After procrastinating purchase for years as the incense and tuberose notes were scaring me, I finally succumbed and will never look back. I LOVE Revlon Fire & Ice. It is The Perfect Amber I have wanted and needed forever and this blend is so well done I can detect no incense or tuberose. I adore incense-y fumes but have enough to embalm all of us so I needed some other stuff. (I'm kidding. I wanted it, but 'want' is 'need' when you're a fragrance junkie.)
This is beautifully basic amber with a perfectly balanced sweet and sour (sweet orange), rich, deep, powerful, intense, warm , smells and wears high end for the price; a must-have staple perfectly as/is or for layering. This is a high quality blend that is long lasting and gratifying. Strong but not too sweet, sour, synthetic, screechy, none of that business we try to steer clear of. As for the comparisons to Cherry Vanille, I had that synthetic mess of stuff and I disagree anything like that is happening at all with Fire & Ice. Very well balanced and lovely, not too heavy on any of the notes. It is strong for the first few minutes so spray carefully. I like 'em big and rich but the cologne spray packs a wallop. It will dry down pretty but this is not one I recommend spraying liberally right before greeting people.
Fire & Ice is a classic beauty in every way and The Perfect Fixer for any fragrance that may feel too cold, dry, unisex. This blend is the stabilizer that will take those fragrances up (or down) a notch should I decide at the last minute what I sprayed earlier is not sweet or warm enough for my mood. Last night, I spritzed a favorite unisex frag which started feeling a bit more dry and woodsy than I was in the mood for. A pop of this knocked the woods right into place and added the perfect touch of sweetness without clashing with my original scent one bit.
This is gorgeous for a steal of a price. As all cooks need ingredients in our kitchen to tamp down and round out recipes, all perfumistas need an excellent amber to do the same for our fragrances. Here it is. Oh my goodness retro Revlon, when you got them right, you got them perfect. Get. Thissss. Ssssstuff. You 'need' it. ;) You know you do.
