By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit opens with a sun-bleached citrus flash that feels more dried peel than juice, immediately salted by the marine whiff of ambergris. The heart folds orange blossom’s faintly suntan-lotion sweetness into the ambergris, creating a salty-skin accord that recalls warm beach rocks at low tide. Benzoin in the base steers the composition away from full aquatic freshness, lending a mild caramel glaze that lingers close like salt crystals on forearms. Projection stays within arm’s length for roughly five hours, perfect for casual summer days when you want the memory of sea air without announcing it across the room.
