Real talk
This is not a sunshine-and-sand fragrance. It leans hard into the tense, pressurized side of marine, with myrtle liqueur and ambergris giving it an almost astringent edge that will divide opinion.Black Sea
The vinyl note is the line. Some people catch leather and mint. Others catch skin and sweat. It leans into intimacy rather than away from it, and that either works for you or it doesn't.Friction
