Glacier Bold

this is one of the most delicious fragrances i've smelled on my skin. it's fresh, sweet, and a bit tropical, with a noticeable pineapple note that isn't overly juicy but never feels artificial either. honestly, calling scents "synthetic" is overrated, especially since le beau edp itself has a slightly synthetic vibe. as a dupe, glacier bold does resemble le beau edp, but it also reminds me of the edt, sitting somewhere perfectly in between, it feels like the best way to describe it. beautiful, versatile, and likely my new signature scent. my husband, who usually dislikes masculine fragrances, finds it pleasant and easy to wear, even if it doesn't surprise him much. it feels very youthful, maybe even too youthful, making it perfect for a twink or someone who enjoys playful, casual, and seductive scents. i wouldn't recommend it for formal settings or if you consider yourself mature or are over 30. this is for carnal, informal moments where you want to feel attractive without trying too hard. overall, it's an incredible fragrance (and i haven't even let it macerate yet).

I'm gonna give you the facts with no BS since i figured most of the people in here haven't even tried LB/LBLP or own it... i do. 1. This is a hybrid scent, it is trying to emulate the Le Parfum dna but ends up being Le Beau EDT + Pineapple. Le parfum has this hard candy like sweetness that is not here, instead, you get a powdery, citrusy coconut, just like the EDT. I'd say 80% LB 20% LBLP. Side by side, the quality is like 15% worse in the Maison Alhambra, but definitely not that different. 2. I had reviewed this before, my older bottle was kind of a bad batch in terms of performance, plus, i go noseblind to this scent profile easily. I sold it and bought it again, this one performs way better. I get 5-6 hours of decent projection and sillage, stays on skin for about 8 hours. 100% beats my LB edt, but not a good performer as the Le Parfum, which easily gives you beast mode results. Spring, summer, fall and winter appropriate. Worth it 10/10 if you love JPG, overall an 8.5/10 for the average person, I'd see why would someone not like this, try it before purchasing.

I bought a 10mL decant of this stuff since I'm pretty uninterested on all of JPGs releases (I only enjoyed UM but hated og Le Male and Le Male le Parfum) but le beau le Parfum and elixir seem to get all of the hype, and I wanted to try either of them out. Although this is not an exact clone, most reviewers say it is like 95% close, and with me owning several Maison Alhambras I can definetly say that they are so good at cloning the real deal, some of them are undistinguishable from their inspiration. I've never smelled Le Beau LP but if it's this but better quality I need to get me a bottle of it. This is sweet, ambery and lactonic, I like the opening, but the mid dry down really clicked with me and my skin. I get 10 hours on skin with 3 hours of pretty loud projection. Quality is decent for a clone and I like how in my skin I can detect a smoky aspect, which I don't see anyone else mention. Great buy for a beginner, I might get a full bottle of this or the og both are probably excellent designer fragrances. 8.9/10

I rarely review but I must say this is by far and away my favorite of all the 22 fragrances I own. I am in love with the coconut and pineapple. However, it slowly fades into a powdery tonka bean scent. The presentation is awesome and the smell is even better. This scent is probably best used throughout spring, summer, and fall. It might cloy a little during the summer months but less sprays would remedy that. The only critique that I can say is probably the longevity. While, it does last a while, about 4-6 hours for me, I would've hoped it would have gone for longer. But its a $21 clone so I really can't complain. Especially since, everyone around me also agrees that this is my best cologne. This is my first review and for good reason. This is a summer-MUST 10/10.

This is a quintessential layering perfume, perfectly unisex and addictive on its own. The tonka really stands out to me, and only after it greets me does the coconut and bergamot hit. This is a rare instance which bergamot doesn't smell purely of fabric softener, but actual citrus. Rare being... this is the only time this has ever happened for me. For that alone it gets high marks. My only critique is a minor one I half-expected: it's just shy of arm's length. For a perfume I intend to layer with, that's not terrible. Hardly something to complain about. Because the tonka is so rich to me, I think this is a solid year-round fragrance. Especially if you live closer to the equator, it just makes sense. Coconut doesn't have to be restricted to one season.
