Cool Water Woman (1996)
by Davidoff

This perfume tops my 'most hated scents' list. Such a disappointment when I loved the male version so much.

This was a horrid blast of sourness and nose burning acidity. It beats me as to how people can wear this. When the horrible top notes mellow all I get is a boring, predictable water scent.

Nothing exciting about this what-so-ever.

First I have to say... I don’t think that the women’s version of Cool Water is as good as the men’s. Cool Water Woman is a pleasant fragrance; it’s primarily fruity, ozonic, and synthetic. The fruitiness that I get comes mainly from the black current and melon, and these are what mainly contribute to the synthetics as far as I’m concerned. As to the synthetics: they’re related to Cool Water for Men which is the first synthetic smelling fragrance that I actually enjoyed. Cool Water for women has the same type of enjoyable synthetic feel except that there is too much fruitiness for me. I find it primarily linear on my skin, and the drydown gradually loses its attractive syntheticness and grows cheaper smelling. At first it has rather a strong sillage but it quickly settles down to a normal intensity. It has excellent longevity. All things considered, it’s an attractive fragrance.

This Doesn't last on my skin unfortunuly

quince lily of the vally
the con is it make my nose burn
but the pros to this is the color
the name that represents a great perfume
for the beach it brings out the vibe
of the deep ocean.Swmining with the fishes.

It's a floral aquatic, soft and a very refreshing scent. It starts off with tangy citrus with the hint of fruitiness in it which is very refreshing as the citrus are not like a blast but they just make you feel fresh. It is like as if you are given a chilled glass of freshly squeezed lemon drink in a hot afternoon.

The heart settles in aquatic floral way just like as if various flowers have been just cut and have been placed in a huge glass bowl of fresh chilled water. I like this stage very much.

The dry down has a prominent note of vanilla with a hint of musk and blended with soft sandalwood. I don't detect any vetiver however, it must have been added to give some prominence to musk, sandal and vanilla.

Suitable for all occasions, anytime but should be worn in the day. As the citrus smell refreshing in the day time.

I remember enjoying Davidoff Cool Water on an ex, and mentioned I liked it, so was bought the female version for a Christmas present one year. However, the female version is nothing like the male version. I do LIKE the smell, it's very inoffensive and conjures up imagery of oceans, seas, water etc hence its name. It is a NICE smell, but nothing earth-shattering. On a sporty person, I think this would smell nice, especially after a shower. I won't be buying again though as it doesn't suit my personality.

For boring and generic women who are afraid to stand out. There's such an offensive note in this, it makes me physically sick....yuck!
