Sea of Light
by Orlov Paris
Sea of Light opens with a bright, juicy citrus accord—mandarin, lemon, and petitgrain—giving it a crisp, effervescent quality that feels instantly refreshing. The heart blends soft peach and black currant notes into a lightly fruity, aromatic aquatic base, creating a delicate, airy feel reminiscent of a seaside mist kissed by sunlight. The salt notes are present but subdued, framing the fragrance rather than dominating it. The overall impression is understated, balanced, and unobtrusive—like sipping a warm, fizzy lemonade on a sunny beach. Despite its lightness, the scent lingers moderately and wears close to the skin, making it suitable for daytime use, especially in spring and summer. It feels most true to its promise in warm weather, enhancing the freshness of a sunny day.
