What does Cool Water Wave for Women (2018) smell like?
Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions that come up most. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it leaves a light trail through the day. Half of the voters find it feminine, and some call it modern.
Key lime and nashi pear set the fresh tone, backed by aquatic and fruity accords. Jasmine sambac and floral notes add a soft sweetness, while amber leaves a little warmth underneath. The overall effect is cool, clean and slightly synthetic. Rituals Océan Infini and Jil Sander Sport Water have a close profile.
