Perfume Parlour Refreshing Aqua is an Eau de Parfum. Refreshing Aqua opens with Melon and Watermelon, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk and Sandalwood. Perfume Parlour's Refreshing Aqua carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Refreshing Aqua recreates Davidoff Cool Water Woman, the breezy 90s aquatic floral. It captures the watery-melon freshness and clean lily-of-the-valley heart that made the original a staple, and since Cool Water itself wears light and close, the dupe's skin-near, modest-longevity character lands quite faithfully for the price.

About

Refreshing Aqua opens cool and juicy with a watery melon freshness, evoking the original's ocean-breeze overture. The heart is clean and dewy, built around lily-of-the-valley with a soft floral lift, before a gentle sandalwood-musk base gives a quiet, slightly soapy finish. Against Davidoff's Cool Water Woman, this dupe keeps the calm, fresh-aquatic spirit and the breezy floral cleanliness; because the original is itself a light, easy-projecting scent with modest staying power, the dupe's skin-close wear and shorter longevity feel true to type rather than a major step down. It is an easygoing, refreshing everyday fragrance - clean enough for the office, light enough for warm-weather casual and active days - delivering the familiar Cool Water vibe at a budget price.
