Heir to our popular Tropica, Aquatica is a celebration of the tropical coastlines of the oud-producing countries of the world.
The opening is bright and fresh, where tropical and citrus fruits drift on a soft ocean breeze. Shimmering ambergris conjures images of shell-strewn beaches, crystal-clear waters, and ribbons of seaweed dancing beneath the waves.
A generous dose of frankincense illuminates the sparkling facets of the oud and the shimmery Irish white ambergris, while the oud lends depth and presence to the more marine nuances of the brown and grey ambergris notes. Precious rose petals adorns the composition, evoking the quiet romance of a seaside rose garden kissed by sea spray.
Aquatica has been crafted to unveil its oud character gradually, making it effortlessly approachable even for those new to oud. As the bright opening fades, the fragrance deepens into a richer, woodier heart before settling into a lingering drydown of refined oud entwined with the sweet, salty allure of ambergris.
Breezy, citrusy, and oceanic, Aquatica is the perfect fragrance for days when you crave something lighter and more refreshing, yet cannot do without your daily dose of oud.
Spritz some on and let it carry you to sunlit shores, warm ocean air, and endless horizons.
The best imagery I can give for this
fragrance is to imagine you are standing at the
crack of dawn on a warm yet cool morning in
the forest.
A slight breeze occasionally washes over you. You can
smell the forest, the pine and cedar trees all around
you. There is a freshness in the air, warm but crisp.
This isn't a place to just stand around (though really
you could all day) so you start on a leisurely stroll
through the woods. Take your time, there is no rush
here.

I really like Aquatica, I was pretty sure I would, and
it did not disappoint. It is one of those scents that
have a great WOW factor right off the bat, really made
me smile when I first opened the bottle.

Thank you so much for the new sample scent you sent
me! I received my package this week and was so
pleasantly surprised by the addition of the new Aquatica
and Japanese scent! Of course, I tested it out
immediately and much to my surprise, I am in love with
the new Aquatica despite telling myself that I wasn't
going to love it. You are right in that it still
retain the same feel, in the same family. I smell
the woody notes that I love in Tropica and I also smell
the ambergris that you mentioned. This is one of
the few aquatic scent that doesn't make me feel
nauseous. There is warmth in this aquatic scent
and I wonder if it is the oud that is keeping it
grounded and warm.

FYI, Aquatic has REALLY grown on me! For some
reason, it has been my "go to" scent lately, I think
because it's so much more "wearable" whether to the
office or wherever, and by that I mean I can get an
oud-like experience without feeling like I'm affecting
others around me.

Standing in the woods on a cool fall morning, leaves in
brilliant colors in the trees and on the ground around
you as you stand on the porch of a secluded wood cabin.
Somewhere in the distance, someone is burning fresh
wood, not too close, but enough to catch the scent on
the wind as it mingles with the early morning smells of
the pines, cedars, and the damp leafy tundra. Reminds me
of the smells of the forest whn we go up to Gatlinburg
and the Biltmore when the leaves change in Late
October.

It certainly has a very fresh smell to it that I think
makes it very office safe without leaving any of the oud
experiences behind. It's very energetic from the onset,
fresh and lively, with a little zesty zing to it and a
noticeable addition of frankincense. It's hard to
describe what I was smelling but I found it very
enjoyable and very different from any of the mukhallats
I've tried so far.
