Chanson d’Eau by Coty

Another cologne from my childhood and adulthood, with its song still in my head… we are, we are, we are Chanson D’Eau… A fresh fragrance ideal for completing your routine after a shower, with a calming touch. Although it seems simple, the basil and cardamomo give it personality and an unmistakable scent that not everyone will like. It doesn’t have much sillage, but I can feel it hours later close to the skin; I sleep and wake up wearing it. It stays the same from start to finish, without evolution, perfect for spring and summer. Totally 90s, far from being sweet and fruity, that’s its charm. Even the splash takes you back to other times…

Ohhhhh… what a beautiful fragrance. Fresh and economical but with notable note complexity. It made me feel young, beautiful, and fresh. I had it for years until they discontinued it. What a tragedy because I loved it.

Coming back from the beach with sunburned skin, taking a cold shower, and lying on the terrace listening to the sea with a good book and Chanson D’eau so fresh and full of positive energy relaxes me and accompanies me while I read and sleep. A summer with another, many years later, and for me it remains the same. It’s one of those summer colognes you wear all the time; it has strength and personality, making me feel fresh, clean, and giving me well-being as I notice its intermittent presence. It’s spicy, a feast of cardamom and jasmine, very green, slightly bitter; my daughters say it “smells like plants,” with a sweet touch from the fruits and pleasantly woody as it settles, the sandalwood adds elegance. Acceptable longevity for an EDT and very economical; a great brand could sell it for five times the price and it would fit, but it’s quality at a good price to apply generously on hot days. A delight!

I bought it just on a whim for something fresh and economical, and I like it more than expected. It smells green and revitalizing. At first, I only noticed freshness and cleanliness, like after a summer shower, but with daily use, I start to distinguish the herbal notes with lavender and the floral ones, a bit sweeter. It’s linear, but it smells wonderful. It has good longevity. It makes me think of sunny days, sea breeze, green and blue colors.

What a beauty, what nostalgia, what a pleasure to remember Sally Oldfield’s voice singing “Mirrors” in this cologne’s ad. It was one of my first fragrances and has returned to my hands, welcomed with open arms. It smells like bath foam 🛁, just as aldehydes are supposed to smell like 🧼; Chanson smells like the fresh scent left after using it with hot water. It smells like “home”—cozy and slightly refreshing. So comforting. The calming sensation of rubbing your skin with a soft natural sponge 🧽 full of foam carries the signature of Chanson d’eau. We are, we are, we are Chanson d’eau.

For me, it will always be the Eau parfumee au the vert (Bvlgari) of the working class in Spain 🙂

It’s a cologne that smells amazing, taking me back to when I was a girl and we’d go to the municipal pool in the summer. It smells fresh, green, and youthful, like a vacation. The problem is it doesn’t last at all; I only smell it right when I apply it, and after two minutes it’s gone. It’s not street-worthy, but for home, it’s worth it for the size and price, although Heno de Pravia is better. Update 12/20/21: I’m still using it in summer and fall; in the fall it has more presence and smells clean. I’ll buy it again for winter.

Just arrived and smells delicious: super fresh, clean, and refreshing. The price is very affordable and I totally recommend it.

It makes me feel like I’m in a waterfall surrounded by aquatic plants. I used to wear it in my teens, and it smells amazing (if you like exotic talc-herb blends, you’ll love this). It’s discontinued in Mexico.

I love it for after a shower. I live in Argentina and it’s not available here; a relative brought it for me, and then a friend did too. I have one unopened. I used it in my teens, it’s super refreshing for summer, and I adore it.

It brings back memories of my adolescence… In the summer, it was my mother’s fragrance, though I used it too. It’s a very fresh and easily recognizable eau de toilette, at least for those of us who wore it in the nineties. Nowadays, you can find it in Spain at online perfumeries for a ridiculous price, and I wouldn’t mind enjoying it again in the summer. It’s a fragrance that doesn’t get old, and although I haven’t smelled it in years, I can perfectly recall its aroma. It’s fresh, clean, and endearing at the same time; perhaps this is due to the memories it evokes. It’s green and barely citrusy, certainly thanks to the heart and base notes. For me, it’s a spot-on eau de toilette.

Fresh, natural, and affordable (and not bad for the price)
