By the editors · 2 min readA bright ginger-melon-lime opening laced with pomegranate and orange sets a juicy, slightly spicy aquatic tone from the first minute, more crystalline than tropical.
The heart is the centrepiece: sea salt with iris, an unusual pairing that gives the composition a mineral, slightly powdery cool-wave character. The iris adds a rooty cool whisper that cuts the salt's marine sharpness.
The drydown is vanilla and patchouli, with the vanilla rounding the salt into a soft, slightly creamy close and the patchouli adding a quiet earthy depth. The overall reading is a fresh aquatic with a salty-iris signature and a soft gourmand-earth close, breezy and modern.
