Davidoff Cool Water Eau de Toilette is a very refreshing and clean scent that is perfect for the summer. The price is affordable.
Cool water opens with a fresh burst of sweet aquatic notes and lavender, with sharp green touches of mint and rosemary in the background. As it settles, a heart of synthetic florals comprised of neroli, jasmine and geranium begin to combine somewhat harshly with the mint. The dry down is where the more masculine notes of sandalwood, oakmoss and cedar begin to shine through alongside the aquatic green notes. Objectively speaking, Cool Water is not a great fragrance due to its synthetic and low quality ingredients. However for the price, I think it’s pleasant enough for most people and gets the job done. For me though, this scent is very special. Cool Water is so nostalgic to me for some reason, I must have smelled it as a child but can’t place where. This fragrance takes me to a point in time which I can’t quite place, but is kind and comforting nonetheless. I think this scent is a timeless classic and will always be a part of my collection.
Don't really class this as an aquatic as such depite it's freshness and name...for me it could just as easily be called 'green meadow' or something like that. Cool Water is really nice, popular and a classic for a reason...it's a triumph of modern, masculine fragrance. Comparsions to Green Irish Tweed are entirely valid and again I'm no snob, if it truly was on par I would be happy to slate the more expensive product. However, the Creed really does have more depth and the nuances change throughout wearing it. That's not to say this is not a great cologne because it is... and it's a bargain too!
