Davidoff Cool Water Man Coral Reef Edition

I prefer this Summer-2014-Version over the Original Cool Water. It ́s fresher and more crisp than the original-one. The minty flair is more dominant, and the citrus-accent gives it a unique fresh feeling that I won ́t want to miss.... Pls make this Cool Water Coral Reef as a permanent fragrance that ́s sold around the year! :)

This juice is dedicated to those who loved and/or still love the original Cool Water. IMO, better than the previous Pure Pacific. An excellent fragrance for the summer to come. Clean, green, energizing indeed. Being a fan of the 1989's CW, I'll give to Coral Reef a deserved 9/10.

Super sensual.. 85% like the original with a little modern twist to it ,which makes it worth the buy... If you get a deal (under $20) ,then just go for it!!

still has the same problem like cool water: very poor longevity. overall it's just fresher than cool wateer. the citrus scent is stronger

Davidoff are pretty much a "What You See is What You Get" house, and Cool Water Coral Reef is a good example of that. It is close to the original but with just enough mild tweaks to make it distinctive. As Yarks and Karlovonamesti state in their reviews below, the comparison to Aspen by Coty is spot on, definitely very similar (although Coral Reef is a more modern scent). Longevity and Silage are Average but that is to be expected these days with fragrances of this type. I have used up my bottle inside a couple of months, we had unusually warm weather this summer and was a great cologne to keep fresh. In saying that, I won't be in a rush to purchase another bottle. The reasons being that I buy a bottle of the original every summer, and Davidoff release flankers to CW every year so will be trying them as there are only minor differences (to my nose anyway). If you like the original then this is a safe buy, it is slightly more green than aquatic, have to say it's quite nice. Will really shine in hot weather and good choice for office.
