smells like Nautica Voyage and Dylan Blue had a baby

A very typical Cool Water style scent. There’s an aquatic accord; I suppose I get lavender, citrus and some wood as well. To Aqua Extreme’s credit the notes aren’t too screechy or headache inducing. They smell pretty synthetic though. All elements of this fragrance feel compressed and one dimensional. No character at all.
Sillage and projection are pretty weak from the get go. Lasted about three hours before becoming nearly undetectable. Not sexy but appropriate for most situations, ages and warmer weather. To be fair this is slightly better than I expected but it’s still not a good fragrance. Bottle looks okay; note composition uncreative; performance poor. You can do much better for the same price or less.

Nothing too special about the smell, but it does do something slightly different than other aquatics that I can’t quite put my finger on yet. Reminds me of a fragrance long lost in my past from when I was much younger. Sadly though, the performance of this stuff is horrendous. Literally within 5 minuets of spraying I started to struggle to pick up the smell (when most other fragrances would be radiating like crazy around me), by 30 minuets there was almost nothing left (and this is after 6 sprays — 3 chest, 2 neck and 1 hair). After an hour or two I really had to use my imagination to pick anything up, I could smell traces of the scent by sniffing under my shirt where I had hit 3 sprays to my chest, but it still was extremely faint.
It’s a good thing this is somewhat cheap, but even then, if it doesn’t last more than an 30 minuets to an hour, why would I ever bother wearing it? If the smell was out of this world/super unique it might be a different story and a tiny bit more acceptable, but not something as generic smelling as this.
This was my first Perry Ellis fragrance, and am quite disappointed. I also picked up Spirited as well but haven’t tested it out yet on my skin, so not sure if all PE fragrances are terrible with longevity, or if it’s just this one.

It’s good. Not sure how good yet, but I dig it so far. Nothing like the original Aqua (which I enjoyed) and not at all what I was expecting when I read the notes. The tobacco and labdanum are noticeable immediately and provide a rich counterbalance to the geranium and juniper. It’s a darker, deeper scent than I thought it would be. I like that in aquatics. It shares something in common with Wings, Perry Ellis 360°, and CW Night Dive (minus the cloying tonka note). When I read the fragrance notes on Fragrantica I expected this to smell very similar to the original Cool Water formulation, but the result isn’t even close. If you’re thinking about blind buying this, I would say go for it! It’s safe enough but definitely more interesting than your run-of-the-mill generic aquatic.

It smells great, with distinctive note of lavender, wood and geranium but it also has bergamot and something like violet and a touch of bourbon and tobacco in its base notes.
The longevity is pretty weak, 2 hours or so, and it better stays on paper or tissue than on skin.

The original was really nice and I loved it. I spray it on my arm and it smells fresh I feel uplifted 10/10!!
…and then 5 minutes went by, and it’s gone. No joke. Hope this one is decent version of that, lasting at least 5 hours
