You also mention that if it IS an Ifrit, then I would have experienced a heat instead of a coolness in that event that I described. Query: is this assumption based on Lore or from some personal first or second hand experience of your own?
I can kind of relate to what you're saying. I don't know anything about myths..and lore and all that..but I do know that they've used Ifrit as a summon in the Final Fantasy RPG games..and he's a fire being...so I see how yo could say he had to of experienced heat. But you're also right in saying that the myths could be wrong. That is why they're myths right?

It isn't so much as not finding it interesting. I explained which aspects I found non-connected to the topic and you cleared up why you added those 2 writings. So let's move onto the "Ifrit".

This is a logical assumption based upon available lore and personal experience. As some already know, I've been working with various types of beings for several years now (can nearly count the years on one hand though). Ranging from elementals, to Goetic Spirits, Light beings etc.
From all the myths and lore it is known that Ifrit is a being that deals with fire. When I think about this and apply it to other beings of fire that I worked with I always felt a warm to very hot sensation, earth also gives me a calm soothing feeling in the chest etc. If you experienced a cold sensation than:
1. it could not have been Ifrit
2. the myths and lore are incorrect and Ifrit is not associated to the Fire Realm in order to explain the cold sensations that you have.
This is why I asked: After thinking back, is there perhaps another being that you could associated with your experience?
