What does Sel Marin smell like?

It opens with the bright citrus of bergamot and lemon. In the heart, iodine and algae bring a salty, green, aquatic edge. Cedar, birch and vetiver form a woody, slightly spicy base underneath.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Most voters find it masculine, though it works as a unisex scent. Creed Himalaya and Monotheme Aqua Marina have a close profile.
