Cool Water Man Eau de Toilette $150 Value

When I think of a "blue" fragrance, this is the first that comes to mind. One of the first fragrances I wore on a daily basis in my high school and post high school days. But, as this fragrance dries down, it lands more "green". But I digress, on to the review. The opening as I mentioned starts with a fresh aquatic scent to my nose. And I can certainly pick up on the lavender. As this dries down around the 10 - 15 minutes mark, I start getting the mid and base notes coming in. The lavender fades, but the aquatics stay around. The sandlewood starts coming into play as well. I feel the dry down comes in fairly quickly on this fragrance. Which isn't a bad thing. It is smooth with the sandalwood, along with the oak moss and musk. I believe the first fragrance to introduce this fragrance profile was Creed's green Irish tweed. And I believe this was the first fragrance to copy that dna. I read somewhere that it was the same perfumer for both as well. Anyways, in closing this is a great classic fragrance that I would assume most men have put their nose on at some point in time. It is an easy to wear Mass appealing fragrance that any age group could pull off wearing.

Davidoff Cool Water remains the gold standard for fresh, aquatic fragrances. The scent opens with a sharp burst of sea water and mint, settling into a clean, masculine lavender finish. It is the ultimate "fresh out of the shower" aroma. ​The projection is moderate—noticeable without being overpowering—making it perfect for the office or casual daytime occasions during summer. Its packaging is iconic; the deep blue bottle reflects the oceanic vibe perfectly. While it performs well on most skin types, it truly shines when applied to pulse points, offering reliable longevity for an EDT. A must-have staple.
