New editions of Davidoff Cool Water cologne will be stamped with the Street Fighter V logo as part of a Champion Edition collaboration with Capcom. A Chun-Li-inspired women’s version of Cool Water is also available. Both scents are available now from official retailers for 49,99 € each.
Cool Water Street Fighter Champion Edition cologne is described as a citrus-woody scent with hints of green mandarin and black pepper. According to Davidoff, it has a “fresh combination of tonicity and strength which perfectly reflects Ryu’s formidable fighting style.”
Cool Water For Her is inspired by the unique fighting style and femininity of kung fu fighter Chun-Li. Base notes of pear and mandarin lead to a floral finish. “Blending pure energy and grace, the perfume perfectly captures the quintessence of Chun-Li.”
Capcom has pursued several collaborative efforts with other video game companies in 2021, including adding Ryu and Chunners to Summoners War, Power Ranger: Battle For The Grid, and Fortnite. While a cologne partnership might seem out of left field, this isn’t the first time Capcom has released a Street Fighter scent. They independently released Street Fighter for Men along with a Resident Evil-inspired scent in 2016. A 2018 partnership with boxing supplier Everlast introduced a bottle themed after Sagat.
Promotional images show a pared-down Street Fighter V character select screen, hinting at more collaborations in the future. Ryu’s lifelong sparring partner Ken, 3rd Strike nemesis Gill, and SFV newcomer Lucia could all get their own fragrances soon.
