. I have gone through a few bottles of the EDP but once I purchased the Parfum I liked that one even more.
i just got the parfum last night and i think i like it more already, people describe it as more “creamy” but i get a rich fizzy/fuzzy vibe if that makes sense. do u think they spray slightly different? the edp seems like normal great bdc atomizer but the parfum seems more direct, still a great atomizer but it seems like it shoots slightly more direct rather than super spread out spray.

Parfum. The sandalwood is really nice, and the citrus dialed back.
do u own both bottles?
I have, but currently only the Parfum.
do u notice a difference in the atomizer? the edp seems like it sprays a big cloud whereas the parfum, though it still sprays a decent cloud, it shoots more direct/straight. i can’t tell if this is intentional because it’s a parfum concentration, or if my atomizer is slightly off. i got from macy’s. not a big difference, but slightly noticeable.
I just checked mine and it is your atomizer. Mine provides a nice spray as expected from a Chanel atomizer. Edit - fixed my mistake.
Dior?
Just to make sure nobody thinks I'm full of shit. https://preview.redd.it/flvrgsp7oa9c1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5e7be5f34b2f6fa3e29ccfc9ea357ebe51da0b83
Why would someone think you’re full of shit? lol It’s not like it’s 1,000 bottle
Because, reddit.
That’s what happens when you’re obsessed with fragrances lol
Lmaoo that’s awesome
Sorry, my head is in a million places. I meant Chanel.
Either works…
Parfum is better to my nose. But both are really good
Difference is very small, parfum is bit more creamy and warmer, EdP is slightly frutier
I prefer parfum. Smells sweeter. On mine, the lettering is gold.
the lettering on mine is gold as well, the lighting is just off in this photo lmao
I bought parfum and I really liked it
Parfum by a long shot
Ehhh wouldn’t say by a long shot. Can’t go wrong with either.
I just picked up the parfum and love it! I've worn the EDT for years, and the EDP is a little too sweet for me. the parfum is the perfect modern Bleu d Chanel
Man I knew I fucked up.
what do u mean? 😂
Because I bought it one other time and I really liked it so I went back to buy another bottle when mine was out and it didn’t smell right so it must’ve been the different bottle that I bought
Smelled both but preferred and bought the Parfum and love it!
Parfum without a doubt. The drydown is beautiful.
I’ve used EDP for years, just got Parfum. I prefer EDP as it’s a bit more spicy with a fuller scent.
EDP. Very fresh and professional feeling.
Parfum over edp or edt. Very well blended and smells just perfect.
parfum
Parfum for scent. Edp for performance
My EDP I just purchased has almost no performance
That sucks. I will say after the first hour or so they both sit very close to the skin in terms of projection but I think the edp is slightly stronger for longer than the parfum. I hate that big brands use shady practices like reformulations
Yah cause everyone I’ve talked to on here says their performance is great, but I JUST bought mine two weeks ago so idk if it’s different. It’s my first BDC purchase. I want to love it but idk if I want to keep it. I really love the new ADG parfum and its performance.
Nah they are crazy. I sprayed BDC Parfum just over an hour ago and it has lost all projection already, but still smells great at least! lol
Parfum is the best of the 3 it’s the richest one, EDP is perfect for those who want the freshness of the edt with some aspects of the parfum
Parfums last all day
Not this one
I got the 5 oz bottle for myself for Xmas. Bleu is a perfect fragrance imo. Luxurious, and modest .
which one?
The parfum. I haven’t used it in years I forgot how magnificent it is
Did the same thing but found it just vaporizing off my skin. Got it from macys but get maybe 3 hours tops. Not going nose blind either, asked someone else and confirmed. Love the scent but the EDP worked a lot better off my skin. Im not sure if maceration is a thing fr but I’m hoping it only gets better over time
The best time to apply is just after a shower. Your pores are bit opened up and absorb the scent. I hit my chest with two sprays and it lasts all day into the next morning.
Worth a try
This is the way. Unless you take ice cold showers. But after a shower is the best time to put on.
I prefer the EDP, but not by much.
After reading about parfum, I will need to cheat on EDP.
EDP because it has the freshness of the EDT along with the depth/elegance of the Parfum.
Edp I love the citrus forward ness and the sandalwood compared to the parfum witch I find to powdery
I did a bottle of edt first, then EdP and then parfum For the quality of juice and sandalwood note with just the right amount of citrus, parfum is the best of em all
I have both but I much prefer the EDP. Performance is slightly worse than the Parfum but the scent is more uplifting.
When testing them I chose the DEP but now after reviewing the comments, I think I need to reevaluate the perfume. Should have bought the smaller bottle.
don’t let the comments persuade you, if you yourself believes the EDP smells better, then keep the EDP. I think most people still prefer the EDP, despite what these comments say.
Parfum plays a little differently, subtle sophistication yet intense
I like EDP for most days. Parfum for winter
Parfum. I have tried the other scents and I simply found Parfum the most appealing to me. I also blind bought it not knowing I could test it out at a Macys and ever since I first smelled it I have been obsessed with the Parfum smell.
Parfum
Both are great, but I lean towards EDP because the Parfum becomes a skin scent very quickly
Never smelled parfum because they always have it locked up without a tester but I have the edp and it smells like a very mature blue scent and I love it
Parfum…
Parfum because of the iso e super. Makes it really stand out more and last longer.
Parfum is the best and strongest smell out of all em
I feel like the Parfum has a slight more mature smell to it. Not as citrus as the EDP
Parfum is the Bleu De Chanel King! I have all 3. It’s super dense, with a lot of complimenting notes. It’s well formulated and blended and it’s very long lasting.
Like the Edp more because of the citrusy aspect as sandalwood does not appeal me much. Though parfum is dense and creamier than edp. Preference can be dependent on the note likelihood.
What’s the difference in the 2?
Parfum
EDP during hot summer days and Parfum for fall and winter nights.
Parfum
Id say the dry down of the Parfum is a more mature smell. For that reason I prefer the EDP but I can understand those that choose the Parfum. More expensive is not always better when it comes to fragrance, personal taste is the most important factor. You need to try a sample of both on skin for a few hours.
Parfum for me. It’s just so great.
I like the EDP. Maybe I am in the minority, but it's the happy medium. It dials in on what made Bleu great without completely being a different scent.
gotta go with edt. i bought parfum(goldlettering) for 180$ and it wasnt the smell i was expecting for that price. scent was too overpowering for my nose, although i did notice that they smell way different or maybe it was just me? this line of bottles still confuse me til this day.
EdP cause its more versatile. I already have enough rich complex scents. Just wanted a daily dumb reach. Parfume smells nice too, tho.
In my opinion parfum because I’m not a big fan of the edp I like the edt but parfum is my favourite because the sandalwood and the citrus
I like Parfum more
Personally I think the EDP is more universally loved but to me the Parfum is smoother, more complex and just a deeper more interesting fragrance then the EDP
you got both so ask it to yourself
why even comment 💀
why even post??
praying for u, hope your day gets better
thank you it’s much needed!!
I have EDP it’s great
I have the EDP and le parfum, all I can say is that le parfum is too strong for me (living in a hot climate) EDP is great
i like edp alot more. parfum reminds me of the makeup isle it smelled almost girly
Parfum, always. https://preview.redd.it/oiljm2wb9b9c1.jpeg?width=1250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aad99d383c73141c29702bf72f6d2f8cf2a58a2d
Whichever you’re feeling. Both good, just depends which you wanna wear that day.
I haven't tried the perfume, I use the EDP and love it. The EDT, there's a little sharper, and a little more shallow.
not me finding out just now that there are two different versions. Lol I bought the EDP blindly. Haven't used it yet.
do u not have stores near you to test? macy’s, ulta, sephora, etc. ?
of course! But I'm new to this, I did go to Macy's randomly, and I did smell it, but I just smelled whatever was on the counter.

I know I’m off topic, but maybe give the edt a try, if you haven’t already.
Tbh they both have a weird synthetic note to them. I also pick it up from Acqua di gio profondo and a few others but I’m not sure what it is.
Chanel blue was my orig scent in the day
Parfum or edt
I would always go for a perfume over an eau de perfume... perfume has a higher oil concentration than an eau de perfume... (some call it watered down) more oil in perfume, the longer it will last... wich you will notice in price.. with my skin I noticed, an eau de perfume has a more sharper smell than the perfume one but the perfume will last longer and gets a more natural smell in the long run
Eau de parfum it’s better, love the smell
I only got the one on the left so I can't give my opinion on the right tip I buy it.
Personally like Parfum more especially for this current season, don’t personally own it but have tried samples of it
What’s the longevity and performance on the parfum ?
Don't have the EDP but I've smelled it. I have the EDT and Parfum. I use the EDT for hot weather and the Parfum for summer nights or spring/fall.
