stormy black sea
I have never had a good relationship with marine perfumes, until I tried Lorenzo's Black sea. It is a perfume that certainly recalls a dark stormy sea, with ozonated, salty hints, but which are accompanied by creamy and floral notes of Orange blossom and Ylang Ylang that give it a nice interesting background, almost a hint of ink, I also hear a chord that reminds me of the smell of mint. The dry down, long and infinite, accompanies us for many, many hours, attracting a lot of attention and compliments.
Definitely a nice perfume to try, I, not seasoning certain fragrances, I consider it easily wearable in all periods of the year.

Well... where do I start with this wonder?
As you spray it, the notes that stand out the most and will stand out for quite a while (say, two hours or so) are the ozone and the bergamot.
It smells, literally, like ozone. Like an ozone cleaning machine like the ones used to be used to put knives in at butcher shops, or the ones used to deodorize large rooms.
This is just the start, as soon as it relaxes a little, the pungent citrus of the bergamot and the salt come out, but not a wet salt like that of the sea, just salt.

After the projection time, which I already told you is spectacular, the sea comes out. Those marine touches, of a huge expanse of water, that smell of salt when you are in the middle of nowhere with a small boat, deep into the sea. All accompanied by something floral in the background, the ylang-ylang suits it perfectly, but for me, the orange blossom goes quite unnoticed.

When it settles, you can still notice the salt, the algae come out, more ylang-ylang and a lot of patchouli, perhaps a bit of that white and somewhat mossy musk. The algae give it an even saltier touch but it is a curious saltiness because if you think of algae, the smell of the beach at low tide quickly comes to mind, those stagnant waters and algae stopped on the shore, but no, it is very clean.

The duration, well, on skin easily +12h and on clothes 2/6 working days nights days rain or wind, I put it on last week on a shirt that I have in the laundry basket and it still gives off the smell of patchouli and seaweed.

The season for this perfume is certainly spring, 100000000000% summer and early autumn, when it still endures that daytime and evening heat. Daytime and also nighttime perfume, it projects a lot with an unusual smell and makes you stand out A LOT among so many Creed Aventus and its imitations and among so much Acqua di Gio.

Its age range of use is obviously for people in adulthood, this does not suit a 20-year-old or younger kid at all, no matter how many boat shoes and dad's Mini Cooper keychain he wears. This is for people in their twenties as far as you want.

You certainly wouldn't wear this to go out to dinner or lunch, this is to stand out, this fills rooms, elevators, dining rooms, outdoors is where it goes perfectly and you don't poison anyone (not even yourself). This is to go out and say "here I am" and even more so because of the peculiar aroma it has.

145€ for 50ml, I would say expensive, but with three sprays it lasts a lifetime so, its price is moderate at the end of the day when you get home and say "damn this still smells like hell"

In short: The sea in a bottle, a sea that deceives by appearing clean at first, but deep and dangerous after a while. A sea that makes you stand out, among the norm, a sea that makes people wonder "mmm what is she wearing smells different and good". A sea that lasts and lasts.

I wish I loved this one...
because it's unlike anything I've smelled so far*. I am reading all the notes, and I am just nodding in agreement, I can detect each top and heart note listed. It doesn't happen often to me. I don't hate it, but there is something off-putting about it, almost to the point of making my stomach churn. I am testing Burberry Hero on my other hand, and I use it as a relief after each time I inhale this curious creature. I think my nose would've loved it if a sweet note had been added or some of the notes were toned down.

Not a blind buy. If you had any doubt whether this smells like a typical marine scent, let me reassure you that it does not. I also don't think it's suitable for every occasion. You will most probably stand out with this scent and its longevity.

Give it a try, definitely.
*I haven't tried Acqua di Sale, which is what everyone seems to compare Black Sea to

Update: 15 hours later, it's impossible to rinse this demon off. I tried a few times, it's still present.

Kein Land in Sicht
Ursprünglich habe ich nach etwas ganz anderem gesucht und bin durch Zufall auf diesen Duft gestoßen. Erster Eindruck: wieder ein Aquat wie viele andere. Relativ schnell wurde ich vom Gegenteil überzeugt. Nach zwei Atemzügen war die Kaufentscheidung getroffen. Irgendwas hat mich gepackt und nicht mehr losgelassen.

Die dunkle, kühle und mysteriöse Note hat mich gefesselt. Sofort als der Duft meine Haut berührte, verbreitete sich ein Statement im Raum. Es ist meiner Ansicht nach nicht mit Düften wie Megamare zu vergleichen. Im Gegensatz zu vielen Aquaten hatte ich zum ersten Mal keine stechende oder salzige Meeresbriese wahrgenommen. Es sind keine kleinen Wellen die auf Felsen vor der Küste aufschlagen oder sommerliche Badetage an der See. Auch keine rostigen Schiffe. Keine eintönige Frische.

Hier ist der Name genau das, was man bekommt. Ein dunkles Gewässer. Weit im Norden. Keine Touristen und fröhliche Ausflüge aufs Meer. Die Nacht ist angebrochen. Die See ist ruhig und im Einklang mit sich selbst. Ein alter Fischer schlürft seinen lauwarmen Tee an Bord seines gut erhaltenen kleinen Bootes. Am Horizont zieht langsam ein Sturm auf. Der leichte Wind streift durch sein Gesicht. Einen Moment nimmt er sich noch. Währenddessen schaut er nach unten und blickt in die unendliche tiefe. Unentdeckt und unberührt. Regelrecht unheimlich aber doch faszinierend zugleich. Obwohl es für ihn eigentlich nichts neues sein sollte, fühlt es sich unbekannt und ungewiss an. Der bedrohliche Himmel spiegelt sich im bleiernen Wasser, das wie Tinte aussieht. Heute sind es keine Fische die vorbeischwimmen. Hier handelt es sich im Kreaturen die man bisher nur aus Büchern oder Aufzeichnungen kennt.
Diese ziehen vorbei und man ist wieder ganz alleine. Der leichte Tee voller Kräuter und Blüten beruhigt die Angst und man gibt der stillen Nacht hin.

Duft 8,9/10
Man muss sich dem Duft wirklich hingeben. Am besten sucht man nicht explizit nach den einzelnen Duftkomponenten. Sie ergänzen sich und bilden gemeinsam ein einzigartiges Erlebnis. Die leicht salzige Kopfnote wird von der hauchdünnen Bergamotte besänftigt. Es ist eine andere Art von frische. Nicht aufdringlich oder scharf.
Relativ zügig entwickelt der Duft sein volles Potenzial und geht in die wirklich holzige, aquatische Richtung.

Haltbarkeit 9,5/10
Einmal versprüht wird man die Black Sea nicht mehr los. Selbst am nächsten Tag merkt man die Auswirkungen des Sturms.

Sillage 9/10
Nicht für jeden geeignet. Selbstbewusst muss man sein. Eine dunkle Aura betritt die Bühne und sorgt für Stille. Man sollte sich seiner eigenen Präsenz bewusst sein.

Flakon 8,1/10
Bleibt der Linie treu. Explizit bei dem Duft unterstreicht der schwarze Flakon die „Black Sea“.
