The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, Cool Water Woman Exotic Summer by Davidoff is an extension of the brand's annual summer limited editions that celebrate aquatic and oceanic inspiration. This floral aquatic fragrance begins with a fresh melon top note before transitioning into a heart of delicate lily-of-the-valley and floral notes. The base features rich and sensual orris root, creating a balanced composition that marries crisp freshness with subtle warmth.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to ensure the melon top note has enough presence, but be aware it fades within an hour. The orris root base will linger for several hours, so this is best suited for daytime wear when you want a fresh yet warm scent.
