A fragrance of the past, present and certainly the future

Yeah, Davidoff Cool Water is boring. But what does boring really mean? "Boring is the oppressive feeling of idleness or monotony." Yes, Davidoff is monotonous if you compare it to modern fragrances, where the aim is to reproduce as many facets as possible in a fragrance at the same time, so that the fragrance attains the highest possible complexity. But does that always have to be the case? Certainly not. It takes monotony to appreciate complexity and vice versa. Ying and Yang. So it also needs scents like Davidoff Cool Water.
Cool Water is a good aquatic scent that reminds me of a freshly shaved aspiring adult male. Wet shaved with sea water. The scent is not exciting, but it is a good, reliable aquatic scent. That's what the definition of high-quality shaving lotion should smell like, right? Cool Water is and remains a classic. It will never develop the great passion in me but I will never be indifferent to it.
