Which Should You Buy?
Davidoff Cool Water Frozen is a divisive flanker, with some hailing it as a lighter, more herbal version of the original and others finding it a pale, short-lived imitation. It's a 'lost gem' for some, a 'disappointment' for others.
No.135 chases Davidoff's original 1988 Cool Water for men - mint, rosemary and lavender over an oakmoss-and-musk base. It keeps that unmistakable oceanic-aromatic freshness, though the base loses some of the original's mossy depth and the whole thing fades a touch quicker on skin.

Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, aromatic nature makes it perfect for casual wear, especially in warmer weather, and ideal for sports. Moderate performance prevents it from being a strong contender for formal occasions or dates, but it's pleasant enough for the office.
