Pros & Cons
- ✅ I smelled this on a friend and its very bright and delicious. Coming from the Equator where mangosteen is a seasonal fruit, I can honestly tell you that this perfume has that fresh mangosteen aroma. Its sweet and light. Mixed with the floral notes, its almost like lychee but not quite there yet. The perfume is very fun and young. True, I don't get that original Cool Water aquatic note in this. I like this one.
- ✅ Nice fragrance. Not groundbreaking, but it is pleasant and relaxing. It’s inoffensive and feminine. It smells like a fresh and sweet shampoo. Good for casual summer days. A safe blind buy, in my opinion. Good for all ages. Try it if you want to feel clean and romantic. P. S: reminds me of Taylor by Taylor Swift
- ✅ This is so lovely on a humid summer day, it’s musky yet clean somehow. I wear it when I miss traveling and sneaking bags of mangosteens into the hotel to eat over the sink haha
- ✅ This is a really nice summer fragrance. Before I read the notes, I thought it was a citrus-tropical blend but I couldn't quite put my finger on it, because the citrus is not super tart or super sour, and the tropical fruit was also not something that I could name. Then I came to check the notes and saw that this contains "mangosteen", which is something I never smelled or tasted, so the tropical part is probably that. Otherwise, this is very pleasant, inoffensive, I have a hard time imagining it turning cloying even in hot temperatures. Sillage is not huge, but it can be smelled (for example, on my skin it's stronger than most of Guerlain's Allegorias). On the other hand, I feel the original Cool Water for her is much more unique. The acquatic - calone combination in that one is something that has ruled over the last decades and I still feel that it's in a league of its own when it comes to light summer fragrances. This one is more non descript instead. I think I would have to smell it several times in order to recognize it for what it is, whereas the original Cool Water is really striking.
- ✅ I recently purchase this at a chemist that had this on special and I will say that I really like this version of Cool Water. It is more sweeter than the original and also it has a nice citrus note which I do like in perfumes.the longevity of this fragrance is moderate so you do not have to spray this every five minutes and it will last you for a few hours. I am not a huge fan of the first Cool Water but I find the intense version to be better than the original so if you don’t really like the first Cool water still give this a try because it is a very nicely made fragrance.
- ❌ Ouffff ! Very different from the original, very fruity. there is a strange metallic smell on my skin, really not for me. This was a "not very successful" blind buy. oh well, will have to sell or swap. Do not recommend if you are looking for a more intense version of the original, that's not it.
- ❌ It's fine on my wrist. On my neck, I don't like it at all. It reminds me of Light Blue for women, a perfume I really don't like.
