Great fragrance for spring/summer.
When it was available for pre-order, I was quite surprised by the price of, I believe, €130. However, it quickly adjusted to the current market situation.
I will try to create a sort of pro/con list so you can better categorize it. But first, a brief description of the scent and what I perceive.
In the opening, you are greeted by a very lovely fig. Unfortunately, it fades after a while and just becomes sweet. I don't perceive coconut at all, whether in an office, a school, or a restaurant. There were no complaints.
I would categorize it as suitable for spring/summer. For men aged 30 and above. Now, let's move on to the pro/con list.
Pro:
Nice fragrance for spring/summer.
You smell clean and fresh.
Price corresponds to the current economic situation.
The bottle looks good. (But that's a matter of taste)
It doesn't disturb those around you.
Contra:
I don't recognize some scent notes (coconut or ginger)
It becomes very sweet after a while (which might bother some)
In my statement, I wrote that I find it sweet and delicious. I still feel that way today. I listed the sweetness under cons because I am considering the general public. I also read from time to time that many do not like "too sweet." Therefore, I placed this topic under cons. I personally have no problem with it.
Nevertheless, I find it perfectly suitable for spring and summer. Simply because it has something special due to the fig. I like it very much and can still recommend it despite the cons. Enjoy your new fragrance! :).
Thank you for your time and have a nice weekend! :).

Eros The Spicy
Hello dear community :)
I searched for this perfume for 2 years! I first smelled it at the release in a Versace store in Berlin and was already impressed back then, I just wasn't ready to pay full price.
Well. I should have done it because it later turned out that it is damn hard to get in Berlin, as soon as it was in stock, it was immediately sold out.
About the scent:
Basically, it smells exactly like the regular EROS, just spicier due to the pepper. There isn't much more to say about the scent, really.
Longevity:
On my skin, it lasts incredibly long. I would even place it on the same level as Le Male Le Parfum, it lasts at least 12 hours on me. Yesterday I sprayed it on at 1:30 PM and this morning around 10 AM I could still smell it on my right arm.
Sillage fills an entire room, so be careful how much you spray on.
I only managed to get the 30 ML. But I am really glad to have it in my collection at all.

The Perfect Flanker?
Hello
I know the original LE MALE from my dad; he has been wearing it for years, and a few months ago (before Corona), I even received a sample (of the original).
I am a huge fan of Eau De Parfums & also regular perfumes as they simply last longer.
But this one is an absolute monster with a lot of power! The longevity is inhuman! I sprayed it on my left arm yesterday around 2 PM, and this morning around 8 AM, there was still a little spark to smell!
The scent itself is very woody, lavender, vanilla, and surprisingly not too sweet. The Le Male DNA is still present.
I would strongly advise you to only spray 1 to a maximum of 2 sprays towards your neck and hair; due to the strength, 3 sprays are definitely too much.
The sillage is loud; when you enter a room, it is immediately filled with Le Male, Le Parfum.
I think it is wearable in the summer, but only if you use half a spray. Otherwise, I would classify it more for spring, autumn & winter.
In terms of age, I would say early 30s and up; if the younger crowd wants it, I would still tend towards the regular Le Male.
For clubbing or concerts, I would say it is definitely too loud; you have to keep in mind that your surroundings ALWAYS have a different nose than you.
Now, let's get to the conclusion:
A very intense, long-lasting scent with lavender & vanilla as well as woody notes at a (in my opinion) very good price, and above all, you get something for your money, both in terms of performance and longevity; a minimum of 13 hours is more than realistic here.
Thank you for reading & stay healthy

The Scent for Cinephiles
Hello there :)
I saw the scent today at Karstadt (Berlin) and immediately tested it; it smells very intense of mandarin and still contains the Cool Water DNA.
The longevity is likely between 4 and 5 hours, and the price for 100ml is around €50 (RRP). This version is limited, and if you're interested, you should act quickly as you never know how high this edition is and especially whether any will be produced again.
The scent manages to create a bridge between film and fragrance lovers, because, and this is very important, IT IS NOT MERCHANDISE! Rather, it is a collaboration between Davidoff, the designer brand, and the film people who developed the movie; you could also wear it perfectly for a movie night.
The scent itself smells very delicious of mandarin and makes you long for the sea; it is not intrusive, not exciting, and also not overpowering. You could actually wear it in any season, but I can well imagine that many will prefer it in summer due to its freshness.
The bottle makes a nice impression; it transitions from white to a beautiful dark blue gradient, with the Davidoff Cool Water logo in the middle and the Aquaman logo underneath.
Thanks for reading :)

Design is not everything.
Hello everyone :)
I received a sample with my purchase of COOL WATERS INTENSE, and I tested it yesterday.
Unfortunately, I only just read that this is supposed to be a purely summer fragrance ^^
But let's get started:
At first, it smells really fresh and clean, and it makes an impression, but after a while, it unfortunately develops negatively; it becomes musty, and there’s something in the dry down that irritates my nose. It’s just not enjoyable; the ARMANI ABSOLU INSTINCT smells significantly better and more pleasant and goes in the same direction.
I find it interesting how buyers can often deceive themselves. Okay, it was just a sample, but if someone had bought it blindly based on the name, they would have been really disappointed. I certainly won’t be adding this fragrance to my collection, and it is thus the first VERSACE FRAGRANCE that I really do not like. In summer, I would definitely prefer to wear other fragrances.
But one thing must be said in favor of the fragrance: it is not sweet, which means it could really be worn in summer (if liked), since it doesn’t attract bees or wasps.
The bottle itself is quite impressive, but as mentioned above, design is not everything :)
