Personally, I enjoy the overall smell of Eau Fraiche versus Light Blue. There is plenty of overlap between these two, but Eau Fraiche feels like a woodier aroma to me. The dry down is more full of rosewood and amber, but the citrus hangs around throughout. Versace Man Eau Fraiche has a very enjoyable opening act. It’s fairly linear, but gets the job done. I like the citrus and spice mix, with the herbal and woody notes in the dry down. You can’t really go wrong with buying this fragrance, as it is well liked, and brings a good performance for a citrus based scent. This can be a tough match up to decide on, as these have a similar profile, and are pretty simple colognes. Neither is a club beast and are more ‘nice smelling’ than sexy. They’re both best sellers because they are non-offensive and are great starter fragrances. These are two very versatile fragrances, as they can hold up well in the heat, are pleasant, and can go casual or to the office. Either way you measure it, I’ve always gotten better performance out of Light Blue. That performance is like clockwork.Įau Fraiche is a 6-7 hour wear, but not more than that, and the sillage is lighter towards the end of the 3-4 hour mark.Įau Fraiche isn’t a powerhouse or a crazy performer. Light Blue always gets me in the 6-8 hour range of wear, and as I said, it is consistent during that time. Fraiche has a lighter sillage, hours into the wear, versus Light Blue.įraiche is just not as heavy of a fragrance, even if Light Blue isn’t all that heavy either. That being said, while they start off pretty much the same, Light Blue is more consistent for longer. They aren’t going to fill up a room and are pretty moderate. Neither one of these scents have giant silage. Light Blue has more going on up front, but the Versace just has a better presentation in that opening act. I prefer it to the spiciness found in the D&G. Which is better? I really like the great lemon citrus of Versace Man Eau Fraiche, when combined with the starfruit, the opening is super clean and pleasant. It has some herbal elements, but not the pepper, found in the competitor.Īs it moves along, the cardamom and tarragon will become more apparent, before moving into a woodier phase. It’s a very refreshing and juicy citrus smell without the same level of spiciness of Light Blue. A clean and fresh blend.Īfter about 10 minutes of wear with Light Blue, I do get the incense note coming through more, a touch of smokiness.Įau Fraiche kicks things off with lemon and bergamot, but adds starfruit, which gives it a very nice and distinct juicy aroma. These notes are then joined black pepper and rosemary. Light Blue starts off with a blend of citrus notes from bergamot to grapefruit to mandarin orange.
