A fresh marine oud from Swiss Arabian that leans salty, woody, and office-friendly.

Scent Journey
The opening is led by sea notes, Italian bergamot, and black pepper. Expect a salty-citrus sparkle with a light peppery edge. The marine note is the headline, but the bergamot keeps it clean and bright rather than heavy.
As the top notes settle, geranium, Mahonial, Petalia, and Rosyfolia move forward. This is where the fragrance becomes more floral and rounded. The rose-like facets are present but not overpowering, helping bridge the fresh opening and the woody base.
The drydown is built on an oud accord, Akigalawood, cypriol oil, and amber. It is woody, slightly spicy, and warm, but it stays relatively clean. The oud is an accord rather than a heavy natural oud statement.
Performance Dashboard
Estimated 6–8 hours; low-confidence because structured longevity voting data is not yet available.
Moderate; sits closer to the skin after the opening.
Moderate, based on limited user reviews; not a room-filling scent.
