I bought this as a newbie and sold it off when I became super-sensitive to strong lavender notes. Now that my sensitivity is low and I saw a bottle at a good price, I thought I’d try it again. At first, you get some of the Cool Water characteristics: it’s a bit sweet, the lavender is obvious, and there’s some dihydromyrcenol (perhaps with other aroma chemicals used in CW that I don’t know about). It gets a little powdery/musky but many of the notes are not obvious, as it is a tight blend, though I wouldn’t call it a “blob,” nor “sticky.” I get a touch of apple, but where is the nutmeg and pepper? Actually, it has more of a rose-like quality than a spicy one!
And don’t expect any clear cedar or vanilla note either. If you find CW to be a muddled composition with irritating note clashes, but think you might like it if it were more focused and simpler, this might be one to try. Molto Smalto is in the same arena as this, but it’s got a very noticeable sandalwood note (and is sweeter). Here, however, I don’t get any strong note or accord beyond what you encounter initially. When it was around $10 per 100 ml it was certainly a good deal for those who want this sort of thing, but at current prices I’m not sure you can’t do better with one of the many scents that might remind you of Cool Water.
UPDATE: Second regular wearing and now I’m able to detect some cedar, which gives a slight tobacco impression (presumably due to the combination). This is why I think it’s important to wear a scent a few times in the usual way if you think there is anything that you might like about it. Because of this cedar/tobacco quality, it’s enjoyable to me, whereas Cool Water for men is not (that one has more of a generic, “woody/amber” element in the base. Note that the box I have has a list of ingredients that includes tree moss and oakmoss.
