Dear Sedley
You do exactly what you were born to do in this world. You smell fresh, aquatic, spicy. You are not trying to reinvent or redefine this genre of aquatics; instead, you fit into a variety of alternative scents within this segment. A segment that seems overcrowded and these days only justifies its existence through animalistic "aquatics" with brutal longevity.
In my opinion, an aquatic scent does not need to last 72 hours, because that is not what it is made for. An aquatic scent is made for summer, for warm days. On those days, you should primarily do one thing: Refresh! And do so lightly and casually... And you do that incredibly well! You start confidently, fresh, and strong, just as I want to feel as a man after a morning shower in summer. Some may call you a "shower gel scent," but who wouldn't want to smell like that? Who wants to shower in summer with Layton, Carlisle, or Habdan?
You do fade over time, but you do not completely disappear. You accompany your wearer confidently throughout the day, and yes, others benefit from you too. Just not in an "in your face" manner, but with a lot of understatement. Your notes create an incredibly harmonious drydown for me. A bit fluffy and light but consistently assertively fresh and spicy.
The evening is not entirely your time; you need the sun to shine.
Your price is steep, and there are many good alternatives. But it is your distinctive scent that ultimately sets you apart from the competition - at least for me.

I really like it too and can totally see myself wearing it on warmer days. I also can't understand the weak longevity. On me, it lasts a good 6 hours, which is perfectly fine for a freshie.
Sure, there are similar scents, but there's no other Sedley.
