Whenever I wore it, I didnt really know what to think of it, but I never really liked it.
Bought this one today for the first time.
No performance issues for me. This stuff smells great for spring and summer.
The base of this fragrance is identical to D and G light blue for women.
I sprayed four times on myself. Perfect to quick errand runs in the summer or just something to throw on after the shower, before bed. However, its in a way that you dont completely hate it. This is an easy "dumb reach" in triple digit weather.
Versace man eau fraiche is a great smell, addictive, however its poor longevity along with many other fraiche/citrus based fragrances contribute to its downside. Lemon, bergamot, carambola, cedar.
I would say its lemony/citrusy goodness.
Use to wear with when i was younger , nice smell , not very good performance on longetivity or sillage .
This scent is a good dumb reach fragrance. Its fresh, clean, soapy, citrus.
I get waifs of it still at the ninth hour.
Some people have issues with the performance but I personally cant relate. This frag smells great when you spray it on. Targeting for people around teenager to 25yrs. Moderate, fresh smell. I don't know why many people say it's low qualitythis is not true :). Personally, the performance isnt the greatest and this definitely needs an EDP variety! Not a summer fragrance but one for those days where its after winter, the temp is 75, and the sky is cloudless. :).
I absolutely love this scent it was basically a toss-up between this fragrance and Versace Pour homme and I this one for me edges out pour homme without a doubt as probably my favorite summer scent followed closely by Versace pour homme and then Dolce & Gabbana light Blue forever, the performance is just okay but I always take a small decant of it and I just reapply if needed but whenever I wear this it just reminds me of a tropical island it really is a great scent and my favorite summer Versace summer scent.
After that it mellows, but it stays with me 8 or more hours. 
Fruity, woody, ozonic and aromatic with a sour zesty citrus pop and a slight pepperiness.
Has a nice cardamom hit throughout and the tangy star fruit makes a nice change from the usual synthetic melon or grapefruit notes used in fresh aquatics.
While the original Versace Man had a certain Latino vibe to it due to tobacco note in its oriental surroundings, Eau Fraiche has a Mediterranean quality with some woody notes.
The smell of this one is great , sillage and longevity is moderate.
This is a staple in my collection, its a perfume I can wear daily and never get tired of, its fresh and and smells so good on clothes. Try it for yourself, everyone has different DNA!!! This is a GORGEOUS fragrance, there's nothing like it. This is the best when you are on budget, but not long lasting.
I now find Versace Eau Fraiche more appealing. However, it does come off synthetic on my skin; so much so that it reminds me specifically of Windex.
Given as a gift as I like the way it smelt years ago. Perfume lovers: 792,071
Pleasant enough. A Summer staple. eau fraiche becomes woody spicy in the drydown I donno. Versace Eau Fraiche was created in 2006.
but a bit generic maybe. 2 hard stays in my skin, however, you can apply more later on your skin. Later it gets woodier but still the freshness remains.
Sort of a few small gold leaf embellishments on the artwork of your presence. Scent 8/10 Projection 1/10 Sillage 1/10 Performance 1/10.
I absolutely love the smell, but also you CANNOT beat the value.
Fresh citrus/lemon, and a smooth woody cedar, some aquatic notes to it.
This is the mens version of Light Blue for women!
Citrus lemon opening before becoming an amazing aromatic woody scent with juicy, succulent star fruit. I have a dream, just one dream, an "eau de parfum" flanker of this one.
The only flaw is probably the star fruit scent will give a relatively strong smell in an extremely high heat weather and make it a little bit "strange". 
wear this whenever you want.
But on the other hand my friend adores it so who am I to disagree.
1.7oz for $20. The mid is excellent though.
What an addictive scent. Its defiantly is more unique than Bleu de Chanel and other "blue" fragrances. Get it, it's a no brainer.
A great, quality fresh citrus fragrance for the price. You get a fresh, fruity opening with a watery vibe, with a tiny touch of spice from the pepper and cardamom, drying down with soft, clean musks. It reminds me of Mont Blanc Starwalker but Versace Eau Fraiche was launched one year after Mont Blanc Starwalker in 2006. Surprised by peoples comments on silage and longevity because its been following him around all day!
The performance is whack, so I find myself wearing this to the gym or when I am cycling outdoors. 
Versace Man Eau Fraiche was launched in 2006. Spray on clothes for better longevity.
@dmetzger can you finish chapter two please, this was an interesting read. I could get whiffs of this all day long. Everyone should have this in their collection. A very nostalgic smell to me for some reason. I think with this scent you can go a little heavier without choking anyone out. This stuff is really magic in a bottle.
Perfect for the summer months. Projects so well in direct sunlight and heat. Lovely soapy, powdery opening, sadly abysmal longevity. That chlorinated water note is the heavy hitter here so if you want to dredge up memories of swimming as a kid this is for you.
Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Pour Homme Le Parfum, Amber and Ambergris are Two Different Notes, Rice Perfumes That Stand Out From the Crowd, Should You Smell Someone Before Talking to Them? This is the second cologne that I have bought.
Even getting into some heat it barely revives the smell enough to even notice. Like when you do laundry day and your room or house has that nice clean laundry smell. Brilliant fresh choice to go with, no doubts, stood out in time. Heard about it's cult following and how it's a good summer fragrance for a lower cost so I picked up a bottle. after 1-1.5 hour it smells better.
I used to like Versace Pour Homme, but I no longer wear it. Smells really much like Hugo Boss Bottled Tonic but with better performance. This is just such a juicy, fresh, and clean smell with just a bit of musk.
However you can wear this in the cold and it somehow lasts longer for me.
Does not last too long though and has minimal sillage. The dry down smells quite fruity, definitely starfruit.
Ok, that's it , I can throw all my summer fragrances( and they are a lot)! I like it for what it is and I think it can be worn more than you think.
The first being Allure Homme Sport EDT which is a great safe fragrance for every occasion in my opinion. This isn't a beast mode fragrance but you'll smell the beautiful sexy blue masculine silliage when picked up by a cool outdoor breeze. It highly reminds me of hot summer evenings and pink sun sets that fade into crisp, clean nights while youre sat inside a tiki bar by the sea, drinking fruity cocktails and listening to good music with decent people. I agree with "xterminatoru", StarFruit note is bothering me, I think it should change to Lime for example, I think there is many better choices among citrus summer fragrances, longevity on my skin: about 3 hours. This new Versace Man version is fresher and more aquatic. This is the one fragrance that I swear Im anosmic to (no, I dont have covid).
I love it for its simplicity the most.
I liken it to an olfactory handjob from a suddenly curious Pat Sajak. A decent, cheap fragrance, standout point is that smells like a cucumber face mask and its light and unoffensive with decent longevity for its price. I don't know why but this reminds me of frat parties on a hot night. Thumbs up!
But there are plenty of other citrus scents I like more.
I wanted to buy a new bottle as my old one was almost empty. This is one of the most famous and most successful summer fragrances around the world.
Ive liked or loved them all.
But getting back on topic, this would be pretty good for someone getting into fragrances.
I get about 6 hours from this on my skin and I honestly wear it year round but of course this shines in the summer time.
Nice fresh scent for Summer during the daytime. Still prefer Light Blue but if youre sick of that, want some similar but a little different, grab this one. . This is strictly a warm weather fragrance so it's ideal for spring and summer. I give it a 9-9.5/10. Comparing it with Starwalker (Montblanc) is absolutely out of the question, which is a leathery aromatic to my nose, nothing like Eau Fraiche. the starfruit note makes this stuff super unique from everything else in my collection, Eau Fraiche is one of my favorite for the summer fragrance.
Versaces answer to DG Light Blue.
If youve not smelled it then do it now. I mistakenly told someone recently to not bother with Man Eau Fraiche because it didn't last but I was wrong. Its soft but masculine. 9.5/10.
Brother in law gifted me this one. I blew through a 3.4 in a hot summer.
If you're past college you're either wearing this outside on a summer's day to be inoffensive or at the office to let your cubicle neighbors know that you showered this morning.
Umema: The Perfume That'll Never Be Smelled, Off-White Paperwork: A Quartet of Contrasts, Versace Versace Man Eau Fraiche Colo (.
First thing first!
And although it gives you tropical beach vibes, there is no marine saltiness- rather you get slight sweetness and musk. Clean mountain breeze or whatever. I bought those gave away as a gifts. Summertime staple that is in most of our collections And if it isnt, it needs to be.
Its not overly masculine/feminine. It's really light, perfect daytime/summertime fragrance.
The bottle is absolutely beautiful and looks great in the collection, but ultimately, it's the juice inside that countsand this is where Versace Eau Fraiche fails. This is a very good scent to wear indoors during wintertime. Its unique in that its an aquatic fragrance but not beach/ocean water aquatic but more pool water aquatic. really good. Safe blind buy, but nothing overly exciting. This is a simple scent that's super easy to wear, but is just complex enough for it to not be boring and generic.
Lots of people wrote here it's gone after 3-4h, but I still can feel it after about 8h (applied it 3 times, but there weather wasn't hot today, just +18-20 degrees, maybe it helped).
its really up there with some of the best summer fragrances light dolce gabanna the one.
With moderate performance and longevity, this is quite good for a freshie and much versatile for date, party, work or school. This scent is awesome. I bought it because I smelled it on hired help 4 years ago and really liked it, and what I got was certainly different. The samples always seem expensive but after a few mistakes they'd easily pay for themselves. Man, it's very nice, powerful.
This fragrance is bright, zingy, and kinda obnoxious. I suppose its great for an intimate thing. Right now since I'm testing it inside the house in a controlled environment the fragrance doesn't flourish and just sticks to you. About 15 minutes it has a nice fresh citrus, almost apple-melon kind of scent.
Considering the price you better get the Blue Seduction. Those who upvote the lemon and bergamot probably have never smelled or eaten a starfruit. If you want to smell clean and fresh but also sexy this will do the job very nicely. You cant go wrong with this!
I think this is best used not as a fragrance to wear for a day out, but just to refresh yourself on a hot day, even storing it in the fridge as some suggest. With that amount of sprays, I get about 4-5 hours. I think its the star fruit that gives it that juicy tropical vibe.
Citrus bomb, You will smell fresh and clean.
Beautiful citrus scent. Maybe it just doesnt work on me. It smells explicitly fruity and not like citrus peel. Probably my favorite dumb reach summer scent. They said it was almost like dryer lint. I have to give Eau Fraiche a negative review, despite owning it. Become a member of this online perfume community and you will be able to add your own reviews. Not versatile at all though. Great casual non offensive fragrance. Price is easy on the wallet too. Its sweet, lemony and fresh and I'm not a fan of this type of fragrance. This fragrance doesnt really need an introduction, basically a staple in every mans collection, super juicy citruses, woody, fresh.
It's great for any season, in my opinion.
If you don't know what starfruit smells like, you'll definitely know after smelling versace man eau fraiche. Blind bought it and no regrets in the world. Hope this helps anyone on the ledge about getting it! Aroma by Costa Brazil: Candidate For Best Fragrance 2022?
Denimish. I love this scent, to me, it smells like a Capri Sun or a light refreshing flavored water. It is not complex and easy to wear in hot summers and is a very good outdoors option where it performs even better in the sun. Clean, complex & classy fragrance. I wouldnt wear it in high heat.
Just couldn't smell it on myself after a few minutes. It's like i was there myself. Scent is also very weak, one of the weakest I've ever tried. All time favorite and adorable scent I have.
Not usually big on citrus smelling fragrances but this one is pretty lightweight.
But be careful, no more then three sprays. I'll never forget the silliage that picked up in the wind off my skin.
Can pull off in spring also and definite no no in winter. However, I can see this one blossoming in the heat and with some added body heat. In my collection of 75, man eau fraiche is in my top 10 favorite. The notes listed above and most of the descriptions below are correct. not good performance but doesn't really matter. Most complimented fragrance I have ever had right here. Super crisp and clean with just a slight floral and powdery quality at dry down.
It really grows on you. The two scents are interchangeable.
You can't ask for much for something reasonably priced. But then it turns pretty synthetic.
i have 2016 batch and eau fraiche goes like 7 hours sometimes 8+. I sort of forgot about it as I hadn't really seen much advertising for it until lately so bought a 100ml bottle for a decent price. Lasting power from this isn't something I usually prefer but it is nice to have a few scents that don't stick around for 8 hours. The only drawback i would say is that, since this is so popular, you might end up smelling like someones ex. Due to the weaker performance and fairly gentle scent, you could go heavy on sprays and smell fresh and clean without being overpowering. Versace Man Eau Fraiche by Versace is a Woody Aquatic fragrance for men. A truly masterful scent that I will never be without.
I mean powerful.
I wasn't planning on buying it since i already have my favorite summer fresh fragrance (Hermes Eau Tres Fraiche)..but I happen to see the Versace Eau Fraiche discounted at a pharmacy in my country for just $30 (100ml)!
Today I received 3 bottles of perfume from a discounter Versace Man Fraiche, LHomme Rochas and Boucheron Jaipur EDP Jaipur was the cheapest of the three, at 20 a bottle, and took the lead, closely followed by Rochas and far behind came Versace Man Fraiche this did not perform well on my skin.
Lemon cream pie in the bottle.
Fresh, summery, aquatic frag at its best while being alluringly masculine. Perfect performance for warm weather. Maybe some wearers just have drier skin? These lemony notes are blended here with lots of clean musk molecules what I really love. I can spray this 10 times and barely smell anything & what I do pick up faintly resembles some sort of house cleaner (think Windex) . Its a little something extra to whatever you are, and isnt likely to upstage you.
solid,i like it, resemble a bit of light blue but they are different , worth trying (50ml).
It's been about 15 years, needless to say, I tried it again and scored an early tester. One the best summer fragrances I know and have. I bought the smell-a-likes before eventually getting this one. only for hot summer days. More like the flesh of a stale lemon.
The woodsy drydown and the lack of sweetness makes this one of the most masculine Versace fragrances out there.
If you find yourself doing a lot of outdoor activities, man eau fraiche is a no-brainer.
I always get compliments when I wear this one. Also people who say this doesn't last I have one question, WHERE DO YOU BUY YOU'RE FRAGRANCES?? My favorite summer perfume i had forgotten how good it is. I remembered that I tested on counter and brought the paper test back to my home. Boyfriend tried this and my god. I got a sample of this and found it very refreshing! Sniffing at the first time was amazing and fresh, but when dried down they seems to be a bit strong spicy to me which I did not like much. Other Versace fragrances are mainstream designers that are appealing and safe to purchase for those who arent collectors. Versace Man Eau Fraiche opens with a sharp, lively, uplifting citrus accord, featuring lemon, bergamot and starfruit.
This is one you can constantly keep smelling on skin without it turning nasty or weird. Well except for the fact that this fragrance is slightly synthetic smelling but is that really all that bad? If you favor citrus scents that have more going on than just the fruit, you must try this. Its the perfect summer fragrance and its light and easy to wear. They dont smell the same, but the overall feeling and vibe is very similar. They are, however, very different in the mid and drydown, as Eau Fraiche introduces this subtle spice and woodiness which takes it from being a simple freshie to being a bit more, in my opinion. It's a pleasant and well-made fragrance for sure. Great for summer wear. Along with Terre d'Hermes, Tobacco Vanille, BR 540 and Pure Malt. I just got a sample and sniffed it.
Its for sure a really nice spring/summer day fragrance.
It's your typical blue fragrance (blue as in Polo Blue, not bleu as in Bleu de Chanel) from the mid 00s. With this one, what can I say?
When I smelled it on a friend one day, I realized that I didnt like the smell at all and gave it away.
Or wear them individually as a couple because they have something extremely similar to them. There are plenty of other great fresh fragrances out there.
This reminds me of my grandmother. Its biggest weakness is that it's just not that interesting.
I find myself in the same boat here I am with many citrus heavy frags.
Not even remotely close.
Smells a little thinner and a tiny bit more synthetic than Versace but I'm gonna take that all day long before cheesy feet. In my experience this smells the best outside, this doesn't project silage as good indoors, Super fresh and crisp scent. Versace Versace Man Eau Fraiche Colo (36.00 USD), Buy it online BIG SALE on or Many items for sale on, Perfume rating4.17out of5 with9,427 votes.
The star fruit note gives a twist of something uncommon and the affordable price makes it a great "by the pool" or BBQ choice.
I like Bleu de Chanel, La Nuit De La Homme Saint Laurent, Coolwater, D&G The one, Versace Man Eau Fraiche Versace, Bulgary man in black orient..I like smell of Samsara Guerlain but never found equivalent in any men perfume.
very VERY fresh. I have them both and couldnt believe it after the dry down of the citruses of my newly arrived Bvlgari, I thought it would take another direction but no, I just paid 2x for the same cologne, It should be illegal for one big nose to copy another.
What more can I say, Citrusy in the opening and woodsy in the dry down. My collection has grown a lot since last summer when I basically wore this every day but even with more options this is still a great dumb reach on a hot day. Tested it on my hand a local belk. Either the heat and sweat revived it or I just couldn't smell it the whole time.
As a woman I will simply say: you wanna get the attention of the opposite sex? it's just so good. The nose behind this fragrance is Olivier Cresp. Great fresh fragrance,bubblegum melon vibes,great for summer.
Star fruit, fresh box of printer paper circa 1999, and pool water evaporating off of concrete on a hot day.
I saw this yesterday at Ross for 54 bucks, lol..smh.
Literally smells like summer at the pool in the park! Fresh, cooling and crisp. I think that This is really underrated fragrance its fresh, long-lasting, unique (not quite), sillage is good and the price is great what more would you want?
But I guess now I would just say it's a kind of synthetic powdery smell that is mixing with the aquatic notes.
Damned good fragrance. I've purchased other colognes and wanted to like them because they were so popular but just couldn't. This will decrease after 20-30 mins to a watery sweet, spicy accord which lasts for 4 hours. Versace is the man,named & blended this so perfectly,no matter what year it is,this cant be beat!!! From the top to the dry down, it smells like Windex on my skin.
Is very citrus opening and then changes. It doesn't have any.
This was the first fragrance I have owned.
L'Instinct, the New Flanker of Habit Rouge by Guerlain, Dusita Montri: Fragrance Review & Musings on Classicism, Encens Pyro and Encens Kapnos Maison Incens. A spicy aquatic!
However, it is sexy enough to be worn at night and out on the town. The longevity/projection are both average but in the summer heat nobody wants to be overpowered by someone elses fragrance. Nice one and well made, a little bit more shy than Azzaro sport in performance, but appears more clean on dry down. On me, longevity is great, I get around 6 to 8 hours with 5 sprays and projection last for about 3 to 4 hours. It's simple, light, refreshing, and universally likeable. Everyone should wear this fragrance on rainy days.
Before such blind test I rank these as below, even though 1st and 4th place are very close in scent quality in my opinion: When I first got into fragrances, while I still liked this, I used to think it was a bit of a douchey scent. This is a summery aquatic aromatic that has a pool water shower gel vibe with a hint of woods. The scent lasts very short time.
Nice to see all the new reviews for this must have for any collection. I sampled this at Macys and loved the smell, however it doesnt last long :( if this was stronger Id definitely consider buying one for my collection.
Once the lemon dissipates enough to detect the musk and amber base notes less than 2 hours later, I had to put my nose to my shirt just to smell a hint of the fragrance. Ive gifted this many times and everyone who received it loved it.
Very fresh aquatic, somewhat woody and slightly spicy. Not a fan. Like previous reviewers have mentioned, this smells like your skin just after you get out of a pool.
it performs great on my skin.
Starts of with a nice citrus offering then dries down into a nice fruity vibe. Its easy to go anosmic to, but trust me its lasting a lot longer than you think. Can't go wrong with this one.
Super fresh, I see why people love it and why it sells so well. The remainder is a thin, sharp, and often sour 2-dimensional fragrance that lasts for about an hour and a half before disappearing into a trace of synthetic musk.
Not very long lived but at least it does project.
If you're in high school this will make you smell cool. Plenty of reviewers talked about how this was an amazing compliment monster that everybody would like, but a friend of mine and one of my parents each separately told me that they did not like the way I smelled while wearing it. This probably is my most dissapointing blind buy, its legit scented water, smells like orange/mandarin peels mixed with water.
I have never smelled a more well blended aquatic fresh fragrance, and I have and smelled a lot of designers and niche ones.
