I looked at Boulogne when it came out and was a bit underwhelmed BUT i'm actually still thinking about it. I think my main issue with it is that i think its overpriced for what it is, in my mind you get much more bag for 100 extra for something like the Pochette Metis.
The reasons i'm still thinking about it are as follows:-
-If i bought it back in July when i looked at it i'd have worn it everyday since.
-Its a great grab & go bag.
-Perfect size if you just need wallet, keys, face mask and some small bits and pieces.
-For me i liked it shoulder carry, it didnt look as good cross body but strap is long enough on my body to wear cross body if i needed or wanted to.
-Its a bag i think i'd still be reaching for in 5/10 yrs time.

So it turns out, I’m a person who proceeded to purchase both bags. This has got to stop
I love the Odeon PM, especially the front pocket. It is the most easy to wear and comfortable bag I own. That being said, I have also been thinking about the Boulogne……the chain detail is beautiful eye candy!
Definitely return. When the new Odeon first came out, I didn’t like it. Fast forward a year later, I needed a functional crossbody. I ordered the new DE PM and it’s my favorite bag to carry…
Hi, I liked everything about it except for the size...it was way too small.
I also got the Boulogne after seeing it in store, and wear it most of the time now. I will keep my Odeon and will switch around from time to time. I love both but I find the Boulogne just a little neater and not quite as long and bulky. It tucks into the body when you wear it, just right. The Odeon’s advantage is the front pocket which can’t be beat. They should have made a back slip pocket on the Boulogne and it would have been perfect.
