Cool Water Parfum

Ok, so I got this in today and I'm halfway through my first wearing, or maybe not even halfway yet. Longevity seems to be above average, bordering on beastly right now but it might die off quickly. Upon application it is far more fruity than either Sauvage Eau de Toilette or Parfum and for some reason I don't get any resemblance to the Eau de Parfum, just like a slightly more fruity version of the edt in the opening and like a slightly less dark and resinous version of the Parfum in the mid and drydown. The best way I can describe this scent is if you take the creamy-woodiness of Bleu de Chanel Parfum's base, just the base, take Sauvage Parfum's mid and base with the darker resins stripped away, and add the opening of Sauvage edt, just a little more fruity and a little less metallic, then you'd have exactly this. It's nice and I'm enjoying it very much. I purchased it as I'm out of my Sauvage Parfum and I was hoping for a replacement for less money, and it could be possibly for many people, but the darker resins are what I enjoyed the most about it so I'm going to be getting another bottle of it asap. But with summer approaching fast and the fact that I've been needing to pick up some more fresher fragrances this definitely has a place in my collection. The vetiver is of much higher quality than I expected from such an inexpensive fragrance! However, I still prefer the Intense version myself. Yes it comes across more synthetic than this version but it projects much better, has that icy freshness yet also has a good bit of depth and sweetness along with it and that's what I look for in my warm weather oriented fragrances. I'd put this in the category of something like Ferragamo Acqua Essenzialle Blue, but swap the amber in it for vetiver. Scent: 8.25 out of 10 Longevity: 8.5 out of 10 Sillage: 8.5 out of 10 Uniqueness: 6.5 out of 10 Presentation: 8 out of 10 Overall: 8 out of 10 Edit: Upon further wearings this is actually pretty dang close to Sauvage Parfum in the opening, and as it dries down this becomes more airy and wood heavy due to the vetiver while Sauvage Parfum takes a creamier, more resinous direction. But you can definitely tell this is a Parfum concentration. It sits a little closer to the skin but longevity is great and sillage is very consistent throughout the day.

Between the original and the edp flanker, I feel like this may be my favorite one. Since this is a parfum concentration, it doesn't project as much as the edp, but I think it has similar longevity. All of the "20 minutes and it's gone" people are definitely going nose blind to it. For some reason thus one is harder to find compared to the edt and edp. I was able to pick up the 50ml bottle of this for $27 on Jomashop. Online retailers may be the only way to get it since I have never seen the parfum on any of the store shelves (at least here in the States). I easily get 8-10 hours longevity and a solid arms length projection for 2-3 hours. I typically wear this at work and for other daytime casual uses. If you have a very small and limited collection, this could easily be an evening out fragrance. For me, that's not the case since I have a larger collection with some higher quality options for the evening. That's not to say this is a low quality fragrance, but I'd say its a very solid mid range scent that is mass appealing and borrows from the Sauvage edt playback. If you like the Cool Water line like I do, this is worth picking up as a super versatile 3-4 season frag that you can safely wear for any casual to office level applications.

Yo, guys, let me introduce you to something that’s been flying under the radar—Davidoff Cool Water Pure Parfum. Released in 2021, it’s been criminally underrated, but trust me, this fragrance is a gem. If you’re into the iconic Cool Water, this one’s like its bolder, more refined cousin. The opening hits you with this smooth Amber and Vetiver combo—way smoother than the Intense version, which packs a coconut punch. This Pure Parfum is more balanced, with a clean, masculine vibe that feels fresh but still warm. As it dries down, it reveals a creamy sandalwood that’s just chef’s kiss—woody but with this sweet, almost gourmand twist. What’s great about this one is it doesn’t smack you with that intense spiciness the Intense version has. It’s easier on the nose, making it perfect for day-to-night wear. You can rock it at work, on a date, or just chilling with friends. Plus, it lasts—8+ hours of solid wear time, and the projection is strong for the first couple of hours. For around 30$ for 50 ml, it’s a steal. Seriously, if you’re over 20, this is the kind of fragrance that’ll make people stop and ask what you’re wearing. I’m giving this one a solid 9/10—it’s just that good.

Simple notes if u look at it but it's a good alternative. On first nosing of the opening, it's all too familiar. The reviews are pretty accurate except I hardly see anyone mentioned the fresh sweetness on top of the lemon-spicy pepper combo and quite a masculine woody base underneath it. Yes this is nothing close to the Og. The comparison with Sauvage is accurate But everyone missed out the sweetness and dna of Invictus here. This is clearly Invictus+Sauvage hybrid Alternative (just like wave is og and Sauvage) Just like Armaf Hunter Intense is the same. Too sweet to be that close and straight up Sauvage Alternative. But for a perfume that has a Davidoff brand and cost around 40usd it is perfect for younger men since the juice profile suits them just about anywhere everywhere one can wear. I'll say this is a 7-8/10 juice rating for both price and scent.

Its a pretty good fragrance. For me I pick up a Fresh(Shower Gel), Little bit of Citrus with a decent amount of wood in the first hour. And after about an hour when it dried down, I swear I smelled mint and I LOVED IT. THE MINTY FRESH Lemon Smell I was getting was amazing. I give it a 8/10 Smell. But a 7/10 since it only lasted about 3 to 4 hours MAX on my skin. Also different people may smell this fragrance differently. My mom said It smell Peppery and Masculine but I pick up 0 pepper for my nose. Its not a bad blind buy because its smells very Safe and Sorta Generic but not in a bad way. I used to think the OG CoolWater was a very versatile and safe cologne but CW Parfum is More Versatile and Safe. Edit: After repsraying. 30 Minutes into the wear I definitely smell the pepper!

I already own Cool water intense, Parfum was the next one I wanted to add to my collection Finally got 100ml bottle Well.... It is a trully great, modern, versatile blue fragrance. It is fresh, a bit sweet and has a very decent perfomance I do like it a lot I bought it whilst back at home in Warsaw as it is very hard to get in London Something worth mentioning I don't get any literally any resemblance to Sauvage. Not sure why people say it's like Sauvage. Definitely not like Sauvage Edt or Edp I also love the presentation and the juice colour. Btw if collectors were ever wondering this 100ml is the same size as 125ml OG cool water bottle. Overall I am very happy with it. Parfum well done 8/10

I cannot lie. It is one of the best aquatic perfumes out there and the perfect substitute or even competition to Versace Dylan Blue and Dior Sauvage. It smells like a mix of the 2 and the original cool water and just presents it in a perfect way. Best value for money in this segment and perfect for the summer as it has woody notes that aren't too offensive given a perfect masculine touch. Lasts for over 12 hours and projects for at least 3-4 hours filling up a small room. 100% recommend to blind buy if you like Versace Dylan Blue or Dior Sauvage and this is in your budget. Requires only 5-6 sprays to last more than 12-15 hours. Although it smells nothing like the original cool water. 9/10

Just received the tester of this one. and for a tropical country like India this blows the intense version out of the water. love it. it has a soapy feel of Prada's. love this one totally. awesome. and it projects a lot even after its 2 hours mark. i will update the review once i get to know this one better. EDIT = I have just ordered a back up bottle of this one. Don't know when this greedy company would reformulate this cheap and ultra long lasting juice. You hardly get long lasting perfumes for summer. This is it. Must in your collection if you live in a tropical country. Back up bottle worthy. Enough said. PS - I got tester for 25$ for 100 ml. Which is extremely cheap.

I would describe this as a more laid-back Sauvage. It doesn't smell exactly like Sauvage or luna rosa carbon I would it's about 80% similar to those two. It's a softer and simpler scent. It doesn't have the depth of projection compared to the two but I think that's actually a good thing. Sometimes sauvage is just a little too strong for a gym or office/school setting. I think cool water parfum is perfect for those setting whilst still having solid longevity. I got a moderate projection for about 3 hours and overall longevity of 7 hours. Definitely not original but still a solid frag especially for beginners. Overall score 8/10

It's a simple, blue fragrance, and I'm a simple, blue fragrance kind of guy. I liked it as soon as I sprayed it. Didn't really get the Sauvage comparison at first (other than that it has a general "fresh, spicy, blue" vibe), but I can smell the similarity much more in the later dry-down. As a skin scent, it's pretty close. Like so many blues, it's good for just about any occassion or time of year. I love the versatility of these types of fragrances, but I can see how fragheads might find them boring... I definitely don't. This is a big "like" for me. Would be a "love" if I got better longevity and projection.

This gives me Bleu De Chanel Parfum vibes but slightly less sweet and dense more so than Sauvage to my nose. Got this for $25 or $20 on clearance from TJ Maxx for a 1.7oz. Good blind buy with not regrets. May pick up a backup if i see it again or once it hits the major discounters. Not really unique but definitely smells very nice. A nice dumb reach. If you have a lot of blue fragrances, this may be redundant. Good for any age and weather.

The opening on this is sauvage without a doubt. I'm not an expert at how long it stays smelling like it but this was powerful enough and lasted a good amount of time. For a cheap alternative this is great though it's almost fifty euros now for 100ml which isn't that cheap really and bit of a joke. 30 max only pay for this.

Is it linear? Yes. Does it last the whole day? Also yes. Does it smell mature without tipping over into elderly? Yes. Does it make me happy every time I catch a whiff? Yes. Is it an easy reach for work that I enjoy and trust to perform whether I am in the field or at the office? I refer you to my previous answers.

This has been my find of the summer. Lots of comparisons here to Dylan Blue and Sauvage, but I prefer it to both of those. Great longevity for a citrus fragrance and the base notes combination of vetiver and sandalwood really comes to the fore after the initial lemon freshness. Awesome value as well.

This bright vetiver freshie deserves more praise and attention. A zesty opening and smooth, spicy dry down makes this a sophisticated, yet simple fragrance - uncomplicated, crowd-pleasing, and versatile. Surprisingly long-lasting given the humble sillage.

Why people keep saying it smells like Sauvage Maybe a bit like sauvage parfum It's a great modern blue scent smelling both fresh and smart. Little powdery with good longevity and projection. I am very pleased with it. 8/10 easily

Like Prada carbon but less earthy, more creamy and with a touch of the original cool water in the base + some coconut Also doesn't make me completely noseblind like carbon does. Phenomenal for the price. Awesome quality

Great DNA, the best Cool Water in my opinion. Not the longest lasting or the best projection, but if the Sauvage DNA is too much for you and starts off great than just gets annoying after a while... this is perfect.

had a sample of this a while back so decided to buy a full bottle. Its so nice and refreshing like a luxurious bar of soap. It is definetly inspired by Dior Sauvage no doubt about it. 9/10

One word. Underrated. Cool Water Parfum takes the popular Cool Water to a higher level. So high, it sets the bar to the point that other blue frags must work really hard to beat it.
