Seeing the Sea
After half a night and half a day of travel, we can see it for the first time. The sea. Somewhere between Montpellier and Perpignan, it’s time. It sparkles, first just a hint, then we see it clearly. We are almost there. The anticipation for the upcoming vacation grows. We take one last break at a rest area on the highway. The typical Mediterranean scents of the trees, shrubs, and herbs surround us. In the distance, I think I can already smell it, the sea. The air seems to shimmer with a gentle saltiness, but it is merely a hint of a sea breeze. So beautiful.
It is extremely rare for me to find a scent with sea and salt that I actually like. Usually, I can smell Calone from a kilometer away. But Lyn Harris wouldn’t be Lyn Harris if she didn’t manage to interpret this theme with her fine, classically influenced style. So here we have salt without Calone. The salt can be detected in the proximity to the sea. Salt presents a Mediterranean landscape, France, Spain, or Italy, depending on your taste. There are no limits to the imagination here. The scent is characterized by herbs and spices, rockrose and sage. It just fits perfectly for me.
In the base, I catch a whiff of the divine Lyn Harris amber, and in the air lingers a hint of a nostalgia aquatic that isn’t one. Suddenly, I think of Horizon by Guy Laroche. Lyn's fondness for classics strikes again here, even though the scents only resemble each other distantly.
Salt is one of her slightly stronger compositions. Still, I’m quite sure that it would probably be too quiet for Mr. Polly. Because there is never any shouting here by the sea. A scent of silence, like so many from Mrs. Harris. And that is exactly what makes it enchanting.
Many thanks to Violett for the opportunity to test this. It immediately reminds me of our trips to Spain. Next year again.
