Blue by Ahmed

This one took a long time to mature for me (about 4-6 months), but when it did it instantly became my signature scent. I think its extremely important to keep in mind that most Ahmed Maghribi fragrances have extremely high oil concentrations - which means that they will not project as much as an EDT or EDP. These fragrances shine (i.e. become nuclear room fillers) when they are sprayed on your pulse points and when your body heats up. Otherwise you will have a soft projecting but very long lasting fragrance (especially when sprayed on clothes). This fragrance is extremely versatile and is completely office/work safe. It's also really good for casual use. The incense makes it usable even in cold weather (10C where I live). Overall this is a solid 8.75 out of 10 for me.

A fresh, masculine woody fresh fragrance with a bold opening of citrus and marine notes, settling into a warm, spicy-amber dry-down. Performance is impressive—long-lasting with strong projection, making it ideal for daytime or evening wear. Comparable to Bleu de Chanel but richer and more intense, with a distinct Middle Eastern twist. Perfect for those who love versatile, crowd-pleasing scents with depth. A great value for its price!

just got it today a very replicated DNA of of Bleu De Chanel leaning towards the EDT and Parfum. Performance wise i would say spending like 25 or 30$ on this thing and getting 3 to 4 hours on skin and on clothes even longer like 10 to 12 hours and projection wise 2 to 3 hours of projection but for this price man i just wanna say forget these 100 200 dollar fragrances Ahmed Al Maghribi is the beast!!!!!!!

Very zesty and zingy opening, very uplifting and bright. Idc how close is it to the OG on its own it's very nice scent. Performance is average about 6 hours of longevity with 1 hour of projection but no complaints. 8/10

Lately becoming my fav go to fragrance , very safe for blind buy gets you compliments costs very less. Though lasting and projection is on moderate side and not on AAM standards still my Dumbreach reach fragrance

First Maghribi bought, the First spray Is massive, the sillage and longevity no. It disappear quickly. I let It macerates. 6/10

Incredible perfume, amazing quality very close to the OG, lasts 24 hours on clothes, a great value just love it!!!

One of the best purchases I've ever made. The moment I sprayed, I knew this was going to be my signature scent.

got 4 compliments in 1 hour but only lasts for 4 hours but cheap so respray dont rlly matter

Great BDC clone at this price. Loved it. Performance is pretty weak.

Need maceration at least 1 week after purchasing via online

I might be the only person in the world with this hot take but I don't like BDC. Man did I try to like it though. I know it's meant to be a clean fragrance and it is, but to my nose its also got something dark and dirty or funky that I find very unpleasant and ultimately unwearable. I like everything around it, except for that one thing, whatever it is (I think it's the way the incense is used). I have samples, have tried it in stores, have tried clones and they all share that thing I can't stand. Blue by Ahmed al Maghribi is the only version/inspiration of BDC that doesnt have this dirty note, or atleast tones it down to a level I can tolerate, finally allowing me to wear and enjoy this dna. Not a 1 to 1 but a close interpretation of BDC. Good performance, I get around 6 hours, cool bottle, pressurised atomiser, very good quality, all at a very good price. It's just a bit difficult to find right now in Europe.

You can pick this up ridiculous cheap £20-25 UK. The bottle and presentation feel premium. I've not owned BDC for a while (too expensive for cheapskate like me), but I do own both Armaf CDN iconic and Missoni pour home - both of which are said to have BDC vibes. This smells like neither but has something similar. After about an hour, it definitely has that smooth herbal floral lavender aromatic note of the Missoni, but s bit sweeter and less heavy. It also has that citrus and pepper note you get with CDN iconic, but not as strong. It's a very versatile easy spray for nearly any occasion you can think of - all seasons, casual to formal. It's not a beast mode room filler - maybe mine needs to mature a while, but I get a decent 5-6 hours where I can tell I'm wearing it. I've road tested it a few times over several weeks before writing this..For the price, this is great!

Finally added. It's fine, not sure if i remember how BDC smells like, but this is dominated by sandalwood, giving it that sunburnt citrus smell. Honestly i thought the oils expired or something due to that smell. Longevity and sillage are great, which is what's stopping me from disliking this fragrance. Edit: i think i have grown to like it more with time. Its versatility is great.

Gifted it to one of my friend. I have cdn iconic which does the job.

issue with its longevity, doesn’t last that long

Good summer time freshy, safe fragrance.

Nose Note #599 It doesn't give me the closest impression of BdC, but it's clear what it is trying to clone. With some BdC clones I was like "damn, yeah, this is Bleu de Chanel", but with (!!!) CDN Blue Iconic and this - I just don't feel it. I used to have the very first release of Bleu de Chanel just when it came out and I have only used it, J'ose Eisenberg and Amouage Epic Man. Smelling it upclose it doesn't impress me as BdC. In the sillage it's better. The longevity and sillage are confidently better than average. I'll give it more wearings. 8/10, with due respect to Al Maghribi I'm giving it an 8 in advance UPD 6/10, I really changed my mind. I was not getting the BdC vibes that much + it just felt annoying unlike all other BdC dupes

tl;dr: Had this perfume for a over a year now. Its an okay buy. Don't recommend it. The scent profile is accurate and you get a burst of the citrus and mint notes. The dry down on clothes lasts easily for 12 hours where I could smell it the next day as well. However, I don't recommend it as the citrus burst is eye and nose burning. It overwhelms me and the surrounding people within the first 15mins. After which, I doubt the longevity as I can barely smell it. Feeling noseblind, I asked my partner and they said its a faint sillage when they get close to me. Also the extrait de parfum concentration by AAM perfumes causes skin rash when directly applied. Not sure if this is a quality issue or incompatibility to my skin.

Good fragrance for short errands. I got it for only 10 euros, can't really complain about anything at that price point. It's decent.

Lasts longer than BDC EDP and Parfum both but doent project that strength is coming at a cost of smelling synthetic

Average performer And average perfume not bad not good

It’s only good for gym. So synthetic!

Its been a quite while i have this perfume. Trust me guy’s dont fall for this trap. Its bullsh*t. It smells good but dont even last on skin or clothes for more than 15 mins. I don’t know my batch is week or what. What I experienced is blend is very poor. I falled for this YouTube hype. Please whose so ever want to buy this fragrance don’t fall for it. I have almost this fragrance for a year now and I didn’t got any positives from this crap.

My first impressions were not great, but it’s not bad after maceration. Minty, Aquatic, peppery shower gel vibe. However, not unique or much character. Musky, Arabic base notes, which I’m usually not a fan of. I’m largely indifferent to this fragrance, I don’t care much about it or give it much thought, like the og bdc

Yes, as the name suggests, blue, I'd describe the scent as blue. Its performance is very strong and fresh. A fresh scent with a dry finish. A typical fresh scent that doesn't linger on my nose for too long. But overall, it's a fragrance I easily like and a great choice if I'm looking for a refreshing mood.

guys,the longevity is really good,i can smell it on me after 8 hours in hot weather and im working outdoors,the smell is typical,but is good .many compliments.

Better scent than Armaf iconic but basically a skin scent

guys, which one better this or iconic blue by armaf ?
