Waves
The Scent
Warm memories of being by the ocean—fresh air, and warm sand underfoot—sea salt, dune grasses and driftwoods mingling in the light breeze.
Perfect for day dreams, bathrooms, and those in search of seaside-cabins-upon-the-city.
The Memories
“A trip to Sicily, a volcanic island off the Umbrian peninsula. In some areas the sand is black from lava rock. Lying in the sea hours go by, and it's only the setting sun that reminds me to go home.”
“In early fall I travel to Province Town, which lies at the end of Cape Cod. The Summer crowds are gone, but nature remains. The air is light, crisp and already anticipating the coming cold. There's always one last warm summer day though.”
Key Notes
Sea Salt: A savory note that adds intrigue to the marine notes, providing an unusual and arresting effect.
Galbanum: Bracing bitter green scent coming from the resin of a tall grass growing in warm climates.
Seaweed: Algae note with savory, marine, grassy aspects, that adds a pinch of real “ocean-ness”.
Star Anise: Somewhat bitter, adds some sharpness to help bring out the more subtle watery notes.
Calone: Delicate, light and airy marine note that feels somewhat like the watery part of watermelon or melon.
Cyclamen: Very light, watery, almost transparent note that brings lightness and freshness.
You are floating, water-cradled,
suspended and dreaming;
a glittering sun-lit scatter of diamonds
in the peripheries of your vision.
Briny air and tiny lapping wavelets,
sunlight rippling across and under
and through the water
and your skin and the sand beneath you,
sea and sky and self in joyous conspiracy.
