The Strength Of The Ocean

Like many others, I also stumbled upon JF at the beginning of my perfume journey.
Often, I ordered one or another bottle after watching his videos, such as Versace - Eau Fraiche or Mont Blanc - Legend Spirit.
What particularly stuck in my mind was that the fragrances were at most rated as adequate afterwards.
During this time, the scent Aqva Amara by Bulgari was often promoted, which, according to his statement, smells of the strength of the ocean.
I took this statement as an incentive to find an aquatic fragrance that puts everything else in the shade.
I slipped through countless perfumeries, but with moderate success.
Often, I had the impression that the aquatic fragrances were very synthetic, with Megamare by Orto Parisi being particularly noteworthy as a chemical club.
One day, when I came to the realization that I wouldn't find what I was looking for, I entered a perfumery that also sold TF.
As is often the case with TF, crowdpleasers like Tobacco Vanille, Tuscan Leather, or Oud Wood were predominantly offered.
When I briefly saw the bottle Oud Minerale, despite my heavy expectations, it piqued my interest.
When I sprayed it on my wrist, I was love-struck!
It exceeded my expectations of finding a perfect aquatic fragrance.

Now, when the JF quote "The Strength of the Ocean" comes to mind, it is definitely Oud Minerale.

100%. Der Duft ist für mich der Inbegriff von Ozean. Ich mag einfach alles an ihm.

Du hast sowas von Recht! Wenn ich bei diesem Duft am Zerstäuber rieche, muss ich sofort an Urlaub am Meer denken. Einmalig!
