Aquatic and pleasant has always been a contradiction for me, but here it’s resolved.

I feel the same way. This one has the potential to heal my aquatic trauma ;)

Always love juniper, algae is a bit of a thing.

I couldn't agree more. I really love hearing stories about the sea. :)

So far, I have to answer this question clearly and categorically with NO, but I still have a few to go through ;)

A wonderful example of how beautiful aquatic scents can be when you think outside the usual patterns. It's now stirring my desire to have it, but also making me want to put on some floaties and splash around in the Atlantic. 🛟

You’ll have the pleasure soon! 🏖️🌞 I prefer my Azemour, but this one is definitely getting close (and very welcome) with its beautiful images. Lovely house. And a nose I’ll remember from now on.

I'm not really a fan of aquatic scents either, especially algae, which can be very tricky, but it seems to work here.

Thank goodness the seaweed here is just crispy and salty instead of wobbly & fishy.

Sounds interesting, hope it's implemented somewhat naturally.

I think so too. Nothing here smells obviously synthetic, which is also noticeable in its longevity.

That's a really nice one. But I also have a soft spot for Corticchiato's coastal images.

Sounds absolutely wonderful, I would like to immediately have webbed feet and skin made of salt and foam...!

Since I practically still have salt on my skin, your words really resonate with me. I'm usually not a big fan of aquatic scents, but this one seems different.

Translated · Show original

Jeob 1 year ago

I thought of you right away! :) It creates wonderful images; I would almost say it's like an Aquatic for Aquatic skeptics.

Corticchiato is one of my favorite perfumers. And if I could only wear perfumes from one brand for the rest of my life, I would choose PdE.

I just noticed: he lives with you. The PdEs have been very appealing to me so far. Corticchiato's creations seem worth testing every time, and the Belle Rives is great too.

I don't either, but PdE creates such beautiful ocean images that I completely forget to find Aquaten silly.

The quality and blending are usually spot on with PdE, which is why they can create beautiful images.

I'm curious about the rest; so far, the hit rate is quite high.

An aquatic scent that even gives my water-fearing soul a few webbed toes. The mineral aroma of sunlit stones, moss-covered rock crevices, salty seaweed, and frothy surf. Floating on my back in the sea, carried by the waves, with a lemon-yellow sun above me. The wind brings the scent of the maquis, the mainland: immortelle, juniper. Ever since Azemour, I’ve known: Corticchiato can conjure coastal impressions that stray from typical aquatic pitfalls. While Azemour smells like the sea from the mainland, in Scandola, you can smell the mainland while drifting in the sea, letting a second skin of salt crystals form and your hair float like a carpet of seaweed on the water's surface.
