Sea Salt Caramel

Bohoboco Sea Salt Caramel is an absolute masterpiece for gourmand lovers! From the first spray, it envelops you in a luxurious blend of sweet, salty, and creamy notes that feel both indulgent and sophisticated. The opening is an addictive mix of sea salt and buttery caramel, striking a perfect balance between sweet and savory. Unlike many caramel-based fragrances, this one never feels cloying—thanks to the subtle marine freshness that adds an airy touch. As it develops, the caramel melts into a creamy vanilla and tonka bean base, creating a smooth and cozy warmth. The saltiness lingers just enough to keep it intriguing and prevent it from becoming overly sweet. There's also a hint of musk and amber, adding depth and making it feel like a comforting yet refined scent. Performance-wise, this fragrance is fantastic! It lasts 8+ hours on my skin and has a moderate to strong sillage, making it perfect for cooler weather or cozy evenings. It’s both elegant and playful, making it a great signature scent for those who love gourmand fragrances with a twist. If you enjoy fragrances like Mancera Tonka Cola, Initio Side Effect, or Jo Malone Salted Caramel, you will absolutely love Sea Salt Caramel by Bohoboco. Highly recommended!

To a reviewer below saying that this is a very perfumey perfume, I really agree with that idea. This perfume will tell everyone that you are wearing perfume, a good one. This garners compliments and compliments when I wear it. This perfume opens with a grainy concoction of something sweet, marine, sticky... beautiful and unique. Unique is one word to describe this one as the DNA is not something you can come across at any random perfume. The elegant blue juice later adds the agreable impression of how this one smells like you are eating something sweet, joyous, delicious and fell asleep by the shore when the sun just at the right warm temperature... and woke up when it has sunk. The dried sweets now covered in a thin and peculiar sea breeze... I have always been intimidated by sweet perfumes, but this one won't be a big of a deal... I don't know why... This might be strong when you first sprayed it, but I think this will never cloy. The bottle is really nice and the velvet cap really adds the cherry on top.

Had a glimpse of what my good fellow reviewers wrote down here talking about it’s sweetness The sweetness here is so subdued that I can’t imagine them trying something like tobacolor by Dior Going back to the scent it’s a work of art I can’t imagine how hard it was to balance caramel and the saltiness here The salt is a little suffocating sometimes reminds me of sea water most of the time The caramel is in the background as a supportive note although not weak but it doesn’t delve into the sickly sweet territory I was surprised by this creation and I’m about to test as much as I can from the brand having high hopes after this one Performance is very good

I love this. It's salty and elegant and completely unique. The saltiness cuts the caramel sweetness and prevents the whole thing from going full gourmand. This smells like swimming on Cape Cod (or whatever non-tropical body of water you happen to be closest to) on a scorching summer day, then quickly showering off most of the sand and immediately going out for dinner/drinks. Maybe you still have seaweed stuck to you somewhere. There's definitely sand, but most of all, if you lick your arm (you've had QUITE A FEW drinks, ok??), you taste of salt. That's this. It's a masterpiece.

To me this is perfect summer in a bottle. Luxurious grown up seaside lounging. The name reflects the scent to the point and the composition is very well rounded, so that nothing sticks out and blends heavenly with the skin and hot summer. Sweet just enough to be warm and cosy, salty enough to be soft and tender, refreshing and inspiring as the sea breeze. Nothing adolescent about this perfume, pure sophistication. So far it is the best salt caramel perfume I own or have sampled. The longevity is great, even outdoors and 50ml bottle of perfume consentration goes a long way.

I really like this. I'm going to have to do another wear test though. I haven't been to Lush in about nine years, but this perfume smells like walking into their stores from what I remember. The caramel in this smells like a "perfumey" caramel and not a sticky caramel, but both "perfumey" and sticky caramel are great imo. I think I'm going to full size this eventually. Gorgeous bottle design as well.

So happy to finally add this to my collection! I smelled a sample a while back and wasn’t a fan because it had too strong of a cologne smell to me, but I revisited several months later and my mind was completely changed. It smells like a day at the beach in the salty waves with a touch of ocean breeze and a sweetness from the caramel. Definitely my favorite summer perfume

A very beautiful and shiny perfume, glimpses of salty sea breeze and caramel, a strange and strange perfume, when it dries, something else becomes completely volatile and varies from one material to another, an attractive and salty and a little sweet perfume, pink more than a sweet and a wooden salty in the notes of coconut at the beginning with algae

100% a unisex fragrance. Smells of fresh sea or even ocean with a very noticeable touch of salt.And at the back I feel jasmine with caramel.Very fresh,daily wear for summer vibes or even beach.But somehow I feel it will open even better in winter. Lovely and unique scent.

this smells like a salty day at the beach, playing in the waves and then letting the sun dry you off. the caramel adds a subtle sweetness that compliments the salt and sea grass perfectly. i will definitely be buying a full bottle of this!!

I like it, it smell like Lush cosmetics shop. (You know, the scent you smell when you're close to the store but you can't see it yet)

Great scent for a spring/summer day. Unique but pleasant caramel boosted by sea salt sits perfectly on skin.

A unisex fragrance with many facets. It opens with a distinct note of salt and pink pepper, lightly drizzled with lemon juice. After a while, bay leaf and seagrass emerge, bringing a green, aromatic character with an almost seaside feel. There is very little jasmine here, it serves merely as a subtle backdrop, a gentle whisper. In the base, a dry, unsweetened caramel comes through, appearing and disappearing like a glimmer of light on water, tempered by sea salt and resting on a soft woody foundation. This is a gourmand in a completely different guise, more salty and windswept than dessert like. The scent is very pleasant, yet distinctive. When I close my eyes, I see myself barefoot, in shorts and a linen shirt, walking along the shore on a windy, sunlit day. The air carries the aroma of warm sand, salty sea breeze, and caramel drifting from a little food stall by the beach. Longevity is around four hours. The projection is moderate at first, gradually becoming close to the skin, like a holiday memory that lingers just for us.

Sea breeze, salt, seaweed, and a sweet little twist. First things first: this is not a caramel-heavy fragrance, and honestly, that’s a relief. That kind of sugary density would’ve been unbearable in the summer heat. What you get instead is a salty-skin-meets-sunscreen vibe, with just a hint of freshness. It smells like it belongs on a beach towel at golden hour. There is a synthetic plastic note lingering underneath, something like a Barbie doll heads. It’s not very long-lasting, and there’s definitely a youthful, even childish feel to it. Still... I liked it. It’s quirky enough to earn a spot in my collection. A warm, salty sea breeze hits my face. My dad is blowing up my floaties while my mom smooths sunscreen over my back. I bring the vinyl to my nose: that faintly sweet, synthetic smell. Then I fling my sandals aside and sprint straight for the water... Tag(s): sunscreen, salty, sweet, vinyl, barbie doll head

This is definitely my favorite of the perfumes in the discovery set. It's light and sweet, but not overwhelmingly sweet; I definitely get the sea salt note. It's not as funky as some others have described, at least on me. I put it on at about 10:30 am and it had mostly faded by 2pm, so not a ton of longevity. Projection is normal, about arm's length, but it's subtle enough that it doesn't get a lot of comments. However, I do notice it on myself throughout the day, and it's nice. Overall, light, sweet, and refreshing. I'd say there's about a 10% chance that I'll find myself thinking about this scent after I've used up my sample and end up buying a full bottle.

It’s summer - but it’s summer by the seaside in Britain with the wind whipping your hair and salty sea air invading your nostrils. It’s soft and airy, lightly floral and aquatic, no harsh screechy notes here. The cedar is a nice contrast to the caramel which to me only comes out gently and on the dry down. Fresh, office friendly, a little bit different to other summer salty gourmand offerings. If you’re looking for a sugar bomb this isn’t the one. If you’re looking for something that stands out without shouting this is perfect.

I wish the ingredients were more qualitative in this, because it's not a bad smell. Definitely unisex, I don't see any gentleman having this as their masculine signature scent. It reminds me quite a lot of JPG Le Beau Paradise Garden. Great to wear at the beach when trying to act all playboy with the ladies.

The opening is kinda chemical, smells like what I imagine perfumed lake frogs would smell like. The dry down however smells soo good and musky sweet, like pure comfort so I bought it in spite of the first notes. Also doesn't smell like anything I’ve smelled before so that’s a plus.

This an interesting combo of scents. Like eating salty caramel chews on the beach. Surprisingly more marine/aquatic than I was expecting. The caramel is apparent, but not overly sweet. I would also consider this unisex, but masculine leaning.

Jasmine-forward, slightly salty/citric and creamy/sweet. It’s fresh and clean, not gourmand as the notes and name might have you believe. It’s a pleasant, feminine-leaning floral scent, but nothing groundbreaking imo.
