Seawater

Seawater is a complex, briny scent that captures the essence of the ocean. It evokes the salty tang of crashing waves, the mineral-rich aroma of seaweed, and the fresh, ozone-like quality of sea air. This note is often extracted from marine sources or recreated synthetically to mimic the multifaceted character of the sea.

Seawater notes evoke a sense of refreshment, cleanliness, and rejuvenation. They can transport the wearer to a tranquil, coastal setting, evoking feelings of relaxation and freedom. Fragrances featuring this note are well-suited for warm weather and casual, outdoor occasions when one wants to feel invigorated and connected to nature.

Seawater is commonly used as a top or middle note in fragrances, providing a refreshing, aquatic quality. It is often paired with other marine notes like algae, kelp, or ambergris, as well as green, citrus, or floral accords to create a sense of freshness and vitality. Seawater notes are particularly prevalent in oceanic, marine-inspired, and 'blue' fragrances.
