It does indeed remind of D&G Light Blue Intense as well. What sets them apart is the absence of the obnoxious amount of calone found in D&G, Carolina Herrera’s composition is much more balanced for my taste. It’s light and airy but it’s no slouch in the projection and longevity department (for a freshie).

Smells like lighter version of DnG light blue eau intense…

weak, weak, weak both notes, parameters and release…
30-60 min is fine, has a little bit of 212 NYC DNA but after 1h this vibe is gone and all is left is a skin scent similar to Beckham Classic…
If you thought latest CH 212 NYC batches are piss, try Aqua. With such name its not even longer a secret its 100% piss !
Do not waste your money on this garbage !

This is a solid release. Smells good and performed well for a few hours before having to shower outperforming whatever else I was wearing. I also was reminded of Versace pour homme while testing. This is different though and as you already expect very very generic nothing new. I’ll probably buy it

Dry and Airy is indeed the best way to describe this.
Gone are the green grass notes of the original 212 MEN and while listed as having ambroxan and aquatic notes – if they are there…. I don’t get much.
Simple, clean, linear.
The comparisons to Versace Pour Homme are valid – however, this 212 Aqua release has less tonka and musk. Perhaps a Lacoste White vibe as others have mentioned.
I categorize this as an extreme high heat fragrance. Not a sexy night out modern fragrance. Nothing like a Dior Sauvage ambroxan bomb or the balsamic Chanel Bleu.
Nice bottle with the usual Carolina Herrera magnetic cap.

Do not blind buy, I own a bottle of 212 Aqua Men and it reminds me of the original 212 Men but with light airy spin in it… That just my opinion…! Sample First..! Check Ebay..!
KiberFOX – :
I had to try this so blind bought it, based on 212 being great and having longevity (at least it had before).
I’m gonna rewrite this but my first impressions are that it’s very similar to the original, but I feel like they have taken a turn towars Bleu here.
It’s the kind of smell that my nose tunes out to, I can’t smell it after a while.
I can’t say that this smells “aquatic”.
Дмитручо – :
Add some watery and fresh aromatic/citrus herbs in the original 212 base with some “ambroxan vibe ” and you get this “Aqua”. Found it ordinary, but the original 212 touch make it stand in a better place. Longevity and sillage are great, you can smell it in a nice space around your and permance on skin, comfortable with some magnetic”fresh” lines but finally, nothing outstanding of course,i think maybe Morillas could put 212 AQUA it in a higher place..
Ми4ман – :
well… meh… it’s not all that bad. It’s dull, another ordinary aquatic-citrusy edt. Morillas probably has some financial problems if he signed for this.
Puig (the producer) should bring back pre-reformualted version of CH 212 Men instead of releasing this :/

Alberto never stops.
futtipfug – :
Is it another masterpiece in aquatic classAlberto morillas ,the king of floral/Aquatics? I want to try it

shok – :
