Hey there, fellow fragrance lovers! Today, I’m here to share my thoughts on Cool Water Parfum, a fresh addition to the renowned Cool Water lineup from Davidoff. Released in 2021, this one is labeled as a Parfum, unlike the original Cool Water, which is an Eau de Toilette (EdT). Let’s continue, shall we?
Quick Facts:
- Scent Profile: fresh, woody
- Season: all-seasons
- Longevity: less than average
- Occasion: office, leisure time
- Price: $
Smell:
Cool Water Parfum definitely stays true to its roots, maintaining that iconic freshness that the original is famous for. But here’s the twist: this Parfum edition adds some subtle “blue” notes, reminiscent of popular fragrances like Bleu de Chanel. So, while it’s a bit less fresh than the OG, it gains some complexity.
Clearly, Davidoff is trying to make a splash in the “blue” fragrance category, which has been all the rage lately. And the result? A pleasant, very wearable scent, especially when you factor in the price point. That being said, if you mix the well-trodden freshness of the original Cool Water with the overused blue notes, you end up with a rather generic fragrance. Solid, sure, but nothing remarkable new.
Longevity:
When it comes to longevity, Cool Water Parfum is slightly below average, and actually performs a tad worse than the original EdT. So, keep that in mind if you’re looking for an all-day scent.

Final Thoughts:
Don’t get me wrong, Cool Water Parfum isn’t a bad perfume. In fact, it’s a solid option if you either a) like blue fragrances such as Bleu de Chanel and want them to be a bit fresher or b) you’re a die-hard fan of the Original Cool Water and crave something with a bit more complexity and less sharpness. And at this price point, there’s not much to lose by giving it a shot.
So, there you have it, gents! Cool Water Parfum might not be a groundbreaking scent, but if you’re in the market for a familiar, easy-to-wear fragrance with a touch of the “blue” trend, this could be worth a look.
