Brise Marine is a great name, I think. Because "Brise" sounds like a, well, a breeze, a light gust of wind that can surely be refreshing during these hot days. Unfortunately, the breeze, if it does come, is extremely warm on hot days, blowing warm air into your face, which might be pleasant but is unfortunately not refreshing.
Anyway. Let's get to the term "Marine." That sounds great too! Even though a marine refers to the naval forces of a nation, here it stands for everything related to the sea or ocean. One must think of the sea, and what could be more beautiful in summer than the sea? Beautiful, blue water in various shades of blue, cooling water that couldn't be more refreshing, and wild waves that you love to jump into. And then you realize that the waves were a bit stronger than expected, and you get pushed into the seabed and dragged along, cursing internally while trying to avoid getting disgusting, salty seawater in your mouth and nose, which inevitably happens, and afterwards, when you finally manage to stand again, you cough endlessly.
And as so often, you learn nothing from it and jump right back into the next wave, so the game starts all over again. And when you eventually leave the water, you might have some reddish, scraped spots, but no one notices that the waves wiped the floor with you, as everyone thinks these are just minor sunburns, ho ho ho :DD
And if you're particularly lucky, they might even look like hickeys (again, ho ho ho :DDD).
Anyway. As I said, the sea is something so wonderful, and I therefore like all scents that remind me of the sea or vacation in general. And I hope that the fragrance smells great, as there are now so many vacation-like scents just like… well, like sand on the beach :D
The scent:
At the beginning, I smell something citrusy, but also something sweet, although both scent notes are difficult to pinpoint exactly. The sweetness could be musk, but the citrus note doesn't smell like bergamot; rather, it has a chemically synthetic "something." Overall, the beginning is totally synthetic, but unfortunately not in a nice way, rather in a way that makes you think it could be one of those quickly made cheap fragrances. Therefore, at the beginning, the scent is neither beautiful, nor pleasant, nor anything else...
Then there are salty notes that are supposed to represent the marine aspect. Yes, the scent is salty, perhaps a bit seaweed-like, and it could have worked with that if it weren't for the extremely poor synthetic impression that simply doesn't appeal.
Over time, the scent also becomes sweeter, which at least somewhat "masks" the less successful synthetic notes (although these become weaker in the base anyway), and the scent becomes a bit more pleasant. This sweetness now comes from vanilla, which is also easily recognizable. You can also detect the coconut (but probably only at the sprayed spot), which enhances the (exotic) vacation feeling.
In the later base, however, it feels as if the synthetic notes become stronger again, as the sweet notes gradually fade away. Although these synthetic notes are somewhat less unpleasant than at the beginning, they still don't smell good. Thus, while the scent is not so horrendously bad that it is repulsive, it is unfortunately still far from being somewhat nice.
The sillage and longevity:
The projection is strong; for a marine summer scent, it is even very strong, so you will smell the fragrance for a while, not just up close.
The longevity is quite long; the scent easily lasts all day and even lingers a bit on the skin after showering.
The bottle:
The bottle is cylindrical and appropriately filled with blue fragrance liquid. The black label looks nice, and the gold-plated/chromed cap is solid and feels high-quality. Overall, it's okay, though typically "niche fragrance" simple.
Oh no... I was looking forward to a nice, marine and/or aquatic scent with this fragrance. And even though the scent does radiate a marine aura through salty notes, it does so in a very artificial way, making the synthetic aspects immediately noticeable and reminding one of less successful fragrances. This doesn't mean that synthetics are bad (as I always mention: it depends on the fragrance, as there are also very well-made artificially scented fragrances), but here it is really poor :DD Especially the top note and somewhat the middle part smell very artificial.
However, the fragrance (towards the end) actually had quite a bit of potential, as in the end the vanilla, for example, doesn't smell bad, and the coconut comes across quite wonderfully (even if the coconut should be weak). These good approaches are overshadowed, in my opinion, by the somewhat overpowering general synthetic aspect... what a shame!
The scent is summery, although the already quite strong salty projection could be overwhelming in the peak summer heat. Those looking for well-made marine or salty fragrances might want to check out Sel Marin by Heeley, or if they want something cheaper, Seathalasso from Douglas's own brand.
In short: From my side, there is no recommendation here! But as always, tastes vary!
