About this deal
This has after the initial spray on drydown a not overly strong sweet seaweed with a deep wood and orange and lavender seamlessly and smoothly mixed just above patchouli giving a sort of damp cardboard effect, all the while a touch of salt sits on top.
This has a stronger seaweed smell to the OG as well, reminding me of hard boiled eggs and that green slippery stuff that clings to the big rocks at the beach during low tide that the little crabs crawl over. Anyways, this is an aquatic/marine with the neroli note giving it a "fresh laundry" scent if that makes sense. I love this understated complexity and that's why this is my pick of all the marine/aquatic scents I've tried so far. Once Bvlgari Aqva Pour Homme EDT has reached its full dry-down, it can be summarized as a moderate projection, oceanic (seaweed), and woody fragrance with some leathery, and soft green and floral accords. Aqua di Bulgari è una fragranza che sa di libertà e di freschezza, e che regala un’esperienza olfattiva unica e coinvolgente.
why pay more for a fragrance that you cant create memories to hold onto with or introduce to our little ones? Ozony and seaweedy notes dominated in the top phase, but they lingered throughout the middle and base phase as well, giving this perfume a steady, seductive, mouth watering blast of freshness.
I've tried this one and aqua marine and I liked them both at first but the synthetic ingredients really turned me off to aqua marine.
I can see / smell the resemblance to Oud Minerale, but it's missing the salty sting from Oud Minerale which is what makes Tom Ford's fragrance unique.
