Late summer on a wild beach: blackberry bushes in the coastal dune grass, iodine on the lips, fingertips stained purple. The vertigo of standing on an ocean clifftop, the invigorating north wind. The fragrance unfolds: salted rock, caressed by tangy blackberry and swept by sea spray. Pebbles warmed by the sun, a sap of mineral roses. Deep breaths.

- Aromagroups:

Organic disobedience from Crazy Nose Alessandro Gualtieri. Micodelerio is a fantasy of mushrooms in their natural environment: clustered among the wet soil and decaying leaves of the forest floor. Earthy/sweet beetroot plays against moss and a ticklish saltiness, before woody patchouli asserts itself. The strangeness resolves into a petrichor-drenched amber.

Perfumer: Tomoo Inaba
Rich and gothic Moth starts with a heavy dose of dark spices to jolt your senses before settling into a dusting of honey-sweet rose and powdery florals. Slowly, it tests its wings, taking flight on an exotic journey of nagarmotha, guaiac wood and patchouli. Beneath it all lingers a smoky undertone that serves as a constant reminder to fluttering creatures of the danger in the tantalizing flame.
Entre Ciel et Mer by Pierre Guillaume Cruise/Croisiere £144.00
- Key notes:
- ambergris
- sandalwood
- sea salt
- seaweed
- Aromagroups:
- marine
- woody
A marine poem composed wave after wave…
Entre ciel et Mer (“Between sky and sea”) tells a story of Etesian winds, azure skies and flying over seascapes at top speed…
Icy, soaring and powerful, the first whiff feels as though it had been sculpted out of the Meltem – the north wind that blows over the Aegean Sea, with notes of crumpled, water-splashed leaves and the fruity-aromatic nuances of a lavender, pear and white thyme accord.
The scent’s convincing seawater effect is achieved through a molecular distillation of algae from the Pacific, with iodic and animalic notes of white lichen and ambergris.
The dry, almost mineral facets are balanced out with cedar, moss and sandalwood from New Caledonia.
A strikingly good interpretation of the marine theme.
