What do reviewers say about North Atlantic and Sarmassa?
Most aquatics want to be liked. This one doesn't care. It's sea water distilled into a fragrance, capturing the smell of standing at the shore and feeling that bracing cold air.North Atlantic
Sarmassa is that rare scent that manages to smell both rustic and refined at the same time. The cedar-citrus opening is honest, the honey-vanilla heart is cozy without being cloying, and the talcum.Sarmassa
