By the editors · 2 min readSea of Light opens with a bright citrus-green spray of petitgrain and lemon — clean, slightly woody, and immediately refreshing. There's a sharpness to the top that keeps it from feeling soft or sweet.
As it settles, peach and black currant push forward, bringing a juicy, slightly tart fruitiness. The contrast between the brisk citrus opening and this warmer, riper fruit heart gives it mild but noticeable movement.
White musk in the base keeps everything close to the skin, light and transparent. This reads as a warm-weather skin scent — easy to wear, modest in projection, suited to casual or outdoor settings rather than anything requiring weight or depth.
