Like freshly squeezed orange& mandarin juice in the garden of sunshine.an instant mood lifter.it is neither particularly sophisticated nor powerful, but it is exceedingly pleasant.clean, bright,unisex,simple but it seems a bit too expensive for it's simplicity.easy to wear fragrance for the hot weather,while in winter it can bring memories of a hot,joyful summer.
The mandarin/bergamot note that opens blends so well with the fresh herbs so that neither is too sharp or overpowering at any given time.it is the ginger that grounds the mandarin orange and keeping it from becoming too cloying and sweet.it provides a subtly spicy,green,and earthy quality. on my skin the ginger doesn't stay strong for long.on clothes,the ginger notes stays much longer.after a couple of hours,it turns into something very soothing and subtle.the citrus is present the whole time during the dry down with the smooth woody notes.

An extended eau de cologne (as is the case with most from Atelier Cologne), here it is mandarin with a bit of other citrus notes, paired with a very noticeable ginger note. I loved the ginger note in this composition, bringing to mind Dior Homme Sport 2008 (though ginger is even more prominent here). This phase is naturally short lived (about one or two hours), and the dry-down is just a mish-mash of woody notes with a bit of musk, generic and not memorable at all. Adequate sillage and duration, considering the style of composition.

Really harsh, from start to finish. Smells similar to Lemon Pledge, which itself is made with real lemons, so there you go. Glaciers had enough force to carve out the Great Lakes and the fjords of Norway, and Mandarine Glaciale has enough brute force to induce an immediate headache in my brain. Do your olfactory bulb a favor and try Goutal's Eau D'Hadrien instead; of if you must from this brand, Pompelmo Paradise.
I like this one, though not as much as some of Atelier's other citrus scents. There's a surprising earthiness to itit's more savory than sweet. Refreshing.
A very masculine citrus smell. A blue scent that should be bright orange. It's not melting well. It feels like smelling three different fragrances together. A fresh citrus, a soft amber, and a crisp, stereotypical aqua male fragrance. Some could like it. Even many, if everyone finds a category they like in this. Performances are good

Eating 3-day-old tangerines in a kitchen where someone has left the freezer open and someone else is heating up some curry in the microwave. Strange.
