What does Holy Water (Cologne) smell like?

The scent reads as a cool, clean wash of water air. Ozone and aquatic notes come first, with oak laying a dry, woody base beneath them. Earthy and leathery tones sit among the accords, and it has a distinctly synthetic edge; there is no sweetness or floral softness here.

Longevity is rated moderate, though few people have voted on it. It suits anyone who wants a light, airy scent without a gender lean. Those after a similar profile could also try Aaron Terence Hughes Water and Demeter Swimming Pool.
