There is also a slight presence of galbanum, and that is one of few small details reminding us of Allyl Amyl Glycolate. The original Cool Water is also remarkable for the use of natural materials; lavender and geranium are among them. There are some details that unite Cool Water Intense with Boucheron Jaïpur Homme, Kenzo Peace, YSL Body Kouros, Laura Biagiotti Roma Uomo and especially with its recent flanker Roma Uomo Eau de Toilette Cedro, which is the first flanker created by Annick herself, if I get it right. I really can’t understand that such an excellent perfumer can create such a bad smelling fragrance with a mass appealing purpose.

Davidoff Cool Water Homme Eau De Toilette Spray, 125ml

In my opinion, the brand made a smart move: Cool Water Intense is the best thing that has happened to Davidoff since 1988. It has become an expected strategy acquired by Davidoff among others, to play on the popularity of the original invention, while at the same time trying to push aside its multiple copies.

It is the fragrance that drew a line in men's fragrances, dividing all fragrances into before and after Cool Water. Always remember that you as a consumer and only you have the power to dictate in which way will the market go, by demanding better and more consistent quality of the products presented.

DAVIDOFF Cool Water Man Deodorant Spray 150ml

Annick Menardo tried I think to enhance the mandarin aroma with a very heavy Ambroxan and other fixatives. This felt like it needed either some kind of florals to amplify the suntan lotion effect, or a woody element to give it some much needed gravitas -- but you'll get none of that here. But eventually, the material has lost its avant garde perception, especially taking into consideration its popularity.Cool Water Intense, this time for real, opens a new chapter of Cool Water, being created literally from scratch. Home Cosmetics offers a huge range of fragrance and cosmetics and has over 25 years of combined experience within the industry. The thing is everyone copied the CW dna so you can smell it all over the place and it smells generic, the Intense smells generic without even being copied. Salicylates create a logical bridge from a fougere to the note of coconut water – there is a very neat, functional lactonic accord.
