Davidoff Cool Water Eau de Toilette 200ml is one of the most influential men's fragrances of the 20th century — composed in 1988 by Pierre Bourdon and credited with launching the entire aquatic-fragrance trend. A clean, marine-fresh aromatic, it opens with mint, sea water and rosemary, develops through a heart of lavender, jasmine, geranium and neroli, and settles onto a smooth base of oakmoss, sandalwood and musk. Houses in the recognisable cool-blue glass flacon. The 200ml bottle is the long-haul size for those who already wear it as a daily.
About Davidoff
Founded in Geneva in 1911 by Zino Davidoff, the Davidoff name has been associated with fine cigars, leather goods and, since the 1980s, men's and women's fragrances. Cool Water for Men, launched in 1988, put the Davidoff fragrance line on the map and remains one of its biggest exports — clean, modern and instantly recognisable on a counter.

Who it's for
Cool Water suits men who like crisp, marine-fresh fragrances over sweet or oriental compositions. It is a versatile year-round wear, especially good in spring and summer, and clean enough to layer easily under business attire. If you favour scents like Calvin Klein Eternity for Men, Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme or Acqua di Gio, Cool Water is the original benchmark for the entire aquatic family.
How to use
- Hold the cool-blue bottle around 15 cm from the skin.
- Spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, chest.
- Three to four sprays balance presence and longevity for the eau de toilette concentration.
- For an extra fresh hit after the gym or sport, mist lightly across a clean t-shirt.
