FAQ
What is Eau Fraiche in perfume?
In the world of fragrances, 'Eau Fraiche' refers to a light and refreshing version of a scent, typically containing a lower concentration of aromatic compounds than other types of perfumes like Eau de Parfum or Eau de Toilette. Hence, Eau Fraiche becomes the best option for people who wish to wear a light scent that provides comfort even in the summer, and in informal places.
What does Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden smell like?
Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden envelops you in a serene blend of crisp and clean notes. The first notes are the sparkling citrus and the perfumer's head of the aromatic yerba's the refreshing scent coming from these two notes. It is the smell of a flower garden, and the flowers are soft green in color, with the green notes that are barely perceptible, the freshness of a tree in spring complemented by the surplus of gentle woods and a hint of musk at the base. The overall smell is charming and simple, designed to make your daily life more chic.
What is the difference between Eau Fraiche and Eau de Parfum?
The primary difference between Eau Fraiche and Eau de Parfum lies in their fragrance concentration. Eau Fraiche is a mix that accommodates a minor part of aromatic oils (usually 1 to 3 percent) which leads to the creation of a more informal and sometimes unassertive scent. Conversely, Eau de Parfum, in that respect, is a large container with a higher concentration, which the majority, from 15 to 20 percent, of the scents in it make it a stronger and more long-lasting scent. On the other hand, Eau Fraiche is the best choice for people who want to have a light and refreshing effect, while Eau de Parfum is the ideal for those who desire a much stronger and enveloping fragrance choice.
What perfume did Kate Middleton wear?
Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, famously chose to wear White Gardenia Petals by Illuminum on her wedding day. Although Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden is not the perfume that she uses often, it is related in some way to this, the style of simplicity and elegance, thus it is the perfect pick for girls who like the classic style of the Duchess.
What are the notes in Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden?
Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden features a refreshing scent profile. It starts off with bracing citrus notes and a combination of green herbs. The heart presents a perfect mixture of soft flowers such as jasmine and lily supporting a scent of the soft floral. The wood and musk that make up the base are very fast and light, which is a nice way for the fragrance to end.
Is Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden suitable for all occasions?
Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden's light and fresh nature makes it versatile enough to wear for various occasions. Even it's so subtle that it goes along with the sophisticated touch of any place, for instance, office, casual brunch, or garden party without distracting the spectators.
Can Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden be worn by both men and women?
While Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden is marketed primarily towards women, its fresh, clean fragrance makes it a unisex choice. The perfume can be used and liked by anyone who loves light and energizing fragrances, regardless of gender.
How long does Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden last?
Due to its lower concentration of aromatic oils, Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden typically lasts from two to four hours, depending on individual skin chemistry and environmental factors. In some cases where a stronger presence of the scent is required, the user can consider reapplying it throughout the day.
Where do you apply Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden?
For optimal fragrance projection and longevity, apply Eau Fraiche by Elizabeth Arden to pulse points such as the wrists, behind the ears, and the base of the neck. These warm places are ideal for the aforementioned effect since they help to the natural diffusion of scent throughout the day. Eventhough you wearing it lightly, it can be applied by a light mist to your clothes to have a more subtle aroma.

Fresh and clean, a little sexy
Nice scent but doesn't last long
Not What I Expected
I was expecting the old nostalgic fragrance I wore to death in the 1970's. This formula is not it.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Nice scent but doesn't last long
The smell is not the same as it was years ago. It now has more of an alcohol smell initially and then citrus notes. It used to have a bit of a baby powder soft undertone as well that isn't there. It's still nice but likely won't purchase it again. The scent doesn't last very long either.

Fresh and clean, a little sexy
I have Eau Fraiche to thank for discovering FragranceX, as this site turned up when I did a web search using the perfume name. This is a light airy fragrance with a just-out-of-the-shower, girl-next-door freshness, great for daytime use especially in hot weather. It has a cooling quality to it and while light, usually holds subtly but well. I'm VERY happy to have found this and the other long-lost perfumes also here on this site. The prices are excellent value even after currency conversion. I'll be back (and back, and back!)
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
