Megamare Orto Parisi 2019
3
The true strength of the ocean
It was my first perfume from the Orto Parisi line, behind Orto Parisi there is the famous "the nose", Alessandro Gualtieri, father of another perfume line, Nasomatto, and when we talk about Nasomatto to those who don't think Black Afgano? If Nasomatto is now a consolidated reality in the world of perfumes, why make a second line? Actually I would like to make a premise, I have smelled all the perfumes of Gualtieri and according to my line of thought, The Nose wanted to divide two types of perfumes, the Nasomatto, more complex essences, slightly more intimate, introspective with more facets, while with Orto Parisi wanted to streamline the list of ingredients, make them more minimal and modern, but with monster projections, more extreme and reminiscent of a smell rather than a perfume, and Megamare, in my opinion, is the one that comes closest to everyone. this philosophy.
When he talks to you about a perfume, a nice fresh perfume immediately comes to mind, suitable for hot days, Megamare is not like that, it is not a summer perfume, for my taste, it has some marine notes on opening but then turns on woody instead of musky / clean as thousands of other perfumes do, it tends to be warm, and I find it more suitable for spring or autumn, at most I would use it on summer evenings
As I mentioned before, the opening is a vigorous combo of aquatic notes and licorice, a real explosion, it already makes you understand that it will be a perfume that will accompany you throughout the day.After a few minutes the saline notes fade and it begins to come out the woody notes, wet and moldy woods, left in the sun, overdose of ambroxan and calone, after hours you can still smell the scent on the skin, you are left with that oxidized, metallic and mineral sensation, even slightly powdery, scratchy saline and, pass me the term, tending to dirt.
Megamare is a fantastic creation, an aquatic-mineral-woody out of the box, in the past someone has tried it (Mineral Oud tells you something?) But Megamare is the one who, with without many preambles, has been able to combine the two notes and makes power , his workhorse. I don't like portraying perfumes as if they were a poem, I absolutely don't see Vikings, beaches, wars, swords, and so on, but Megamare is a sensation for me, a mini sensory experience, no travel, it is a memory imprinted in your mind, it is a picture that excites you, that can upset or relax you, fascinates me.
It is certainly not an elegant perfume, but it didn't even want to be, if I close my eyes while I smell this fragrance, I am reminded of the smell emanating from a cliff covered with musky algae, after being overwhelmed by a sea wave, the power of the initial wave, and the vapor that emanates from the moss stone as the Sun dries it.
A strong, powerful, long-lasting, cheeky, aggressive, masculine perfume. It is not a perfume that has to be liked, it is not suitable for all contexts, but it is a smell, it has character, you must have a certain personality to wear it otherwise you won't wear it. the perfume is he who wears you.
