At Best for Him Studios, we recently tried Glacier Extreme Eau de Toilette, and I can confidently say it’s one of the most invigorating and unforgettable men’s fragrances we’ve worn in a long time. From the moment it is sprayed on, you are transported to a world of rugged landscapes and powerful emotions — it truly feels like an expedition in a bottle.
The opening is sharp and refreshing, with the black lemon and ginger immediately making an impression. It’s citrusy, but with an icy edge — very fitting for the “glacier” theme. There’s a zing to it that energizes me right away, almost like a blast of mountain air. The basil adds a subtle herbal twist that balances everything beautifully.
As the scent evolves, it gets more mysterious and masculine. The Black Stone Accord is unlike anything casual — cool, earthy, and mineral-like. It perfectly captures that feeling of being deep in a dark glacier cave, where the air is crisp and every sense is heightened. The lavandin and juniper give the heart of the fragrance an aromatic freshness that feels clean yet bold — it’s not overpowering, but it definitely makes a statement.
The dry down is where Glacier Extreme really shines. The vetiver and cedarwood come through with a smoky, woody finish that lasts for hours. There’s a quiet strength in these base notes, echoing the grounded, confident energy of a man who faces life head-on. It’s rugged, refined, and subtly daring.
How long does Glacier Extreme last?
This scent is ideal for cooler seasons or evening wear, though we’ve worn it during the day and still felt its power. The longevity is impressive — one can get at least 7–8 hours of wear, with a noticeable but not overwhelming sillage.
Our verdict for the Glacier by Oriflame
In short, Glacier Extreme is an adventure in scent form that will boost your inner confidence. If you’re looking for a unique, masculine fragrance that stands out from the crowd, this one is a must-try.
