Chanel Bleu de Chanel Parfum 100ml

The most intense of the Bleu de Chanel Parfum. Powerful and refined, BLEU DE CHANEL Parfum for men reveals the essence of determination.

An aromatic freshness opens, lingering on the warm, addictive fullness of Cedar and Sandalwood from New Caledonia that sweeps throughout the intense, woody fragrance.

Housed in an intensely coloured bottle, the parfum comes in a spray for easy application.
