Aquarius Part 2
After Cool Water we make Hot Water, said Mr. Davidoff and invented the red bottle.
In itself not a bad plan. Only lacks it as with many plans in the execution. "Hot Water" takes the aquatic of "Cool Water" and mixes it with spices from the oriental bazaar. A strange composition, one would think, however the aquatic quickly disappears and the spices remain. Unfortunately, the sillage also disappears with it and you would need a Pinocchio nose to still perceive the fragrance after four hours. This is bad.
Weak sillage and durability make this inherently interesting fragrance unattractive and overpriced. Too bad.

unobtrusive
Most things in life are a matter of taste. Beyond physics, anyway
I had great expectations of Bulgarian "Man in Black". Whoever writes "black" in the name evokes associations such as "conspicuous", "harsh", "oily", "smoky".
But - I don't notice any of that here. It's all unobtrusive, hesitant. It's spicy, but if you wait for the black hammer, you get old
The sillage is weak. If the nose needs to get close to the perfume, something's going wrong. At least in the wallet, because here you have to spray three times and not once as with products in the same price range. That's expensive.
Certainly not a bad perfume. Only for me it's too subtle and "vague". It's a one-time purchase. Then there is space under the bathroom mirror again, or as EOC once sang: "The old junk has to go out and new junk has to go in."

Shallow water
I'm running out of Davidoff's bottle of Cool Water. Question: Repurchase, yes or no?
Although I did not buy it myself, it was an annual Christmas present from my aunt, who died this year at the age of 90. There is no more Davidoff for Christmas
Repurchase, yes or no?
My answer is no. There's no reason except nostalgia. "Cool Water" (1988) is actually nothing or television from the 80s with David Hasselhoff from "Baywatch" as protagonists.
I used to spray "Cool Water" all the time. But to get the bottle empty. For me, it's pure synthetic, smells like the sea. Davidoff's "The Game" is definitely better, but once you lose faith, you fit in anywhere.
