Cool Water Davidoff for women

REFRESHING AWAKENING SCENT

Ocean in a bottle. Smells beautiful.

This smelled nice in the bottle, but when I sprayed it on my skin the fresh, fruity part was overpowered by something like a peppery smell? It made me feel sick and I had to wash it off.

To me there is is a nice clean scent some where in this perfume however, the heavy musk/pepper like smell overpowers it all and drives me insane so I don't ever use it. After a couple of hours the harsh musky pepper like smell dies down to something more bearable, but the initial scent is too rough for my liking, which is a shame because everything hidden underneath that horrible musk pepper like smell, smelled wonderful.

Yuck! It's everything I dislike in one bottle. Acrid soapy, Sharp Citrus and Aquatic notes, some of the same notes as D&G Light Blue and some woodsy sandalwood at the base. Not my cup of tea.

A summer must!

I got this as a gift. Wouldn't choose it myself but I did finish the bottle. It's cool and fresh. I'm more of a warm/fruity person myself.

It's nice tho! but not for me

I finally tested this one today. I don't have much to say about it, but I can say I found another love/hate relationship.
The bottle is an unoriginal aquatic piece. It fits the fragrance simply but nicely.
My problem with this fragrance is the overbearing peppery smell and feel of it. It hid the rest of the fragrance underneath it like a shroud of pins and needles. (I'm not a fan of peppery smells at all.) After a couple of hours, it did die down to something more bearable, but the initial scent is too rough for my liking, which is a shame because everything hidden underneath it smelled wonderful.
The lasting power is about 5 hours, which isn't bad.
Like I said, not too much to say about it. I didn't like it, unfortunately. 3/10.

It smells great on my skin. Citrus notes at first, sweet and fresh later and a warm fruity smell in the end which seems to want to remember me: Hey, I'm still here by your side, you are not alone... One of my favourites!

When first applied, Cool Water is cologne like. As the scent lingers it becomes clean and refreshing. I can definitely detect the pineapple notes. This is a classic scent that is great for everyday wear.

I remember wearing this when I was in grade 9...lol I am now 24...I think I will repurchase...I wasn't in love with this scent but I do remember I got complimented on how nice I smelt from a senior...so I guess guys love this

Ahhh, another one of my favorite 90's perfumes; well, it used to be one of my faves. I was a teen when I wore this and it made me feel so fresh and energetic. It was one of my summer go-to staples; I just loved the aquatic aroma! Even though I can't stand it now, it still reminds me of all those summer days spent lounging lakeside with my best friend. I would bring it with me in my little "beach" tote and after we had slathered ourselves with tanning lotion, we would spritz on Cool Water. Hey, you gotta smell good for the guys! Lol Great summer scent with wonderful lasting power. Too bad I don't like it anymore. :(

It smells fresh at the start and then it smells like raspberries, roses and musk. I don't know about people who've said that it doesn't last because I've had it on for 2 days now!
I LOVE THAT PERFUME!

i love this perfume. always will

It was my first perfume love. I was mad about it. It was perfect perfume for me. So fresh, clean and sophisticated. And really true to its name. I used couple of bottles of it. Unfortunately the love is gone now and it is no longer special for me. The ozone note is now unbearable. Shame. Or maybe not. I have had few perfume loves since that time.

Very popular ten years ago. I think it´s vile, can´t stand it. Makes my stomach turn. The same with the Men´s version. (Why?)

I dont like it AT ALL... I bought it, and gave it away, couldnt stand it... very strong on my skin, not fresh at all!

This one is a very feel-good fragrance for me, because I grew up smelling the perfume on my sister and the cologne on her husband. It reminds me of the two people I love most in the world, so it always makes me smile.

My first perfume ever! Clean, soft, aquatic. I was hooked to it during high school but now it doesn't mean anything to me. When I smell it it brings good memories to me but I think I couldn't use it now as an adult woman.

I thought I would get this. I look similar to the girl in the picture not that I think I look like a model but sometimes when something is similar to your apperance or style you think it will suit you and amplify your style or reflect your personality more. I like the beach and watery themes, I am sporty and casual with long black hair and blue eyes this might be exactly my style. WRONG!!

It is cheap to buy and is everywhere and comes in a good range of sizes and you can always get the sets if you wnt to layer it or just use the gel or cream etc.

It lasts quite well but does need respraying to make it stronger. I think as far as aquatic scents go it is original and very destinct because my sister in law wears it and it is very noticeable I know what it is as soon as I smell it. It has a slight aniseed touch and it is not too sweet once it settles.

On me however, it smells like rotten fruit or when you walk past an allyway in the city and you smell that sickly sweet rubbish smell from the restaurants dumping stuff in the bins. It really is that bad on me. I love the whole concept but I can never wear this perfume so it goes to my sister in law who smells divine with this.

If it suits your skin it is worth the purchase obviously you have to like this type of fragrance I like the bottle too. I think a guy could wear this as well. Good for any age really young and older people. It is one to test before buying as I found out the hard way!:)

This is a water splash scent. It does remind me of water/rain. I love it for a time but it isn't fruity or floral enough for me. It does seem more like a smell for a room or bathroom rather than a person. It's still nice though, especially for someone who doesn't like strong scents. It does wear quickly but it can last a good three hrs or so. Overall it's an ok scent. Its not for me any longer, mainly because a woman I couldn't stand used to wear it.

I had this perfume but got to use it only four times because my son broke it. It smells very acuatic. My doctor loved it.

Awful, disgusting, horrible perfume.

[12/14/2011]

This one doesn't last very long on me. I was looking for something fresh for work but it didn't even make it until lunch hour. Also there seemed to be more citrus in this...it's more fruity floral that floral aquatic to me.

Aquatic, fresh, citrusy and not sweet, smells like bath... Good for sports or to hang out somewhere for not too long. Not good for night or work - it evaporates VERY quickly. As the fellas said, it's a summer fragrance.

i was expecting to like this one but it was a huge dissapointment, its just so bitter and cloying on my skin it didnt work with my body chemistry! smell like sunripped fruits iuuuuuu :( a waste of money! try it before u buy it, the mens version is a nice one.

Absolutly disgusting fragrance! It smells like toilet spray-YUK! I got it from my friend for birthday and gave it to my mom but she told it´s awfull so we threw it away.

this parfum smells fresh and a litlle litlle litlle bit sweet, it was a gift from my mom and i like it !

I think this perfume smells absolutely amazing. Beware however, if you have it on, you're going to have several men who will want to keep SMELLING you. (is that too freaky?)

I smelled an open package of this from halfway across the store, and HAD to find which box smelled so heavenly! Cool water is and probably always will be my favorite smell in the whole world. When I followed my nose and found Cool Water Woman, I thought "no wonder!" An ex co-worker of mine used to wear the version for men, and I think I told him every day how amazing it smelled. Everybody's nose is different, but for me Cool Water is perfection.

This reminds me of a waterfall in the middle of a forest near my "home" in the Caribbean. The sweet smells from the flowers near by, and from the minerals, the power of the water rushing in and slashing the rocks. As you look around, you see all the beautiful floating lilies floating around, and hope to find women bathing in the big, wide and shallow pond underneath...It almost makes me forget how much I actually fear the water and can't swim, even after living right in front of it half my life.

Despite the sweetness, this fragrance presents to me as purely male. It reminds me of the smell after a day long rainstorm. That fresh, almost surreal smell that makes you feel anew. Sade's "Paradise" played in the background. My uncle drinking Johnnie Walker Black Label while lounging on a hammock in the porch. A Victorian oil lap right beside him after the electricity went out...Is there any way to have it? Life is a vacation. 24/7.

I like it more for men than the separate men's version. I find that one too medicinal. If you are a lady and this works, great. In my opinion though, this is a really great Men's fragrance. Just try it boys!

I had high expectations for this one thanks to all the great reviews it has got! I finally found a store that has it and honestly speaking I was disappointed!

I had been expecting a nice fresh citrus opening but it wasn't there. Instead the kinda mushy sweet melon note was prominent with some pineapple and lotus. It was sweeter and blunter than I thought, compared to the crisp citrus I had expected. But don't take me wrong! The citruses were there, just a lot quieter than I had wished.

Cool water is something like CK one summer 2006 that was my first real love in perfumes. It's a fresh scent in a bit softer way instead of being a citrus BOOM!

I think I've personally just passed the phase so long ago that Cool water is not impressing me anymore. I think I would have liked it back then if I had run into it though.

got a sniff of this today, and at first it is actually quite strong, salty and oily-ish. Fresh it is, yes but these salty notes don't appeal to me much. Thankfully in about an hour it dries down to a very fresh clean floral. i haven't made up my mind yet whether I love it or not, but it's smelling better by the minute :D

I adore this fragarance, for those who like clean scents that last for a long time.

i was addicted to this in high school ..this scent takes you straight to the beach on a clear day .. its very fresh and clean .. its somewhat unisex

بویه جالب و خوشمزه ای داره ولی متاسفانه شبیه اش زیاد شده.

At first i loved this perfume.But after somedays it started to irritate my nose and now it gives me headache.I really want to love it.all my friends do.It feels so spicy and citrusy to me.I like more fruity, floral and chocolaty scents.also love fresh scents like light blue or moschino i love love.im ok with those citrus scents.Its just not for me.

Edit:my friend bought it after testing my perfume.she loved it at first.now she hates it.i guess its a nice scent to smell on others but its unbearable to use daily.It gives a clot in my throat.

I love cool water! Its scent speaks to my soul. To some part of me from a past life that lived on the beach in the sun and in the water. It makes me feel youthful and full of positive energy. Its sexy and cool.
love it!!

The last time I had this perfume I immediately fell in love with its bottle than followed by its fragrance.

The whether in Philippines is tropical so it very much suites it and it compliments with my body scent.

While it settles it still gives a sweet yet clean scent throughout the day.

I recommend it for casual days and could be worn in work.

It's so amazing to me how fragrance reacts on different individuals. It's even more amazing how it reacts differently to your skin, at differing times in your life.

I used to wear this back in elementary school, but I could not for the life of me remember how it smelled. I sprayed it on my wrist and I immediately got a cologne, unisex scent.

It stayed for a few minutes.

Just as I was ready to write it off as "too masculine," it dried down to it's final scent.

Aquatic Watermelon. No. Really. No musk. No citrus, just water and watermelon is what I got and it smells DIVINE. Very simple, yet carefree. Like a scent that one would wear to the pool or the mall when trying out clothes.

I'm definitely buying a bottle.

simply the best....!

I'm keen on fresh fragrances, but this one is not my kind. I cannot put the finger on what I dislike, perhaps it's a rather unfortunate accord between the citruses and the florals, or a rather mild note in the dry down. At any rate, not worth buying, IMO.

Update: I've tried it again, this time waiting to see how it evolves on my skin, and I must say the drydown is harmonious and nice. Only if you have patience till the harsher top-notes have dried away.

Light, crisp, fresh. Good for summer. Not long lasting. Good casual fragrance.

I recieved this as a present some years ago and 'sorry' but I hated it; I have to say that it is cool actually, but for same reason it made feel cold like hay fever or sinusitis, the only ingredient I noticed was jazmin, very strong by the way. So it is a no-no fragrance to me or anyone with allergies.

i love this perfume it smells exciting.but it doesnt long lasting :( thats why i dont want to buy it...

I loved this perfume. When someone I worked with wore it I asked her if she was wearing CK Eternity because that is how it smelled on her. She obviously said no it was Coolwater. I love the name and the packaging and the whole concept I think it has been very well done even if you don't like the perfume. When I was given a set with the cream and shower gel from Dad when he went to the duty free I thought I was so lucky. Well that's where my luck finished. This smells on me like rotten fruit. I love the perfume but I cannot pull it off. My sister in law lives in it and it smells really nice on her. Oh well those of you who can wear it and love are very lucky because it is easy to get and not too expensive and smells nice when it works with your chemistry.

Do you get this rusty smell out of it?????? I do. I wonder which of the notes it comes from. It can get boring to my nose sometimes.

It is good for our weather here in Philippines, it is a soothing scent good for casual occasions such as: work or in my case at a university... the price is about PHP3,490 1.5 FL Oz. My friends tell me the scent is somewhat a hint of a man's perfume so you might want to spray the right amount that it does not overpower someone. But so far for me it is really good

Very sexy, not your usual floral booring rubbish..timeless..

Summer, late nights, beach

Quality

Splasssshhhh....when it's very hot outside, a touch of this edT or perfumed deo, and it's like a jump in the fresh water!

I love Davidoff's Cool Water for men, so I thought I would love the women's version too. However, I was very wrong. I highly dislike this scent. It really isn't my taste. It's a strong, sharp floral that smells like flowers blooming (pollen) & a hint of some green florals/aquatic notes. The "blooming" scent is just too overwhelming for me. It's very intense. Smells like poppies in my opinion. Upon the drydown it's a lot less intense, but I still dislike it. I don't really consider it aqautic.. It's extremely floral with just a hint of something green in there.

a scent for 30 minutes :/

This fragrance gives me nothing. On my skin it gets boring. Smells fresh, but there is to little sweetness and to much citrus in this scent.

Aqua de Gio is a better version of this. I tried to give the bottle I have away to someone I thought would like it and even she (who uses apple scented vent freheners in her car) declined. I now use it as a car freshening spray in mine ;)

A watermelon lollipop. I like this scent. Fresh, cheerful, a lot of spring and bees on it haha.
I won't buy it again but I will consider it as a gift.

Smells of watermelon! I don't like a perfume when I can smell the sweet watermelon-ey touch, it makes it childish... I still liked it though because this one is not too bad.

My mother uses this. It smells simply clean.

I find this scent to be uncomplicated, refreshing, sweet and nothing special.

It smells like wet melons, melon is the strongest thing here, with a sweet aquatic feel.

:)

IT REMEMBER ME WHEN I WAS AT HIGH SCHOOL AND A FRIEND OF MINE HAS IT, WHEN I SMELL WAS LIKE SWIMING IN A HOT DAY, HAHAHA SO I GET ONE AND I USED TO LOVE IT, IS FRESH BUT NOW I PREFER SOMETHING THAT SCREAMS HEYYY BOYS IM A WOMAN ..... SO I HAVE TO WEAR AN OTHER FRAGANCE:)

Ok. I am not a young garl, but never got round to testing this parf till this morning.

The story follows:

One of our builders (our house is under renovation...) the other day cleverly commented on the scent I was wearing and was convinced that it is Cool water Davidoff actually it was Eau Jeune Double Je though.
So I had to sniff Davidoff and yes the young guy was not off on the track.
Very similar, but the Davidoff slightly weaker and last for shorter on my skin.
So in conclusion if you liked Double Je (discontinued) you will like Davidoff Cool water as well.
Good day!

I understand why this fragrance has been so popular,I wore it for a few years in my early twenties and it made me feel rather sexy when I did. I smell it now and it does remind me of that sexiness but in a masculine way! Kind of like wearing your boyfriends shirt in the weekend. I could'nt wear it now but it has a fond place in my fragrance history.

I love the bottle. It looks like a very posh raindrop. I wish the fragrance worked with my chemistry better, but on my skin, it smells like a sauna, with a slightly sour mix of salt, sweat, and watered-down herbs and fruits. I'm not knocking the perfume itself. It may be delightful on some people, and maybe I just bring out all the discordant notes in this one! I'll stick with my beloved rich florals, chypres, and orientals, and leave this one to those who can wear it well.

I used to love this but I put some on after not wearing it for a while and it made me gag. I don't know if it's gone bad, or if my taste has just changed.

oh where to begin, I saw this today on clearance at Kohl's for fantastic deal, and thought I would sample it first. Glad I did. This smells like a man's colonge on me. It gagged me the whole way home as I was getting strong wiffs of it coming off my hand while driving. This one is a definate pass for me!

Aquatic and refreshing. I used to abuse the stuff in the Summer when I was in high school. Now, I prefer more true salt-based ocean scents to this one.

When I entered the dorms in my freshman year of college, our welcome kit had a little sample tube of Davidoff's Cool Water for Women. I loved the name, I loved the packaging, but I didn't love the perfume! It was a piercing, synthetic, almost fruity aquatic. And it gave me a headache.

My roommate liked it--I let her have it. It smelled great on her--a lovely dark, fresh blue, nothing synthetic. I just don't know what it is with me and aquatics--maybe chlorine is the only aquatic I can wear successfully! (I love to swim, and chlorine goes well with my body chemistry!)

Very clean and refreshing. However it does not smell synthetic at all. It doesn't smell citrisy or minty, not does it smell like cucumber or watermelon. It's just very very pure freshness. I will probably not wear this alone though, because it would feel like you're wearing foundation or powder but forgot to put blush on your cheeks.

I loved it at first but it started to give me nauseous. It has a clean fresh smell. But not the one for me, may be doesnt work with my skin chemistry.

One of the very few fragrances that make me nauseous.

clean fresh aquatic scent that borders on unisex. This is very simular to Escada's Into the Blue and BBW Dancing Waters. Clean and fresh, a little zesty, perfect for hot summer day. Lasting power however stinks. It dissappears in less than an hour which is a downner for me. Not sure if i would repurchase because of that. If i found a scent like this that lasts, it would be HG for me

Takes me back to high school when all of the girls smelled like this and CKOne and Vanilla Fields. I don't wear this that often but i really enjoy it when I do. Opens very cleanly - a lot of fresh fruits but i mostly detect pineapple and melons and orchid. Tends to linger there for quite some time before drying down to this vanilla and Snuggle smell. It just so happens that I like vanilla and the Snuggle Bear so I don't mind it one bit. Fresh, long lasting - perfect for those summer days at the beach or just a casual picnic. I would not recommend this to anyone looking for something sexy or something that stands out. But for those that wants something fresh and crisp and vibrant, try Cool Water Woman.

This was the go to fragrance for summer when I was a teen! Received it as a gift and loved the fresh aquatic notes. Today, I prefer the more refined Acqua Di Gioia by Giorgio Armani.

goes very well with the hot humid summer. sharp but not aggresive. very nice.

I''m totally into sweet, spicy, fragrances. This is NOT one of them, however, it's very fresh, crisp, and doesn't bother the senses. With summer all over us, 'heavier' perfumes may seems overwhelming, so this one is a perfect option for a contemporary young woman.

This is really very like the mens version. If you like that then its fine. Really, you will smell like you have been a dirty stop out with some guy who wore a lot of Cool Water and you didn't manage to have a shower before leaving his place in the morning. Not an effect I want to even try and carry off.

This was my signature fragrance as a teenager. I loved it back then. I don't really know whether it is still my cup of tea, but I want to repurchase it solely to bring back memories. :)

I love how crisp and fresh this is. I don't own it but it's my sisters perfume of the moment and I've stolen a few squirts. I'll have to get it for myself.
I sell Avon, not as a business but just buy for myself and a few friends. I recently bought a bottle of Avon Windscape as by the look of the bottle design and name it seemed like it would be a copy. And it is very similar, but it doesn't have any staying power.

I understand that this was a hit at it's time. But nowadays there are many perfume that smell like this. cheap ones, unfortunately..

I can't see a reason for wearing this. It smells clean, thats all. Better save your money and take a shower instead.

I like this one, but I love the male version .
This one is nice but ordianry, not unique. by the way, it has been launched almost long time ago so I dont expect it to be trendy, it was a great perfume at that time.

I honestly think that this one is one of the most feminine, womanly youthful scents out there. I love this one on women. It makes them smell so innocent, happy and refreshing. Almost like they don’t have a hidden agenda…cough…cough. Great perfume.

A very nice spring/summer scent. this fragrance makes me think of the beach, the smell of the salt water in the air and the warm send. This is a wonderful scent.

This is a wonderful classic scent, perfect for daytime wearing, preferably summer.
I feel clean and comfortable when I wear it so I like to use it for the office and when I have to travel.
Despite is fresh, you can notice that you are wearing it for hours.
Definitely one of my " I love" scents.

By the way, I have a 30 ml totally new bottle for swapping! Contact me if you are interested!.

Very feminine and fresh
I almost get a pink vibe from the juice inside this blue bottle. Nice and innocent

To me, the name says it all. From first application to the tail end of the lingering base notes, this perfume gives off a real "cool" vibe, and reminds you of those rainey days spent going about the town. Not at all offensive, never gets heavy. Not a very "sexy" scent either.... just, "cool", like you're not trying too hard to impress anyone. It's like a statement enhancer instead of being an actual statement. And oh, oh how I love the aquatic notes... like summer rain in a garden. Fantastic perfume.

I tested this the other day. The start is like Adidas Moves for men, which I love, but already have. It's sporty, pleasant, fresh, like Irish Spring or something like that. Very likeable, but more common to men's sports fragrances. Personally, I'm ok wearing something like that, but some women might want to smell more feminine (but hey, no one says you can't layer it with something floral, which could be nice!). But this stage doesn't last forever. It changes after maybe a half hour or so to a more watery-green scent. like fresh forest rain. Not what I was looking for at this time, but someone else might be:) It's nice. Neutral. Fresh, but I wouldn't say that it's cool/cold. but it is watery, in that green way. I think that anyone could pull this off. it's great for everyday wear. the bottle is cute too! I'm not disappointed with it, but it's too bad that it's not what I am looking for right now. It is so hard to find a fragrance that matches the one you have in your imagination. But it is lovely all the same, it lasted all day long on one spray, I could smell it all the way from about noon until bedtime, and that can be hard to find in a fragrance so light. It's light, watery-fresh, but it stays put. Worth the money in that way.

This and Cool Water Wave are my staples for working out! No, it's not Dior or Cartier, but i think it's a classic among aquatic fragrances.

I love this scent. reminds me of the late 90's and highschool. I secretly used to wear this . smelled so unique and clean. still whip it out for nostalgic purposes. dont dismiss this because of its age. You must remember that fragrance is a game of evolution and science. When this launched it was so unique and nothing on the market smelled anything like it. Sure that was almost twenty years ago but in 96' the trend was different . Yes its common now..but still a fantastic work of art. This fragrance is legendary.

This fragrance is nothing special.
After a few hours becomes a masculine fragrance.
Is fine for everyday use and casual style.
Just smell pineapple, lemon and some other woody note.
Nothing memorable, just another aquatic fragrance more, wanting to meet many notes that say nothing.

My signature scent when I was 15, loved this so much. Now when I smell it, it brings back all the memories :)

NOTHING feminine about this perfume. Will not make any man want to cozy up to you. This perfume is not feminine enough to be called a perfume but not masculine enough to be called a cologne. Wouldnt recommend this AT ALL.

I wanna add something
I recognized a strange notice..

after you wear it for +-4 hours you feel "hungry",, it seems that it opens your apatite!!! ت

I personally wearing it,, YES it can be a masculine fragrance and I LIKE it :)

This is a very popular fragrance and I'm normally very fond of aquatic scents so I bought 15 ml of this one. I'm glad I didn't buy a larger quantity

I like the sillage, when I smell it on other women. Very fresh, cool and aquatic - maybe a bit masculine, but all in all nice.

When I tested this perfume on my own skin all I got was a mix between scouring powder and toothpaste. I didn't detect any floral or fruity notes, just a very artificial scent.

Test before buying!

In 3 words: AQUATIC - COOL - ARTIFICIAL

It’s not bad but nothing special just smells like a sports perfume and it’s a bit synthetic, seems like a more expensive slightly warm and sweeter version of Adidas woman. It’s also very masculine. No Win

Liked this smell when I was 15. It bursts out cool, lemony and melon rich in the beginning but then fades into a more unisex smell. I have to say that it is a teenager perfume for my opinion. ( Watched Titanic under Coolwaters influence... the smell appears mysteriously whenever I see Titanic related stuff)

i love this. cool, lemony, aquatic. a great summer scent. very refreshing. i can't wait to have it again. i can't agree that i find it synthetic, i actually find it very clean and clear.

As a big fan of aquatic, fresh fragrances, I must say that this one was a huge disappointment.
I totaly agree with others reviews, Cool Water is very syntethic and I can't find the "cool" anywhere.

I love the smell of Cool Water but I have to say it doesn't last long on me. Plus any fragrances with some kind of citrus notes gives off a room spray or a hair spray after scent in my personal opinion.
I dont wear this fragrances no more but use it as my room freshener and it has become my favorite room scent.

It's not just you, candymarie. Very synthetic to my nose.

Strange, but the women's version is ten times more masculine than the men's version! One of my friends is a Cool Water fanatic and it smells slightly sweet and very nautical on him. I decided to give the female version a shot and was very disappointed. I agree with other reviewers that it's very synthetic and has a lasting chemical trail to it. The citrus is overpowering and even suffocating. Too bad they couldn't figure out a decent feminine counterpart to a casual classic.

Is it just me, or does it smell very synthetic? My first reaction was that it is something you might use to freshen a gym locker. I had smelled Davidoff for Men a long time ago in a department store, and remembered liking it a lot, so I felt a blind-buy of the women's version would be a safe bet. I was wrong.

This has been my Christmas present for myself. It is not a nice scent, too much of a character for that,but it is somehow intriguing. I wouldn´t say it is fresh either but it has presence and last for ever. I am wearing it now and I can smell it after 10 hours. It says " Here I am would you like to go jogging?" .Still that much energy!- If you need a push to start your day, wear this and you will be speeding!

nothing special only memories of the sea. i gets worse as time passes. i dislike the smell of it on my clothes. cheap but useful smell on holidays.

To me, this is a timeless fresh classic. Every time I sense this fragrance, my mind teleports back to those breezy hot nights on the beach with my ex.

i bought this perfume for my friends to see in college and they absolutley loved it !
a friend of mine actually wanted to snatch it away but i was too strong to let it go !!

cool water is a lovly light fruity perfume perfect for summer days :D

10/10

no need to exaggerate this perfume..its very simple and clean..kinda adidas perfumes..

I've really got into fresh fragrances the last couple of years. This does smell very 'blue' , aquatic, fresh and clean and it's unique.

The reason I know it is unique is because my gf's ex used to wear it, and every few months I spray it on a strip and say 'what do you think of this' hoping she'll say "ooh that's nice, what's that?" and so I can buy it then, but she always recognises it, dammit.

It's quite long lasting too, and it's a really pretty smell which you can wear anywhere/ anytime really. I wore Eden to work today (big mistake, luckily no-one else in the office is in)

This is the only one that I truly dislike. I hate it! In my opinion it smells bad on myself and others.. There's something in it that makes my nose sting :/

I received a sample of cool water from System_d and I thank her for this that I am here to write a review of this.
Without seeing the pyramid of notes, what I can sum up about it is, it's absolutely floral aquatic. Very refreshing, sweet and soft fragrance.

After spraying it on, the sparkle is citrusy and a bit fruity but on the whole in the top notes, it's more citrus and fruits are just saying hello to make you feel their lovely presence.

The heart makes me feel so pleasant with its florals which is somewhat like as if various freshly cut flowers have been placed in a huge glass bowl of fresh spring water which gives a very refreshing feel to the nose.

What I can detect in the base is a prominent presence of vanilla with the hint of musk and the echo of citrus too.

My over all opinion about cool water is it's suitable for all occasions. A daytime scent which will make you feel fresh and happy. Absolutely unoffensive in the office. Although it's for females but I will rate it as unisex due to it's citrus in the top.

It reminds me of Gucci- Envy, another impossible parfum.
It`s the second time I received Cool Water and I hope my desapointment wasn`t too obvious on my face.
There`s nothing sexy about this one, just like wearing large pants and old t-short.

As Davidoff Cool Water is a true classic, I gave it a try two years ago. I expected something really fresh and fruity, but it turned out to be a green citrus scent. I don't mean that's not fresh, but I'm not really into citrus.

Two years later I smelled a beautiful feminine scent on a friend of mine. She told me it was Davidoff Cool Water, but it was hard for me to believe that. Was it really possible that a sharp (as I found it back then) and lemonish scent was way softer and fruitier on a different skin?

I decided to give it a second chance, and went back to the store. When I tried it a few years ago, I tried it on a piece of paper. So now I wanted to test it on my skin.

What I smelled was amazing. I literally smelled summer, sea and beach. A crispy scent, in which the lemon was soft, though hardly noticable. Excellent for every occasion.
A clean fragrance for a woman who enjoys every moment of life. And that was the way I felt.
I bought a little bottle of it, and I got a lot of compliments on it. But after a little while I got a bit bored of it. Always the raspberry, peach and pineapple. It reminded me a bit of a Replay scent.
So I simply stopped using it. Just when the bottle was empty, I was at the point where the scent of Cool Water made me sick.

I still smell it sometimes on that friend of mine, and it reminds me of those 'good old days', but I won't buy it again.
It was fun for a while, but I'm looking for a bit of a 'deeper' scent with more layers.

used to like it until i broke the bottle in my fav bag :)

I got a mini in this to test out and its OK.

I like it but it's a little headache inducing, although it really is aquatic smelling! It very fresh. I will probably only use this every once in a while, its very strong, but still good for summer!

I don't understand the many comments that say this fragrance is 'masculine' smelling, I don't think a man will be able to pull off this scent at all, that's why I particularly like it, many clean/crisp scents for women smell kind of unisex, but this does not....To my nose, this is a crisp, clean, feminine, fruity-aquatic scent. It's fruity-sweet, icy and refreshing...like ice blended tutti fruity frappe made from fresh fruits (no extra sugar added), especially melon, citruses and berries. The floral notes are very subtle and linger in the background and the fruits are not syrupy either...good for those who think Escada summer frags are too sugary but still want something fruity. My favorite aquatic scent and I absolutely love the bottle...the thing is, it is too light for me and longevity is not so great on my skin, still it is superior to other fruity-florals or aquatic scents out there. Right now, I'd rather spend my $$$ on something with better lasting power and silage...but ofcourse, I would be more than happy to receive it as a gift, so I can use it when I need something sweet and refreshing to cool me down on a hot day. Highly recommended for warm/hot weather, especially if you will be frolicking at some beach, this is the kind of fragrance that blooms in hot, humid weather.

I remember when this first came out and I was so in love with it. It was so refreshing, so cool, so fresh! Now, I find it a bit too masculine and sticky sweet for my tastes (I lean towards orientals). I also moved from South Florida to the Northeast, so maybe not being around the beach caused me to lose interest in this scent. But I think this is truly representative of a floral aquatic fragrance and should be tried by those who want to explore floral aquatics.

Another one with lots of reviews so not much I can add.
I get alot of pinapple, a slight juniper sharpness (hawthorne?) then a sweet musk drydown. Very subdued and close to the skin.
Does this come in a stronger concentration? The EDT is just way too light for me.
It's a little slice of a tropical breeze while it lasts but reapplying could get to be a chore.

My signature scent was for many years. It is fresh, aquatic, flowery and a light scent, not an overwhelming one. It is feminine and beautiful. The bottle and the name really compliment the scent very well. My only big problem with it nowadays that it does not seem to last on me. I guess the older I get, I just feel the need to wear something more pronounced and longer lasting scent. However I am looking for something great like this amazing scent.

This smelled horrible on me. I gave it to a friend that was thrilled to death. This is a perfect example of how fragrances smell to and on different people.

Awesomeness praised this as an A+ aquatic. I cannot wear aquatics so that accounts for the extreme negative odor my chemistry does with this Queen of Aquatics.

Had it, and liked it long time ago, i got tired of it and gave it away, when i smell this i go back to the late 90´s...
Water fragrances where so popular then... and now??

I have a chance to try it so long time ago... very bright,fresh ,airly and very lush tropical fruity all the high pitch of note like a symphony band bang altogether all the time of wearing. very delight and refreshing. it's very nice for lively girly casual in summer beach ^^.

On me this fragrance smells like not the most pleasant mix of pineapple with watermelon.
I don't like it at all.

It smells like sea water - freshly, tenderly and softly. Great for spending time on a beach:)

My review of this perfume will be quite short and simple..

Despite all of the notes listed this perfume is dominated by one!

MELON!! In your face melon coated in sugar...with a slight aquatic feel.

Such a waste of a gorgeous list of notes.

i absolutely loooooove this fragrance!!
it smells fresh and sweet at the same time.and the staying power is superb.

This fragrance is screaming "summer vacation" !!

It's a beautiful, happy, "outdoorsy" scent.
It is quite linear , which isn't necessarily a bad thing - you know what you get from the first notes.

Unfortunately, I find it a bit overwhelming, I had to wash my wrist and I can't get rid of the smell - so it is longlasting too :p

If you love sweet fruity scents, this fragrance is for you.

if you're expecting, clean, fresh aquatic scent - you're damn right! It's suitable for wearing everyday and perfect for summer. Don't put your expectations too high though - you're getting a nice fragrance for a reasonable price. the scent is just like as if you've put on fresh clothes from the laundry. I had this fragrance in my teens and I still use it occasionally. It reminds me of Body Shop Aqua lily, but I still prefer Cool water =)

tropical fruits in water....refreshing perfume.i would wear this to the beach when it's hot outside or on a vacation to the beach.it is also sweet in a fresh way and masculine.

This is a great big bottle of...whatever. I am so sick of water scents!

I really can not stand the smell of Cool Water !!!
this one smells really bad...fresh ???-sweet, fruity- flowery -salty-...a mix of everything...like a big mess...:.(((

I really do not have the skin for this- I cannot imagine how it can be aquatic and fresh on other skins, on me unfortunately it's just a fake pinneapple start that develops into heavy, sickly sweet and stays that way until I have to wash it off, repeatedly

i smelled this one on my niece the other day and it was heavenly. After a few days i tried it myself and it was awful. boring plain sugar. i rushed home and washed this horrible scent but it stayed om my skin in spite of it. So it's all a matter of body chemistry.

It's official. I cannot wear this perfume. I have tried it many many times and I really like the smell and wish I coudl wear it but it gives me headaches. Every time.

I guess I'm resigned to sniffing the bottle from time to time and hoping someone who wears it walks my way so I can enjoy this lovely fresh seaside scent.

finally trying this fragrance once again for the spring/summer. my coworkers love it! didnt say a word to them and they enjoy how fresh and pleasent i smell.

LOVE IT!!! Something about smelling a little alcoholic/soapy/detergent-like just doesnt bother me at all. Honestly its not as bad as some people describe it to be. Its meant to be a clean, fresh aquatic smell.. thats why people compare it with detergents and alcohol..some ppl dont like it coz for fragrances they naturally prefer something more feminine and deep.. However for those who love something more fresh and less feminine, this is great.. Its soooo comforting and cooling during hot and humid weathers - especially where i come from. Men love it, much much more than women do..coz i think they just love the smell in general - clean, fresh,aftershave kinda smell.. Doesnt matter if its on women or men, the smell just appeals to them regardless. Women have much more range of scents to choose from - floral, sweet, citrusy - probably thats why they are less fond of it. You probably wanna try this out first before buying it. Coz u'll either love it or hate it the 1st time u take a sniff... Give it a try.. if the scent appeals to u then its worth buying...;)

I got it from my fiance at time when it was the craze- liked it then, but never bought a second bottle- the only fine note I can recall is blackcurrant, the memory of the rest repulses me in a way comparable to RALPH by Ralph Lauren. Never agai.

A cool and pleasant scent that always changed my mood when spritzed on my skin. The temperature seems to have changed too, lol!

Got it .on me lotus flower that become a kinda incense smell.then becomes water lily with some peach and black currant.may add that i. ll put raspberry from yves rocher with cw.to add more fruit and acid note.to balance the water lily.after a couple hrs becomes soft and as the name say.cool

all time favorite perfume. fresh, kinda citrus, and long lasting. I've used this since I was in high school. although recently I'm trying other perfume, but I guess after looking around I will back to this fragrance.

should be fresh but gives me a headache - like 'shake n vac' or some other household cleaning product. Horrid and unsexy

This Doesn't last on my skin unfortunuly
but i love the ingredients from this
perfume lotus melon citruses fruits
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.

My mom gave me this perfume for my birthday, at that moment I couldn´t decide me if I liked it or not, so I used it for a time and people said to me that I smelled very good. For me this fragance smells good but it isn´t nothing extraordinary.

Cool Water Woman is clean and fresh, a wonderful perfume for summer when you don't want something heavy, and for winter when you want a reminder of the joys of summer berries and the seaside. All of the notes in this perfume are beautifully blended and delicate, and they transition seamlessly.

Bright lemon gives way to the sweet, fresh smell of honeydew, then the even sweeter smell of pineapple and honey. None of those fruity smells are loud or strong, though; it is an aquatic after all, so all of the notes have a clear water tone.

The florals at the heart are barely there, but I can smell delicate rose, like the barest whiff of a rosebush on the breeze.

I absolutely love peach notes, so when those warmed on my skin, I was delighted. Then the trace of blackberries came and went. In the end, this perfume lives up to it's name- I smell cool, clean water, as well as a bit of musk and a vague hint of cut grass.

Lovely, fresh and cheerful. I only have a mini of this EdT, but I know I'll be buying the full bottle when my mini is used up.

By the by, I have no youthful nostalgic associations with this perfume; I was in my mid-twenties and expecting my first child when this perfume was released. I'm wearing it for the first time today.

This was my very first perfume ever! I received it as a gift from my boyfriend in 11th grade so I will always associate it with youth and my school years :) it was a huge head-turner from high school through to college, always fetched nice compliments from both guys and girlfriends.

I still bring this lovely, refreshing scent out on those hot summer days! Smells totally delish on my skin and lasts for most of the day without having to re-spray.

It's really very nice smelt when you wearing it you fill yourself in a pure,blue ocean

cool, clean and refreshing! it reminds me of the beach and whenever I wear this scent I feel like I just stepped out of the bath tub

I had it...it is a fresh perfume, it is great for summer, but I don't like fresh perfumes. So I will never purchase it again because it is not my style.

i like CWD's first citrus smell with alcohl. but soon it disapear. very very soon. then it become artificial and boring smell. i don't know what notes the bad smell is. but i hate it.

I received this perfume as a gift a couple of years ago but I could not use it.The smell just made me wanna throw up...it was just too much for me :(

At first smell it smells strongly of alcohol, then you realise it's the citrus scents. Makes me think of men's aftershave at first smell. Like washing up liquid. Maybe its the musk or sandalwood that's ruining it for me, I don't know but it doesn't agree with my nose.

This is a love or hate scent as Angel/Thierry Mugler is for the oriental gourmand family. It smells quite aquatic and modern and has a dominant cucumber note. I did approaches to this scent many times but never achieved to purchase a bottle. I think I miss at least a hint of warmth in this scent, it is just too cool. As an aquatic scent I prefer the melon-scented Escape of Calvin Klein or the juicy Be delicious of DKNY.

Not that it wasn't a nice scent but to be fair, I was pregnant with my first daughter and the scent made me nauseous.

oh well, smells really cheap, cheap cheap to me. a real turn-off on a woman. not feminine, not nice, nothing.just synthetic. sorry. prefer DG the one, or chanel allure for women by far.

I had it years ago, and I bought it because of the advertising and the color of the bottle. I am an ocean lover, and somewhat I got tricked into believing it would remind me of water and vacation. It didn't. It smelled almost masculine, no spice, no sex, no flowers, no fruits, no aquatic scents, nothing it it. It lacked the smallest dose of hormones and passion. A perfume with a distinct deodorant smell, I mean no offense to those who like it, but terrible with my skin chemistry.

I used this for a few months many years ago and it never failed to get me nice comments, especially from men. Now I have to understand why. No one else wore it around me, so it was new and different. Then it became so common around and I moved to other things.
I also wore Dolcevita which is a much more complex, refined, yummy and elegant scent IMO. Nobody liked it like Cool Water.
My tastes in fragrance changed a lot since then. I liked Cool Woman, but right now I can't understand all the hype and why men liked it more than my fave ones.
Everyone says it is "fresh" but it's not descriptive. It's not piercing fresh, not so cold citrusy. It has lots of floral notes and for me this is an over-floral and quite tender. I don't like extremely fresh citrusy scents because they hit my head. Cool Water was very easy to wear, light, not offensive, girlish.
I'm impressed at the least of notes as it seems to be like a very un-complex fragrance, nice but nothing especially refined.

My mother used to have this scent back then. I would occasionally steal it and spray it on me. It's very citrusy on me in a good way. The perfume depicted "cool water" perfectly. It smells cool and refreshing, good for hot humid days.. Very casual and laid back.
But now that i can afford to have my own perfume, I wont add this to my collection because this secnt is so captivating, that it became common specially in the tropics. I don't want to smell like everybody else.

My sister has this and I think it is awful. It smells very masculine to me and there is really nothingsexy about it. I guess if I had to say something nice about it, it would be that it last a really long time on the skin but I don't know why anyone would want it to. Not my cup of tea.

Cool Water is a perfume that I carefully avoided and had no interest to test it out. I expected out of this fruity watery scent and I was right. It's at the beginning like some many aquatic men cologne. It must be huge popularity of this one spawned many horridous stuff for years.
Not really my cup of tea, I'll say that this fragrance is done well, notes blend in a pretty fresh water like way. Not overly fresh, more moderate. Easy to like, easy to wear. Could be in possession of a girl that takes part in basketball team or whatever. (I don't exercise at all, so often aquatics and clean aura of a girl in sneakers is not for me) Or she can be otaku and go cosplay.
(More into my way, but I don't do cosplay, because I am funny character in a flesh xD) Anyway I didn't find anything really annoying about this perfume, I could stand it, because it hasn't got that large dose of Cedar in it. Top notes has men cologne like combo, but it fades away fast enough and is not bothering me. I imagine this could be quite nice to wear in sultry weather when you cannot stand many other fragrances you usually love. Cedar loaded aquatics often smell yucky, but this one isn't one of them. It has fruity and subtle floral notes. Only one moment.. did they write it's sensual and men like this very much... I won't understand that.. ^^
The more times I try it, I start to like it.. strange.. I smell pineapple clearly in top notes, melon and water lily too.

Cool Water was an iconic fragrance during my childhood which has lately lost its charm.

Cool Water will always have some degree of significance in my heart, as it was one of the first perfumes I have ever experienced. I think it was the distinctive bottle that attracted me first - it does indeed look like a glass bottle of mineral water.

The actual fragrance came across to me as breezy, fresh and sharp, however, I have always been put off by the cloying sweetness that lingers for a long time.
I personally believe that the fruity notes were over-exposed, therefore Cool Water somehow lost its aquatic qualities.

Great to wear during scorching hot summers, but I wouldnt wear this for any other season.

I think it's the leader of this aquatic floral fragrance. It's fresh, clean and long lasting too. Must have for summer time. No other aquatic is like it...
I was just wondering which of the notes gives this sea breeze impression?

this was my very first perfume way back high school, i super love this perfume and it became my signature perfume, every time i walked around the campus, they can smell this fragrance even if im meters away hehehe, i used this for almost 4 years and became an avid fan of it... truly a classic. Men loves this perfume on me, it drives them crazy.

On test paper: watery, aquatic, fresh, pure, little bitter, citrus like scent.

On my skin: mostly fruity (no citrus) and floral, musky sensation, slightly sweet, energizing aaand yes! fresh!

Like them both, one on the paper more but it seems I cant have that one.

This is a casual and comfortable perfume, suitable for everyday wear. Lasting power is average, spring&summer are perfect chances to use it.

I think most people will compliment you while wearing this one. So what if its an old, and everyone has it - knows it perfume? Its the quality that really matters.

i owned this a long time before and now have decided to give it another shot as a summer fragrance. to me it is still a unique smell but everyone knows the cool water smell so well i probably wont recieve compliments like when it first came out. still a good oldie but goodie summer scent for me

I wear it bit I find it is boring and very common. Does not last! Pretty smell, good for young women. I will not buy it in future because is not a good investment.

This one is beautiful. It was my favourite scent for some years. Matches my skin perfectly. Although it's not my fav anymore (for personal reasons), I respect it.

This a great every day perfume, it is a clean, fresh and delicious smell, which is proper for the hot summer days, as the smell doesn't get thick or sticky - it stays yummy and sweet, but with lemon freshness at the same time. It reminds me of the smell of lemon fresh juice with little spices and a lot of honey - wonderful summer cocktail! I think it is a perfect office and leisure time fragrance - it is a non-intruding smell, that wouldn't irritate anyone around you - it is so natural and pleasant!

I like clean scents but this smell like some kind of mens aftershave gone wrong on me. Thank goodness I only bought a mini.

I love aquatic perfume. It makes u always fresh and have a carribbean feeling 4 confident and elegent woman 4 everyday wearing. It keep my magination alive with the picture of ocean waves and freshing cocktails.
It is office and everyday use perfume. Its top note is little sharp but the medile and base note is very soft and has the effect of spring and worm summer on the beach

I like it :-)

It is relaxing scent, freshing..
when i smell is i can't to not think about
the fragrances like water and ocean.
I love it, and i want to by it again.

It was my signature fragrance for a few years back then when it was released. The very first sniff completely knocked my socks off and I used to buy big bottles one after another and truly enjoyed it for all occasions.
The morning dew freshness of this fragrance was always very comforting during long, hot summer.
Still is, even though I'm now into more mature scents, and i would not fall for it as I did back then but I like to remind myself those "Cool" days sometimes.

I don´t like it all. It is supposed to be cool and refreshing bur for me it is just sticky and sweet. I makes me sick smelling it.

It may not be out of this world original, but it's still a nice fragrance and worth checking out. It's a bit too sweet for summer though. It could get cloying very easily.

me again...
yihuy.....finally got time for shopping last night
and purchase cool water is on my first shopping list
i fell in love at first sniff
the smell is clean and fresh
i spray it before i went to the bed and when i woke up this morning the smell was still there
finally i found the scent which i was looking for
for quite sometime....

It's very light, very generic, but sometimes, that is just what I'm looking for. The top notes are ozonic and watery, and there is virtually no change throughout the wear, even with the strange basenotes such as mulberry. As your day goes on, it won't change scent at all. What you see (or smell) on first whiff is what you get.
I have a favorite fresh fragrance that I prefer over this (Adidas Moves) but this gets the job done. Its relatively inexpensive, but it's not very long lasting and you will need to reapply. You could never offend anyone wearing this, it's so ''barely there''. I think this is almost a classic now, so you will probably have people asking you 'Oh, are you wearing Cool Water?' instead of saying 'You smell good'.

since i live in Singapore with hot weather
i really need to purchase this as I need something refreshing,clean,energizing especially when i just finish my dance which really use up my energy.

This is the one I keep coming back to. I love love love it. I wish it was available as a perfume - maybe it would last longer.

At one point I felt like my entire school was wearing this scent, the guys the girls everyone! This scent is so fresh, cool, clean and just right! Its the perfect scent to wear on a beach outing. I also love the men's version. Smells stronger than the women's version. This fragrance sends me back to the first year of a new start in a new school.

This is one of my favourite fresh fragrances out there. It is perfect to wear on a hot sunny day or to the beach, has pleasant notes all the way and since it's very recognizable, you get a lot of compliments and "I love that one too"

i got it from my friend who went to philipine. not nice. its very strong n not soft although its so aquatic

If I had to chose only one scent, it would be this. I think it is the best out there that truly reminds me of the ocean and beach. I wore it for several years, I need to get me some again to add to my collection. I own about 20 different perfumes- I wear according to my mood. I am not a signature person, in ways, I wish I was, it would be less expensive.

Fresh, delicate and aquatic! I used to drive this one guy crazy with this stuff. I haven't worn any in a few years. Perhaps, it's time to purchase a new bottle.

I had a sample and it seems to be so fresh and delicate.
But on my skin... smells nice and fresh only at first, then I just don't like it at all.

To me this fragrance seems more like ice than water,but it is a great one!I will definetly purchase for this summer,as I need something refreshing,clear,energizing for hot days in our city.
When you wear this, you escape from the suffocating city,pollution and that artificial that's all around us.You imagine yourself lying on the beach,on a hot,but windy day and you're full of passion and energy you want to share with everyone.
A little bit citrusy,but not too much,a little bit soft,but not too much either - for this type of fragrance,I find it perfect!

This is a true classic along women. All women I know at least appreciate it and would like it in their collection. It is really common, but still it smells great and sexy when going to the beach or in holidays. I don't find it suitable for all occasions: you will smell cheap if you wear this with a chic little black dress if you know what I mean. Anyway, far better than the men's version which I can't stand.

I love this perfume, not only because it's fresh and light, but it also matches well with my mental character. Since I'm not very feminine, I feel like this perfume gives my personality a scent.

this one is very fresh but very mature not to sweet or girly it's very sophisticated and serious i just adore it

This scent is very marine and aquatic. Reminds me of the oceans and sea breeze..

too much citrus in here. it actually kind of reminds me of windex for some strange reason.

smells "soapy" and not very complex..i used to like it but now i cant stand it..guess i grew out of it :(

I enjoyed trying this fragrance (I have a mini), but found it kind of plain and light. I also wasn't particularly enamoured of the melon note. It would probably be a better scent to wear during warmer weather though. I will revisit it. Also, although I found this one to be a bit on the masculine side, I actually like my husband's version of Cool Water for men better. The women's version is OK, but I would probably not buy a full bottle of it.

Well, I'm wearing it now in summer, and still find this fragrance too light.

It was my favorite perfume but on the half of the bottle it bored me and i gave it to my sister. It is fresh, clean, light, a nice everyday scent.

I like this fragrance but to be perfectly honest I like this fragance on my BF even more. Cool, fresh and clean and fairly long lasting... Okay fragrance but not very feminine or sensual... overall just okay.

cool water, or beer, choose what you want because it is same!

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.

I wore this one but i have to say i got tired of it. I tried to wear it by summer and i found it too strong and somehow sickening when it really should be a summer fragrance. So i ended up using it in cooler days and it kinda worked out... i simply couldnt smell myself. I wont buy it again.

for me it is fresh ,aquatic and a bit acid...I prefer Into the blue...

This is the coolest cool scent I know!!! It's refreshing light and also remarkable sexy! An all time perfume for me!

This was one of my first perfumes, and I wore it for 2 years. Now it makes me sick. I don't know why, it's so powerful, and when I smell it on someone it is very overwhelming. My husband begs me to wear it. I want to like it, but it smells cheap now.

I like to smell it on others. So I've worn it today to try it out. At first I liked it, but after an hour - two it smelled too sweet on me. This lasted the whole day..
I guess I should try it in summer again.

this is my all time favorite.... i like the cool and aquatic scent. My man love's it

One of the biggest disappointments i ever had by perfumes!... It has a sour note what layers all the other under clean notes, you can't smell anything specially cool and fresh!...

I do not love this fragrance but it seems that men do! I have received more compliments on this than any other perfume I have worn. Including from a cop that gave me a speeding ticket, unfortunately he didn't like it enough to skip the ticket altogether.

Overall the melon, floral and aquatic stand out the most. If you like aquatic scents (or want to get men's attention) it's worth a shot.

Still the best of the citrus aquatics.There have been many since, but none as clean and blue as this.

I'm a total sucker for bottles, names, the whole perfume package. So on the very first truly hot day of summer I get an urge to try all the stuff in the blue bottles that have languished on a shelf in the colder months. None of these is a true favorite, but they are all wrapped up in " that summer feeling" [anyone know the Jonathan Richman song? I'm humming it now]--like the season's first bottle of crispy, dry, cool French rosé.

Like a nice Château de Trinquevel Tavel, Cool Water is fresh but strong. A little goes a long way, with more presence than Escada into the Blue (i think of it as Cool Water Woman Lite) or Alfred Sung's Shi--which I also like very much for that blue-bottle mood. Fruity but not at all sweet, unlike fruity scents that are more popular today. Not as floral as Eau d'Issey, not lemony like Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue. The melon note gives Cool Water a distinct character; it's the very note that may turn you off.

I find Cool Water Woman masculine or at least unisex--in a good way. IGood sillage, long-lasting--I love the simplicity of the bottle.

I don't find that Cool Water or any of the "aquatic' scents smells much like water (if water had a scent) but it evokes the idea of water in its coolness and freshness. To me if water had a scent it would be CK One.

This is one of my favorite early summer fragrances, and then by mid-August, no matter how hot the weather, I'm ready for a heavy-hitting perfume, one that complements those rich red wines, the Crozes-Hermitage, the St.Joseph, the Gigndas.

It is a very good fragrance. Very fresh and sharp. I like it very much. I use to have it, but I stopped because it became very popular in my country and also I smelled some cheap imitations of 'cool water' around and I got very pissed off

I have just bought a bottle... I took a shower this afternoon and sprayed it twice... It is hot today in my country...I was in the mall.. saw it and bought it...My sister wore it about ten years ago .. I think... so... since it is sooo famous... I wanted to give it a try...well...nice opening...mostly floral, fresh, sharp.... not the kind of perfume I usually wear ( sweet, floral, vainilla) but suitable for a summer afternoon...nice base notes too...more flowers start to appear ten minutes later... jasmine leads the base notes on my skin... and finally a soft smell of sandalwood stays with you the rest of the day......well! what can I say? I like it...not for a special occation or for an eeeelegant party... but good... fresh ...good vibes... energizing...

There's a certain note I don't like in this perfume, but I can't name it.
I don't like this fragrance, never did. It smells very sharp and like mens perfume.

I used to enjoy this scent, but now I can't stand it. It's realllly overpowering to my nose. I think I have determined that I am not a fan of lotus as I find that I don't like virtually any perfume with this note in it.

I had Cool Water when I was in the last year at a high school, it was my first 'proper' fragrance, and still had it for about two years after graduating. If I remember it right, at the begining it smells sweet and fresh,fruity, but together there is certain sharpness, similar to Klein's 'Escape'. Because this similarity on sharpness comes initialy to mind , I 've checked 'Escape' as well, and it happens to be in the same olfactive group, though word 'aquatic' can be misleading, and it is, in no way, light scent. Actualy I got very tired of wearing it because of its' sharpness. In my opinion, fragrances like this should be weared occasionaly and not everyday, becaue it is very easy to get tired of them.
I would like to try 'Cool Water' again, because I have many memmories of my late teen years associated with it

One of my favorites. Very memorable, distinctive, sharp and fresh. I love to change perfumes a lot,I get bored wearing the same, but this is one I'm going to stay faithful to.
For me, it represents young, extravagant and free women.

Classy one,it's clean and safe for every day use.I used to love it,but as time goes by,I had tried a lot of perfumes and found that there have more interesting scents out there.Now,I rarely pick this one.

A nice, clean and fresh scent that you'll love. I had a bottle and wore it once in a while but it's not one I reached for often. I grew tired of it after a while and gave mine away with still half left in the bottle.

I love the perfume, but it can only be worn occasionally as it overpowers easily and almost gets sickening if worn too often. The scent is unique, but i can't wear it very often at all.

This was my first perfume...but it's not my cup of tea any more...boring, very common and too sweet.

The first times that I smelled cool water, Im like it.. Certainly is a fresh fragrance, suitable to warms days... and catching of nice sensation and compliments... But, after while, this being boring and common scent... not for use often, or for long time. It's a bit sharp -gaudy too

I wore some time ago and I felt fresh, with a very distinctive smell ... But it has not stood the test of time, now they will never use and when the smell is suffocating me.

Smelled nice at first but then smelled awful afterwards.
Additional, ugly bottle.

not at all fresh nor aquatic. more floral and for mature women suited. i see my mom wearing it. could never like it. very common and too sweet and powdery.

I got many compliments on this one... I loved it for a very long time, and when accidentally the bottle was broken I nearly cried. Some time later I got myself another bottle, and it didnt seem like the same smell- my taste in perfume changed, and this one didnt seem so nice. I was also discouraged how popular it got- you could smell it every couple of meters walking down the street. However, it's a kind of classic now. Great choice for summer days!

You will fall in love of this perfume at the first smell, it is so fresh in a way that get you tho the sea, no matter where you are.

fragancia fresca y hermosa

One of the scents that started my love for fragrance, years later I still have a bottle but rarely wear it, perhaps I should start again

full of energy and life and i got many compliments while i'm wearing it but it's old one for that reason i stopped it :(

It's fresh and calming scent. Perfect for hot summer days but it's not very long lasting on me!
But i allways have a bottle on summer because it's an energising fragrance!

personally I think it goes for men to wear it too,, it is better than the male cool water but at the same time similar to it

I wear it when I want to be happy :)

Not my cup of tea. I've tried sniffing it many times to try to like it, but all it conjures up for me is "high school change rooms" - body odour mingled with cheap deodorant.

I used to love this when i was younger. I had a sniff at it this morning again at some person who walked past me. I dont like it anymore. I think it smells artificial and boring. Yuk.

Which is better, this one or Cool Water Wave? Well, which one is more fruity but sophisticated and special and lasts longer?

its light and tender, fresh still feminine, sweet but airy. love this one

This is the bomb. A true classic. Clean, fresh, invigorating. I would wear it every day. It has a refreshing high note and the base is just clean and light. Very nice!

this perfume semlls really nice and is both refreshing and sweet casual wear

Cool Water is a bit sweet and refreshing fragrance. All sweetness came of the watery fruits- melon, pineapple, peach,... in centre of the composition are tender white flowers and icy sea breeze. For me is perfect for hot, really hot summer days. Cool like it's name and long lasting one.

Can someone tell me if this perfume smells sweet at all or just refreshing? I reli want to buy a perfume that reminds me of water because i am a water person.

The new generation cool waters has never been the same. It is unique and always will be. I think it is a real all-time classic. I am feeling so comfortable and confident when I wear it.

Hey Trinigirl you live in the caribbean? I am a caribbean women too! I love all the scents that reminds me our beautiful weather and beaches!

It is the perfect scent for a Caribbean woman like me.

Crisp and clean... very nice scent. Perfect for spring and summer wear.

Cool Water Davidoff is one of those perfumes that gives pure energy. Cool and fresh, aquatic and tender. This fragrance leave cleen trace around me. For me, its suitable for all occassions, when I want to enjoy in crespy and softly notes around me.
