Megamare

Nuclear - one spray is basically enough. The issue is that I cannot figure out if this is genuinely aquatic or just straight up musk. I might opt for LP's Black Sea instead

As if a ship with oriental spices had crashed against the rocks of a raging sea. Incredibly loud, conspicuous, and long-lasting. I like that very much.

To be honest: Orto Parisi Megamare is the scent equivalent of a sledgehammer. Anyone looking for a relaxed, light summer aquatic here will be ruthlessly run over. The performance is absolutely insane – the stuff sticks to the skin for days, survives every wash, and radiates so forcefully that a single spray completely takes over the room. But that is exactly where the double-edged sword lies for me: this brutal force consists of such a massive overdose of synthetic ambroxan and musk molecules that it quickly drifts into piercing, chemical headache territory if you overdose even slightly. It smells of ice-cold seawater, salty seaweed, and almost metallic depth – fascinating and unmistakable, but also extremely exhausting and perceivable from miles away. A real monster that you have to love or hate, but definitely not a scent for the nice everyday office life.
