What does Sea Foam smell like?

In the top, laurel and bergamot bring a green, citrusy freshness alongside the marine notes. The heart of fig leaf, gaiac wood and fucus absolute grounds that freshness in a green, woody layer. Sandalwood, vetiver and sea salt lead the base, while ambroxan and driftwood finish it with a lightly sweet, synthetic sheen.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters recommend it for summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. Masculine and feminine votes are level, so it sits comfortably between the two.
