Emporio Armani In Love With You Freeze

Testing a sample today. It's really nice. A very joyful fragrance, really well blended. Don't be scared of the cherry note, I didn't test the original ILWY but in here it is very subtle. ETA: Got a full bottle, after wearing it for a while now I may say it can easily be shared, as it has a masculine quality to it, not in a bad way. No, it doesn't smell like a masculine fragrance, it has a touch of explicit sensuality. The fruity notes go away after a while and we are left with this gorgeous, minty ("freeze"?) woody skin scent - oh, I'm really in love with the dry down, I feel hugged. I don't see it as a mass appealing fragrance tho, but nobody will dare to say you don't smell awesome. Not the best performance for an EDP, but is good enough.

I love this. Maybe it's the patchouli, but I get strong Coco Mademoiselle-vibes from this. Of course this isn't a dupe for it, there're the cherries and an overall bubbliness in this, but something about this makes me think of Coco M. In itself In Love With You Freeze is fruity but not too girly, bubbly yet earthy, dry but warm. This is really beautiful, multi-dimensional, feminine, sophisticated and tender. I really really love this. [edit] Ok I flipped. This is so wonderfully weird with the sweetness and the woodiness, that I got scared that it would be discontinued. Long story short - is it wrong to have two full-sized backup bottles? In addition to the opened one currently in use? 🤭

Earthy, warm and sensual. Reminds me of the Emporio Armani Diamonds Intense which, like this perfume, is also sadly discontinued. A little goes a long way and it sticks around all day. Absolutely in love!

Is my favorite perfume ! Is best version of "because it's you" Sillage is 9/10 Longevity is also 9/10 This perfume is suitable for date or evening dresses

This little beauty came home with me today. It was a must. More details will come later, but, it is a solid 10/10.

Ok so I don't understand why this fragrance has so many dislikes, not every fragrance has to be revolutionary or mindblowing, there's literally nothing displeasing about this scent. It's very inoffensive and crowd pleasing and so what? Not everybody likes to wear "unique" fragrances all the time, sometimes you just need something quick to spritz without putting too much thought about it, you don't need to always wear "masterpieces" or niche-like perfumes. I think people's expectations are sometimes over the roof and when those high expectations aren't met then everything quickly becomes a dislike. Like, it's a flanker of In love with you, there isn't anything unique in there either, but surely these are very nice, easy to wear scents. With that being said: This has actually been a really pleasant surprise, I can smell some sweet candied fruits and to my nose, some nutty accords? Let's not forget the cherries, that are nicely balanced with the freshness of the citrus that you also get when you first spray this . Even though this is a pretty sweet fragrance, it has a freshness that forbids this scent of becoming an extremely sweet, over the top, cloying juice. I don't really understand why this flanker has the word Freeze attached to it, as I don't find this fragrance particularly cooling, I just think this is a nice typical fruity-fresh type of scent, not offensive in any way. I think it's going to be lovely for spring or for summer nights, sipping fruity cocktails on a patio while you can feel the breeze carrying the scent of blooming flowers or ripe fruits from the trees.

Because it's you and In love with you (I have the second one in my collection, don't ask me why) are kind of similar in their character. Here we have a completely new 'frozen' story and to be honest I didn't expect to like it. I was expecting a new fruitchouli edition but...if some of you call Because it's you haribo-jellish sweet due to raspberry and In love with you an ordinary fruitchouli because of cherry-patchouli combo as I did, In love with you-Freeze smells exactly like reds "Fisherman's Friend" caramels! (I hope you all know them, some people in Greece used to call them date candies). I couldn't give a better description of the total smell. I love peonies and I can't get them but for sure there is some in it covered from so many strong base notes. It's like a minty rosie scent. It starts a bit floral and ordinary but it ends up quickly to this minty/spicy (not green) rosie and musky character. A perfect combo of bergamot-rose-musk in a way those that hate rose could wear it. It reminds me a lot of Nina Ricci L'extase, a bit of Narciso Fleur Musc, something that you've smelled before but diffenately not something you would ignore as it's so nice. I'll take the risk to say it has a character, something very rare for new releases. Fresh, not freeze is the word suits it the most. Sillage and lasting power are very good.

With the name "Freeze" and the frosted bottle I expected this to be light and sorbet-like, but it's not. It's a very patch-focussed fruitchouli! Much less sweet than In Love With You EDP. There is still a sweet and juicy cherry in this, but the overall scent is more green and earthy, almost like a modern chypre. I also get a slightly naughty musk note similar to the musk in Narciso Rodriguez For Her which I usually dislike, but it's all right here. Weirdly I also don't mind the lily of the valley in this, another note I usually can't stand. To my nose this has two distinct layers that never really mix, one of earthy, mossy patchouli, greens and musk, and one of sweet cherry juice. It's quite unexpected to me and I like it.

I am reviewing the last few drops that I have left of this fragrance... To me, there is a lovely balance of warmer / sweet and woodier / fresh notes. The patchouli (the perfumey one, not the dirty / earthy one) is prominent throughout the drydown. I used to wear Coco Mademoiselle and Miss Dior back in the day and do not consider Freeze as a replacement or close relative. However, I can understand why people compare them to each other because the patchouli note is very similar, but nothing more. Freeze is a nice, easy-reach fragrance, but somehow also forgettable because there is nothing that adds a specific and memorable character to this composition, opposed to Coco Mademoiselle or Miss Dior.

this is my mum's current perfume, and i was captivated by its opening. it's sweet and bubbly, but not overly so. it almost smelled like a litchi-citrusy drink to me (someone said grapefruit i can sense that a bit too). dry down is quite reminiscent of coco mademoiselle (which i really really like). i'd say this perfume is more youthful, more summery though. i was also surprised to see cherry in the notes; i can't stand cherry-heavy perfumes, they make me nauseous. i honestly didn't get much cherry, maybe hints of it, which i appreciated. all in all, lovely perfume, might not buy a full bottle but i'll borrow my mum's :P

I got this because the person who bought it didn’t like it but I actually really enjoyed it. It’s definitely very strong and came out quite sweet on me, I didn’t get that overly masculine vibe a lot of people mention. It really is a cool, icy fragrance, fresh and sharp in a way that matches the name perfectly. It’s very long lasting too!!! It’s not something I’d go out of my way to buy for myself again though.

I love this perfume get some compliments

This fragrance seems to be Unisex perfume but tends to masculine aspect more than feminine aspect, the ingrediants of flowers and cherry is the secret of the tendency to feminine aspect, hence, the Patchouli and Woody Notes then the citrusy are too sharp Overwhelming the other ingrediants in base notes which make tendency to masculine aspect. This perfume will be more suitable in summer or at night. It lasts 8 hours on the leather and one day on the clothes. interested experience of this perfume in 30ml bottle but, I don't like to re-buy it again, I think there is another perfumes in market more feminine and classy. يبدو أن هذا العطر عطر يناسب الجنسين ولكنه يميل إلى الجانب الرجولي أكثر من الجانب الأنثوي، فمكونات الزهور والكرز هي سر الميل إلى الجانب الأنثوي، حيث أن نفحات الباتشولي والأخشاب ثم الحمضيات حادة للغاية تغلب على المكونات الأخرى في قاعدة العطر مما يجعلها تميل إلى الجانب الذكوري. سيكون هذا العطر مناسبًا أكثر في الصيف أو في الليل. يدوم 8 ساعات على الجلد ويوم واحد على الملابس. تجربة ممتعة لهذا العطر في زجاجة 30 مل، لكني لا أحب إعادة شرائه مرة أخرى، أعتقد أن هناك عطور أخرى في السوق أكثر أنوثة ورقي.

I would never buy it by myself. I get that bottle as a love confession and even if before that gift I wasn’t “in love with...” him, I wasn’t “in love with...” him even stronger after that feral present haha. The juice is perfectly linked to the bottle. I am not hyperbolic, I am super literal - I can’t name and even imagine more generic scent and more generic bottle. I emptied this using it as a deodorant on days in which I didn’t care about my image. (Don’t judge me please, I swear my chemistry work well with this type of thing! at all events I didn’t get any complaint :D). It’s so boring, insipid and unremarkable. It’s for everything and for nothing.

This doesn’t work for me, I don’t think the sweet and woodsy notes meld together, like the unsuccessful layering of two scents. Although the fruit has a slight sourness it is super sweet. To me the opening is like raspberry coulis with spun sugar progressing to a more distinct cherry note in the middle notes. The wood notes are the best bit for me and I don’t find this masculine in the slightest. Other cons: Poor longevity and silage. It can last if oversprayed on clothes. Not a fan of the bottle or name.

The opening is a sharp floral. It reminds me of some flowery cologne, in a rustic way. The flower smell is vivid, you could see yourself holding a bunch of wild flowers, freshly cut. Then it tones down and becomes a pleasant fragrance. This is definitely a departure from all synthetic fragrances out there. At the same time, a return to roots, to perfume distillation from raw plant material.

The opening is particularly not my cup of tea, very sharp and oddly masculine. However, I like the drydown where it gets slightly sweeter, musky and less patchouli-dominant. As someone have said, In Love With You Freeze has strong Coco Mademoiselle EDP vibes. I find this easily unisex, for me this is just a pass.

I absolutely loved this perfume when I first got it. But the more I wore it, the less I liked it. Eventually I found myself sick of it and was not reaching for it at all. I think the cherry-vetiver combination is what's putting me off. Woody yet sweet in the least pleasant way possible. Not a safe blind buy for sure. I recommend you try it multiple times before you purchase a bottle. Cheap packaging too.

Very sharp, fresh, cold and masculine. Absolutely not what I would want to wear as a woman. Smells more like a men’s aftershave.

Way too much Patchouli. Gives off a really masculine feel. One spray choked me out. And that’s coming from an oversprayer. It’s nothing like the OG. I’m so glad I didn’t take a dive and blind buy a bottle. Instead I bought a travel size which even that was too much tbh.
