By the editors · 2 min readLemon and pink pepper open with a sharp, salted brightness — citrus that feels coastal rather than juicy, pepper keeping things dry. The sea salt heart is the structural core here, pushing the marine-salty character forward so the composition reads less like a perfume pyramid and more like a single coherent snapshot of cold ocean air.
Vetiver grounds the base with an earthy, smoky undertone, and vanilla adds a thin layer of sweetness that softens the salt without dissolving it.
The overall effect is spare and direct: salty, lightly spiced, faintly sweet at the edges. It wears best in warm weather and projects moderately before settling into skin.
