A crisp, aromatic aquatic with a sunlit citrus opening that evokes a rocky coastline at dawn. The fragrance begins with bright citron and lemon, presenting a lively, effervescent quality like sparkling sea water. It then settles into a layered marine heart with sea water and Haitian vetiver, which adds a mineral, green depth without herbaceousness. The drydown reveals warm cedar and labdanum, lending a quietly sensual, slightly sweet woody base that elevates the simplicity into something more mature. The scent is light and clean, with a linear, confident progression that feels casual yet refined—ideal for daytime wear in spring or summer. Performance is moderate, fading within four hours, and sillage remains close to the skin, making it best for personal, intimate moments. Its aesthetic leans toward polished minimalism, with a glass bottle and wooden cap that enhance the refined, unassuming character. While not groundbreaking, it is one of the most consistently praised aquatics in this price range due to its balanced structure and effortless wearability. It’s not a showstopper in projection or longevity, but it does stand out among its peers for its mature, restrained simplicity.
