By the editors · 2 min readOcean Noir Dive opens with black pepper's dry, prickling heat and clary sage's herbal, slightly musty freshness. The combination reads as aromatic-spicy with a cool edge from the clary sage — neither aggressively marine nor conventionally fresh.
Sandalwood and oakmoss build the base: sandalwood provides smooth woody depth while oakmoss contributes damp, forest-floor bitterness with a faint vintage feel. Together they push toward mossy woody territory.
This is an aromatic-mossy composition with a spicy opening — darker and earthier than a typical aquatic despite the name. The oakmoss gives it a slightly vintage tonality while clary sage and black pepper keep it grounded in modernity. A confident, understated masculine.
