Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Blue de Chance Eau de Parfum
Skip this one. Despite the promise of a well-known original, Blue de Chance is a deeply disappointing blue fragrance. It's aggressively synthetic, smells cheap, and performs terribly. There are far better, and frankly cheaper, alternatives out there. A resounding no from us.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Melbourne Eau de Parfum
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Chanel Bleu de Chanel (2010) - grapefruit, ginger and incense translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
No strong occasion fit
Given the poor longevity and generally synthetic, unpleasant smell reported by many, this isn't suitable for most occasions. While 'blue' fragrances typically offer versatility, this particular scent's execution limits its wearability to very casual, non-committal settings where it might quickly fade or be unnoticed.
