Hi

I've read a lot of good reviews about Davidoff Cool Water Game and was wandering if it smelled similar to the original Cool Water as I'm not really a big fan of this.

The impression I got afer reading the Basenotes reviews that is that Cool Water Game is a more fresh/citrus scent but then some reviews mention a similarity to the original Cool Water so Im a bit confused.

I'd be grateful for any additional info as I dont plan on buying Game if it smells anything like Cool Water.

Thanks for your help

It's like Cherry Coke or Vanilla Coke. Different, but both have Coca Cola as the base.

Game will smell enough like CW to reconsider your purchase.

They smell NOTHING alike.

Game opens smelling of apples, pears, and watermelon. Mid is patchouli with a touch of the fruit from the top. Base is plain ass patchouli (and a rather synthetic smell at that). Think Kenneth Cole Reaction, but with patchouli in the base rather than musk and sandalwood.

I like the original Cool Water, but didn't care for Game. I liked Cool Water Deep even less.

I loved Deep! Smelled absolutely nothing like the regular though. Can't comment on Game, but from what I read, it's not the same thing at all. Davidoff is just using the Cool Water name to sell new totally different stuff - kind of like with Kouros vs Body Kouros.

Exactly. These two are not flankers, but totally different releases.
