Which Should You Buy?
A truly polarising beast, Chanel's L'Exclusif is either a masterpiece or a marketing scam, depending on who you ask. It’s certainly a richer, darker, more opulent take on the Bleu de Chanel DNA, but beware the hefty price tag and intense amber-woody core, which some find overwhelming.
Bleu Mémoire L'Exclusif is Alexandria UK's dupe of Chanel's 2025 Bleu de Chanel L'Exclusif flanker, chasing the same intense sandalwood-amber-labdanum reimagining of the Bleu de Chanel line. The dupe's citrus opening is more generic than Chanel's version and the labdanum-amber base lacks the New Caledonian sandalwood depth of the original.
