Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.
On finding out that Olivier de Kersauson is a Breton yachtsman, it all makes sense: the name and the blue bottle ... even the oval motif looks like a boat.
And surprise surprise! - the 'fume is aquatic.
This is basically another Cool Water clone, but Nejla Barbir (who worked on Dune) did something a bit different. The basic structure is there - marine crab apple, but it's lighter and quite spiky, dusty-woody-sweet.
Now, in 1997, doing any kind of Cool Water thing was totally passé. But the spiky wood angle seems to be ahead of its time (1 Million – 2008, Bleu de Chanel EdT – 2010, Invictus – 2013 etc) and that makes Latitude Sport feel like an early bend in the road that leads from Cool Water to Sauvage.
Speaking personally, I think this particular route is a short one, and downhill all the way.
