Smells a bit like Cool Water but isn’t the same. I use it at home or for quick outings when I don’t want to carry something heavy. For the price, it’s worth every penny. I bought it blind based on a YouTube video and have no regrets; in fact, I’ve already gotten several compliments. If you find it and like the clean scent, it’s a must-buy.

I notice it’s a bit similar to Cool Water, but not exactly. Personally, I use it when I’m at home or need to go out for a bit without wanting to wear a heavy perfume. I consider it completely worth the price; I bought it blindly based on a YouTube review and have no regrets. In fact, it’s even earned me a couple of compliments. If you find it and like a clean scent, it’s a must-buy.

It’s a soapy version of Cool Water. For the price, it’s worth it for the gym or whatever. I agree with Eloezer’s review; it’s accurate and works well for me.

I agree; it’s a soapy version of Cool Water. For the price, it’s worth it for the gym, etc. Eloezer’s review is correct, and I stand by it.
Eliezer
If you’re looking for the Cool Water effect, this delivers, but not 100%. The original has a more complex development: that clean, soapy, almost detergent-like touch with a mentholated freshness and a very subtle sweet finish. UDV Blue is simpler: a constant soapy blast that softens up to 6 or 7 hours (I have oily skin). Unbeatable quality for the price. A total perfume bomb.

I agree with MsAd89; the notes are off. I tested it alongside Cool Water, and they’re similar, but I’d rather spend a bit more on Davidoff. UDV Blue is very simple, slightly green, soapy, with an amber touch giving it a medium sweetness. In contrast, Cool Water starts with sharp marine notes and finishes with tobacco, giving it charm and more complexity. For tight budgets, I see it as ‘meh’, but usable.
MsAd89
It’s a fresh fragrance similar to Cool Water; it smells amazing and is perfect for post-shower, whether after the gym, work, or just at home. The listed top notes (pineapple, green, lemon, lavender, neroli), heart (lily, jasmine, cardamom, geranium), and base (moss, musk, sandalwood, cedar, amber) are incorrectly written here; the correct ones are listed on the brand’s website. It would be ideal if Fragrantica updated them.

It’s a fresh fragrance similar to Cool Water, smells great, and is ideal after a shower, at the gym, at work, or at home. The notes are wrong; I’m leaving the correct ones according to the brand’s website and hope Fragrantica updates them: Top: pineapple, green, lemon, lavender, orange blossom. Heart: lily of the valley, jasmine, cardamom, geranium. Base: moss, musk, sandalwood, cedar, amber.

I was gifted this, and without having any expectations upon seeing it, I was incredibly surprised. Basically, without going into details, this is what Cool Water used to be and no longer is. Straight up, an early-batch Cool Water.

They gave it to me as a gift, and without having high expectations, it surprised me a lot. Basically, it’s what it was and no longer Cool Water… it’s directly an early-batch Cool Water.

Excellent fragrance, especially considering the price. I gifted it to my dad and he loved it. It’s super fresh and very versatile, though ideal for hot or humid climates. It gives an absolute sense of freshness.

What a great perfume! It’s a worthy copy of Davidoff’s Cool Water. I even bought it before I had the original. It has great longevity and projection for the price. Perfect for everyday wear. Thumbs up for the Ulric de Varens house.

For its low price, it’s a bomb. It brings back many memories because it’s the one I always used as a kid. So far I have one bottle; if I had to rate it, I’d give it an 8.5/10.

For the price, this is a beast. Plus, it brings back many memories since it’s the one I always wore as a kid. So far, I have one bottle, and if I had to rate it, I’d give it an 8.5/10.
