Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Man Ice EDT
A blast of icy citrus and crisp apple, Man Ice is the ultimate hot weather pick - invigorating, ultra-fresh, and never cloying. Effortlessly stylish, though fleeting, it’s a prime grab-and-go summer scent for men.

Our Verdict - Malaysian Frozen EDP
A budget echo of Jimmy Choo Man Ice's icy citrus-woody freshness. Malaysian Frozen nails the zesty bergamot-and-mandarin opening over a clean cedar-ambroxan base, but like the original its projection and wear time run modest - here even more so.
