Philippe Bousseton crafted Davidoff Cool Water Man Coral Reef Edition in 2014 as part of the brand's ongoing commitment to marine conservation. This fragrance opens with a luminous mandarin that is immediately revived by the sharp, aromatic notes of mint, creating an invigorating and refreshing top accord. The base note of creamy sandalwood adds depth and warmth, grounding the composition in a woody and powdery finish that makes it feel both energizing and masculine.
As part of Davidoff's Coral Reef collection, this scent is dedicated to preserving Indo-Pacific coral reefs. It captures the essence of an oceanic escape with its clean, crisp freshness, making it a perfect blend for those seeking a modern twist on the original Cool Water.

Application Tips
Given its moderate longevity and sillage, two sprays will suffice to keep the scent close to your skin. The mandarin-orange top note is bright but fleeting, so it's best applied in the morning or for daytime activities when you want a refreshing burst that gradually fades into a warm sandalwood base.
