The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2012 by Davidoff and crafted by Nathalie Lorson, Cool Water Sensual Essence is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women that combines the crispness of citrus with the warmth of powdery woods. The scent opens with red berries and bergamot, giving way to the floral notes of frangipani and orchid before settling into a base of vanilla, woody notes, and musk. This composition is designed to evoke a sense of sensuality and elegance, blending freshness with warmth in a sophisticated manner.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays for a balanced wear that allows the fragrance to build on your skin. The red berries and bergamot top notes are bright but fleeting, so let the base notes of vanilla and musk do most of the lasting work. Best suited for daytime to evening transitions.
