Cold saltwater over dark wood.
Shiso, fennel, boxwood and Timur pepper open green and faintly saline, coleus, rhododendron, laminaria and mimosa bring the marine heart, and seaweed, ambergris, violet leaf, patchouli and Thai oud take it somewhere deeper and earthier.
Perfumed by: Michael Nordstrand
Released: 2025
KSI Take: Marine fragrances usually mean fresh and forgettable. This one goes under the surface instead, and the seaweed and oud in the base give it a weight the genre almost never has. Not a crowd pleaser, which is the point. Cool weather and people who want to be asked about it.
