Performance & Scent Profile

• Opening: Bright, crisp citrus with a saline breeze and subtle herbal green nuance.

• Heart: Cypress and oak deepen, providing the aromatic backbone; the marine salt aspect recedes but lends an oceanic skeleton.

• Dry Down: The wood accords linger with a mellow, elegant texture. The fragrance stabilizes into a balanced woody-aromatic with a slight salty whisper.

• Projection & Longevity: Projection is moderate to confident early, then gives way to a closer wear. Many report the Parfum version holds better than the EDP version. Fragrantica+1

• Overall Vibe: Sophisticated coastal elegance with depth; less overtly “beachy” than aquatic fragrances, more refined and grounded.
