Cool Water Freeze Me

Yes, I'm posting a second review of CWFM because when I tried to edit my 1st one and I bumped the mouse and lost my entire addendum, so here goes... I finally got this a couple months ago and did not have to pay an arm and a leg for it(thanks to Midtown Perfumes). This scent predates the current "Ice" craze and should have probably been released with its own name as opposed to a CW flanker... It starts with a wonderful citrus mix that is bitter, sweet and sour all at once and if I had to descibe it in one word it would be 'Bright'. Mint is present from the start and grows into a greenfest of sharp juniper, fresh basil and sage. Geranium is the only flower in this and it tends to smooth the greens somewhat. This citrusy-green (as opposed to green citrus)phase lasts for quite a while and is very invigorating and sharp. Before it completely dries down it takes a slight sour turn which may not work with some people's chemistry but on my skin it is very nice. The finish is sweet, light amber with some incense and an almost translucent, well-done (synthetic) musk. This is indeed cooling, but does not "freeze" as much as say, Arctical does. Freeze Me is great for summer but would be a good choice for cooler days also... Sillage: good Longevity: great Overall: 3.5/5 I have yet to try putting this in the freezer and spraying it on my skin to cool down on a hot day because that's just silly-any scent kept in the freezer and applied to the skin would be cooling, duh! This is not as sweet as Game and not as complex(?) as Deep but it is a good scent and I'm glad I got it...

I happened to try this at a drugstore perfume counter and on first whiff it was exterely citric, green and sharp...and I thought I have enough of all these families. O ye of little patience- I recently smelled this on someone a couple hours after they sprayed it on and the normally *yawn* amber, musk, incense combo BLEW ME AWAY! Just when you thought if I see another CW flanker I'll puke one comes along and impresses you with a new combo of old notes. Freeze ME Davidoff!

Love it. It is a cool mint vibe with a bit of floral. Projection is good it lasts decent amount of time.

Not my favorite of the Cool Water collection. It smells great, but it did not last for me. I bought it to take on vacation, let's just say it was like I wasn't even wearing perfume. If I wear something, I want it to last more than 2 hours. I admit, the smell is nice, vibrant and a summer scent. Very fruity on me. It almost smelled like I had been making lemonade all morning. I guess it just didn't work with my chemistry.

This fragrance is actually quite nice, i wouldn't use it as a serious night out/in but for casual outdoors or on a hot day at work it works well enough to keep you fresh all day long. The longitivity on this is insane! If i put some on in the morning (say 3 sprays) i can still smell it as im going to bed at night
