Dirty Sea
This is pure ambergris. It is salty and musky. Honestly, its too salty and musky. Its at the point where its very harsh, like you are constantly being hit in the face with salt and dirt. There is some earthiness in there but it just makes it feel more like a dark dank sea rather than a fresh clean ocean. This needs something to cut through the spiciness, to lighten this fragrance up. This almost reminds me of those cheap colognes that young men buy when they start experimenting with fragrances.

As someone who doesn't conform to gender norms, I would say this is purely a masculine fragrance. I cannot imagine someone in their feminine energy who would want to smell this aggressive. The scent did last all day, over 8 hours and the projection was fairly strong. In this case, I wish it didn't. It is €179 for 50ml and €279 for a 100ml.

Natural Ambregris
Musc-Ambre Gris is a great animalic and musky scent. With this perfume, I realized that Ambregris is my favorite animalic note, much better than civet or hyrax, which smell very earthy. That's exactly what I like here: the scent is not too earthy because you almost don't notice the truffle.
You immediately notice that natural and high-quality ingredients have been used here. When I smell this fragrance, I imagine that this Ambregris has been floating on the Atlantic for years.
The perfume belongs to the Base Notes collection, which suits it perfectly. It lacks the fresh notes to be complete. That's why I like to layer it with a fresh/fruity scent, which gives me a great combination with the animalic base.
The bottle looks high quality, the spray head is good and the longevity and projection are great. Not a blind buy! And you shouldn't spray too much.

Initially herbal bitter-green, this warm and salty, slightly animalic, earthy-woody Spring fragrance, settles to a powdery musky-woody base.
