What does Sea Island smell like?

It opens cool with mint, kelp and bergamot. Ylang-ylang, rose and rosemary then bring a floral, slightly spicy softness to the heart. The base of algae absolute, patchouli and Mysore sandalwood settles into a woody, powdery and creamy finish.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Voters place it in daily and leisure wear, and also for nights out and business. As a unisex scent it sits comfortably on men and women alike. Parfums de Marly Darley and Guerlain Embruns d'Ylang have a close profile.
