NEW Jimmy Choo Man Ice Cologne and Jimmy Choo L’EAU Perfume Review

Last night I went out on the town with my husband and we decided to try the new Jimmy Choo fragrances. Fun and flirty for me, seductive and bold for him – a vivacious intermingling of summer scents that still linger in the air and cling to our clothes this morning.

L’EAU is fresh and light yet prominent and sexy. It reminds me of an amazing smelling shampoo I once owned – the kind that you revel in as it blows through your hair on a warm day, with sweet, romantic notes that you can’t get enough of. The vibrant composition includes bergamot, hibiscus, nectarine and peony balanced with an enticing woody base of cedar and musk.

This is a perfume that is suitable for every occasion. It’s elegant and refined yet adventurous and alluring – great for date night or an evening out with the girls. As light dances across the pale pink bottle, it adds feminine ambiance to your decor.

The harmonized blend is whimsical, sweet and youthful without overwhelming the senses. It fades nicely as the day wears on and works with your body chemistry to emit a soft, enchanting aroma that you’ll want to wear everyday! The 90 ml bottle featured here retails for $107.00 and there is a 60 ml available.

By contrast, Jimmy Choo Ice Man is raunchy, masculine and intoxicating – perfect for a day at the office or an unforgettable summer evening. It’s the kind of aroma that turns heads and attracts attention – always leaving you wanting more. The composition is enriched with an abundance of deep, masculine notes including: mandarin oil, bergamot, cedrat essence, vetiver, patchouli and cedar wood offset by robust muskiness.

As the cologne fades and meshes with his natural scent, it gets even better – soft and enticing with bold, sensual undertones. The frosted flask bottle with leather imprinted cap is chic and sophisticated plus it comes with a handy travel essentials bag – perfect for his busy schedule. The 100 ml bottle retails for $95.00 and both fragrances are available at Hudson’s Bay, Nordstrom and select Shoppers Drug Mart locations.

Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfum and Jimmy Choo Man

Jimmy Choo has been highly influential in the ever changing world of style, high fashion and modern trends. The brand sets the bar luxuriously high when it comes to artistic shoes and lavish fabrics and the designer has channelled the same aura of glamour, charm and sexuality into delightful fragrances for men and women.

Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfume has potent central notes of fresh tiger orchid fused with exotic base notes of toffee that blend sensually with Indonesian patchouli. The combination of juicy fruit and warm, woodiness adds complexity to embody female empowerment, refined confidence and mysterious desire.

The fragrance is packaged in an exotic pink snakeskin box that is synonymous with Jimmy Choo’s deluxe expression of the brand’s desirability. The round amber bottle is adorned with delicate light reflecting facets influenced by antiques and beautiful Murano glass; much like the pieces I saw while strolling the rustic streets of Venice.

This perfume is very concentrated and although it fades beautifully one spritz is usually all it takes. Instead of applying it directly to skin I spray it in the air around me or on my clothing which helps dilute the scent and lighten the potency. The notes are very classic and the aroma reminds me of the rich fragrances my mother use to wear years ago combined with fresh new scents that are popular today. The harmonious blend of antique and modern flare creates unique sophistication and elegance.

During the day I opt for lighter, fresher scents so this may be a bit too heavy for sunny summer days but for evenings out this fragrance is powerful and enthralling! The 60 ml bottle retails for $75.00 and 100 ml is $88.00.

Although I usually feature a wide array of scents for women since we love our perfumes let’s not forget our handsome counterparts! Jimmy Choo for Man embodies sensuality, rock n roll and expressions of confidence, masculinity and a rebellious sense of humour. The bottle resembles a sleek flask with minimal detailing and sharp clean lines.

Ladies, if you want your man to smell irresistible, powerful and swoon-worthy this cologne has it all! To me it epitomizes high, fashion, confidence and mature vivaciousness with an alluring muskiness. Jimmy Choo Man is fresh and crisp with a calming infusion of lavender and the subtle sweetness of mandarin essence, honeydew melon pineapple leaf and geranium. The base notes blend wonderfully with warm amber aromas and alluring patchouli.

My husband loves this strong, bold fragrance for both special occasion and everyday wear, the 50 ml bottle retails for $68.00 and 100 ml is $88.00.

Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfume makes a fantastic Mother's day gift and both fragrances can be purchased at Hudson’s Bay, Shoppers Drug Mart, Murale and Nordstrom.
