Eau Fraiche is a refreshing citrus fragrance. It is recommended for daytime use during summer. The top notes are mandarin orange and lemon. The heart is made of rosewood, while vanilla and oak moss are in the base. Eau Fraiche was launched in 1953. The nose behind this fragrance is Edmond Roudnitska.
Lemon fizz, almost lemon pledge, is the only part of this scent that I could sniff on my skin...definitely not full bottle worthy, glad I did a sample! OK for what it is, but no longevity and fairly flat.
Quality and classiness are what I smell here! This is my all time favourite cologne. Would probably marketed as a unisex or even a masculine today, given some of the treacly stuff that gets doused about. Wear this and the French Riviera some how seems a little closer.
I have the 'les creations'-version and today I used it again after a long time.
It helped me to forget a hard day at work after taking a long shower.
I almost forgot how clean this scent smells!
Knowing a little more about- and having tried more perfumes now (since visiting this site ahem..), I'm figuring out why I like scents or not...like scents with citrus for instance...a few months ago I would have stated that I HATE scents with citrus/lemon in it...period! But now I know this is too bold a statement...and that it all depends on with which other notes the citrus/lemon is combined.
In Eau Fraiche this is so well done! No dishwashing or cleaning come's to mind, instead just freshness and soothing thoughts.
Actually, the citrus/lemon here stands out for being modest, giving way to it's fellow notes that are mentioned.
Asif it underlines them, instead of overruling them...
Done, I think, in the more classic way than in the modern scents that seem to compete in being 'plain' for not changing in the developingproces...
It reminds me of Estee from Estee Lauder for being clean and of Eau de Campagne for being aromatic, yet in a more gentle and feminine way.
for me it's the Feminine EAU SAUVAGE
so classy with the fresh mandarin orange opening wich i lovvee.
then it's more sweet and flowery, great!
i'm so happy that it's has been released with other dior classics.
It's been re-released and I love it!
I have an original bottle passed down to me from my grandmother. It is in its original box, too. I love it. Yes. Perfect in summer. I leave it in the fridge and splash it on before work or upon returning home. Whenever I need to feel fresh and awake. Love this one.
Smells like an old style men’s scent. Strong mandarin and bergamot with a touch of sandal and other notes. Well blended and rather tasty, but not really feminine. (Not a problem, just an observation.)
