The Scoop

Historic Olmeda captures the fresh citrus opening and woody-aromatic backbone of Bleu de Chanel reasonably well, with comparable spice and jasmine heart notes. However, the clone tends to feel slightly less refined in the mid-stage, with the spices appearing less nuanced and the sandalwood-patchouli base lacking the depth and sophistication of the original's signature drydown.

Key Differences

While the overall structure is similar, Bleu de Chanel maintains superior longevity and projection, with a more balanced interplay between citrus and woods throughout the wear. Historic Olmeda performs adequately but feels flatter in the heart and base, with less complexity in how the notes transition.

What wearers say

“Strong grapefruit and juniper opening but quite balanced opening. Kinda similar to Turanti Blue under same brand. It does have similarities to Bleu de chanel edp but no incense and fresher. The opening doesn't last very long and the heart notes comes fast with a more pronounced nutmeg. Smells pretty good itself for a blue budget scent. Bottle presentation is pretty nice. Sprayer is good too. Price is excellent for such a scent. Many young adults would love this.”

“I was initially worried that this wouldn't live up to the hype listed by fragrances this is similar to as BDC and Dylan blue are both summer bangers, but upon first whiff, I was very happy with the scent profile. The top notes of the fragrances are blended very well, where the juniper, jasmine, and bergamot take center stage with a nice woodiness in the background. Overall I would rate this a 9.5/10 and would pick this up over BDC and DB simply because it smells like the best of both and lasts as long as BDC with very nice projection.”

“I get Grapefruit, Pink Pepper, Apple, Cardamom, and Cedarwood. Smells like it should be $100. My batch is from Late 2023. Longevity is about 7-9 hours with Strong/moderate projection for 4 hours. 8.2/10.”
