Phew, toilet facilities on the beach (sorry)

I actually thought I had a very average sense of smell. After I was looking forward to the bottling after the descriptions here, I now almost tip over in the back.
Unfortunately, I smell a slightly dirty toilet facility by the sea. I smell salt, sand, chlorine and maybe even some urine scale. So unfortunately I am not within the aquatic romance, but am at the other disgust end. Sorry to all the fans, I begrudge you the pleasure. Who is curious, but should not buy blindly without filling.

Sweet, clean salt

Sel d'Argent is quite an exciting fragrance. He can not be classified quite and leaves various (pleasant and less pleasant) impressions.

The fragrance is based on a flat sweetness of tangerine, orange and grapefruit, which is washed away (as if by the sea) and again. On top of that, a dry salt layer, as well as volatile ylang-ylang floral notes. The salt creates welcome edges.
In the initial phase, Sel d'Argent remains restrained, which is why it might even be too weak for the summer heat for me. Nevertheless, the fragrance could probably be used relatively versatile in spring and summer.
Then a synthetic, slightly biting note appears, which I attribute to the white musk. The scent becomes sterile-clean and so reminiscent of a salty toilet water, which is enhanced by a slight lemon. After this change, I perceive the perfume as intrusive, which almost makes me want to revise my previous assessment.
Finally, after discreet interplay, the orange blossom wins and I'm happy about a pleasant sweet-fruity finish.

I would like to put out at this point actually a recommendation to all who can not be bothered by a synthetic clean note. Because apart from that, here is a really versatile and pleasant sea scent.

Very helpful Review

"Sittin' on the dock of the bay"

Sitting on a quay wall, a small fishing village, the Atlantic coast of France.
The sun is shining, the wind is blowing gently, the sea is crashing in gently bobbing waves against the stone wall below my dangling bare feet. Am a child again.
Sea breeze, salty aerosols wet my skin.
It smells of the sea, of shells, rock and seaweed.
I take a deep breath, stretch my face into the sun, take a walk.
Forget time, no burden, no confinement. Life is beautiful, freedom free.
"Sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time" (Otis Redding)

Salty, mineral aquat

A little Acqua di Parma or Light blue and Ambroxan, Iso E Super and Cashmeran are right up my alley. Nevertheless, salty aquatics alone don't convince me.
Unisex, aquatic / fresh fragrance family, released in 2020. The nose behind it is Anne-Sophie Behaghel. Lasts 7-8 hours, which is great for an aquatic. Pacific Rock Moss smelled very similar on me! Also similar to 40 Knots by Xerjoff. Or Replica Sailing day. It smells great on my colleague.
Yes, that's what Adria smells like, that's what home smells like.
But home also smells like grilled fish and you don't have to smell like that yourself. SEL D'ARGENT smells like the skin after a long swim in the sea and then lying down in the sun to dry off. The sun is strong and the air is humid, salty.
The salty aerosols, the spray, wet stone and wet iron.
I hardly notice the citrusy notes, if at all. Very linear fragrance, the opening smells exactly like drydown. Salty, mineral. Can be worn, just not everywhere. I wouldn't wear it on a date, but rather when traveling, strolling around, etc. A mineral, maritime aquatic. It has something of a shady harbor, with a few rusty ships, iron and salt water.
The name means silver salt, the exact meaning is not clear to me. Today, the light-sensitive silver salts are only used in high-quality films for analog cameras or for X-ray machines. Creation of images, maybe that's the connection?
The scent on the test strip is wonderful, fresh, slightly citrusy, a little light blue, dreamy. I immediately fell in love with the fragrance on the test strip!
Elegant, clean and timelessly modern. A dream.
Perfect summer fragrance for everyone, even those who don't like fragrance.
Then the surprise on the skin.
Salty means showing edge, gray mice can't wear salty, girls can't either, but women over 30 can. I spray the fragrance on a towel every now and then and enjoy a dream fragrance while chilling that I will never own as such. It's sad to smell something so great and yet never be able to wear it.

Gorgeous Salty Marine

Tried a full sample vial on my skin and i think this is really great.

At the beginning it smells very salty and lemony, i really dig it.

The drydown switches into a sexy musky perfume with an aquatic vibe. I think it is really sensual and fresh, modern perfumery, and it sticked on my clothes for several days.

Has a very little similar vibe to the drydown of Pacific Rock Moss but much more salty, price is high for me, i would defo buy a 50ml bottle for 80€ but i wouldn't buy a full 100ml for 175€
