Good for 15 mins
Opening is super pleasant. Fresh, juicy, icy blast that really refreshes you. Not a very common scent either, would make a great office/everyday choice. Everything after that falls off a cliff tho. It's mostly just dry musky woods but done in a slightly unpleasant way, and stays more or less linear from the end of the opening all the way until it fades. Performance is quite weak overall, everything after the opening is just a skin scent, tho that's probably for the best. I can't see a reason to buy this, tho it is a bit of a different choice the drydown kills it

All except freezy
tested today at the sephora in Lyon part dieu.

I had heard about it without more so it was the opportunity to discover it, especially with the very hot day an icy effect was welcome.

except that this perfume is neither fresh and even less icy. It smells good, a smell that I don't remember having ever smelled. Synthetic, pleasant but nothing more.

ideal for a person who does not have a huge collection and who is looking for a perfume that can match almost every season and stand out with a rare but not tenacious smell because after 2 hours the perfume no longer smelled.

Disappointment
What a shame to have this brand image, this beautiful bottle ... everything to succeed ; but what a mediocre execution and what expensives prices ! .

It seems that it won't last too much but it does at a low profile , the problem is that the smell lacks presence, grace, shine, quality.

It's , like almost everything one finds on the shelves , very safe-mode , as to take it to the office and reapply in the middle of the day . For unpretentious circumstances .

I detect spices , musks , but the problem to me is that I find a prominent note which reminds me of ambroxan that I usually don't like . It isn't listed in the pyramid but for me it has a very clear feeling .

Being so minimal , I should try it more times and without interferences to give more details buuuut , NEXT in every ways .

No honour to the name
Normally I try not to be impressed by the marketing campaigns of perfume manufacturers. In the case of Glacial Essence, I only succeeded to a limited extent. Mountains and glaciers, plus the promise of a very icy fresh scent, were enough to make me want to test the new Bulgari. So quickly a test here ersoukt and from the (ski) ride ...
The top note absolutely keeps what the image film promises. A very cool freshness lies pleasantly on the skin. None of the fragrances exceeds the other, everything is very smoothly coordinated. Unfortunately, this feeling fades away after only a few minutes.

The heart and base notes are dominated by a rather penetrating sweetness that reminds me a lot of the Edt of Dolce & Gabbana K, which was/is absolutely not my cup of tea. A fragrance that tends towards summer shouldn't be that sweet in my opinion. At over 30 degrees, you probably just want to get the scent off your skin. Especially after the promising opening, the fragrance development is a bitter disappointment for me or rather a sweet disappointment. Although Glacial Essence is not a total flop, Bulgari hasn't launched a box office hit with this scent either. Definitely not suitable for a blind purchase. It's a pity when you consider that Alberto Morillas, an absolute master of his craft, is behind this creation.

The shelf life is sufficient, the sillage not necessarily. For an EdP both are below average

Very refined, slightly smokey-cold and almost incensed, it's a very good fragrance to wear in the mid -warm season.Good projection. Classy.

It's a soapy synthetic mess, from the start all the way through dry down. Very disappointing.

Glacial? This copy of the cheap, synthetic, aquatic, sweet, slightly woody fragrances from the 90' like Hugo Dark Blue? Useless creation.
