The man and the sea #04 - Autumn days at sea
Spring and summer - almost all perfume users will agree that the warm and sunny seasons are those for aquatic fragrances. Sea in winter may well be successful, but an autumnal fragrance? I have never come across that before. Until today.
Mare Mosso starts with creamy fresh aquatic. The short citrus flashes quickly disregarded, warm tones develop on the skin. Delicately ambered, almost vanilla-benzoin-like spices. Sweet woody ouzo and thus aniseed, which stands clearly above other fresh green notes, of which I only perceive little. Caraway (the classic, not cumin) and other earthy spices ensure that the fragrance gets warmer and warmer. Soon this impression is also perceptible from a distance and not only directly on the skin. In this combination the creation of M8 Moods makes me think of autumnal days. Fog over brown-coloured forests and villages, that sea is grey, the dishes in the homely kitchen become more hearty.
As time goes by, a similarity with Salina or Acqua di Sale can no longer be denied. The salty, salon-like and slightly algae underlay is clear, but the ambered warmth and spices nevertheless create a new interpretation of the theme, which no longer has too much to do with the actual scent of the sea. Despite the exciting combination, Mare Mosso and the other two fragrances are too clearly creamy-sweet for me to enjoy them permanently.
Durability and Sillage are pleasantly designed for a whole day. With this fragrance I test after "Lemoncello" - which really inspired me - the second fragrance of the brand which I find at least successful.
