Marina Notes

1 perfumes

Marina notes evoke the crisp, bracing essence of the coastline, characterized by a distinct saline minerality, wet driftwood, and the sharp, ozonic clarity of sea spray. Belonging to the Aquatic olfactory family, this note captures the cooling sensation of a breeze rolling off the Arabian Gulf. It pairs naturally with bright bergamot to accentuate its citrusy facets or with white musk to smooth out its raw, salty edges. In the context of the Gulf’s sweltering climate, marina notes are essential for providing an immediate sense of relief and refreshment. Regional perfumers often utilize this accord to modernize traditional compositions, balancing the heavy, resinous presence of oud or amber with a clean, airy lift that remains sophisticated and wearable throughout the hottest summer months.
