    It doesn’t smell like that typical modern sunscreen, but rather an older one with a very prominent jasmine. It has a powerful opening, but once it dries, it clings to the skin; in my case, it lasts 6-7 hours and a bit longer on clothes. Perfect for summer days, though the price is a bit high for what it is. The scent is a strong blend of jasmine, tangerine, sea salt, sand, and seawater; you can smell everything. I imagine an early morning balcony at the beach with potted jasmine and a sea breeze. It’s floral, fresh, aquatic, and salty. If I had to assign it to someone, it would be Julia from ‘Blue Summer,’ because it evokes that 80s beach vibe and would suit her perfectly. If you like fresh, salty, citrusy jasmine, this will be a hit.

    It doesn’t smell like that typical modern sunscreen, but rather an old-school one loaded with jasmine. It projects heavily right after application, though once it dries down it clings more to the skin; in my case, it projects for about 2 hours and lasts 6-7 hours on the skin, a bit longer on clothes. Perfect for daytime summer wear or daily use, though the price is high for what it is. The scent is jasmine with tangerine citrus and salty notes of sea, sand, and water; you can smell it all. I imagine a beach balcony with potted jasmine early in the morning, with that freshness, sea breeze, and sand smell. It’s floral, fresh, aquatic, and salty. If I had to assign it a character, it would be Julia from Blue Lagoon: it smells like an 80s retro beach vibe, perfect for her. For anyone who likes citrusy jasmine, fresh, aquatic, and salty scents, this is a total hit.

    Honestly, I don’t smell anything beachy, probably because I haven’t spent my life by the shore. At first, I was hugely disappointed; it smelled like chlorine or floor cleaner. Since it was expensive, I told myself I had to use it, and over time I grew to like it. It’s a very unique scent. The beauty isn’t in the opening, which sounds aggressive, salty, and edgy to me. The dry-down notes are sweeter and rounder, where the tangerine really comes through. I recommend it if you like trying out distinct essences. I don’t think it’s for everyone, but once you find its appeal, it becomes very pleasant and interesting. Edit: Smelling it hours after application, I finally understood what it smells like: wet dog. Like when I bathe my furry friend and upon coming out, it smells exactly like that.

    Honestly, I don’t smell the beach, probably because I haven’t spent much time there. At first, I was hugely disappointed because it smelled like bath chemicals, like chlorine or floor cleaner. Since it was expensive and I couldn’t resist, I kept applying it until I got used to it. It’s a very unique scent. The beauty isn’t in the opening, which I find aggressive, salty, and edgy. The base notes are sweeter and rounder; you can definitely taste the tangerine. I recommend it if you like trying different essences; it’s not for everyone, but once you find what you like about it, it’s very pleasant and interesting. Edit: After an hour of wearing it, I finally figured out what it smells like. It smells like a wet dog, like when I bathe my furry friend and take him out of the bathroom; it smells exactly like that.

  5. It’s exquisite. You can smell the scent of sand mixed with flowers, nothing like typical beach fragrances. It has excellent longevity and sillage.

  6. I have it in oil and it smells incredible. That note of beach, sea, and sand absolutely blows my mind. Longevity and sillage are moderate.
