Aqua Pura

I tried to make it as detailed as I could , you probably won't need anything more than this , here we go If I were to explain the smell it is like --- Sea water which contains a lot of salt (so it feels salty , dont take it the wrong way its not bad) + floral and aromatic sweetness to it ,also feels powder and mysky at the same time (mysky leaning), the citruses are light not much so not very noticeable unless you actually try to concentrate. It is very weirdly marine and sweet . Yep that is what it smells like . Its polarizing for sure , not everyone will like it , you may or may not like it , for me its pretty decent. Its very potent so the projection is really good and so is the lasting To test it , sprayed it 6 times (its a decant so from a bottle like like 3 sprays ) on a cotton T shirt , 4 on chest and 1 on each shoulder . Hanged it in the corner of my room and opened the door , the whole house smelt like it. The initial projection is very good for like first 2 hours . Then for another maybe 4 hours it projects good creating a good scent bubble around you and leaving a strong sillage. The lasting , man , Its been like 36 hours and I can smell it within a deet of the tshirt . I believe that the tshirt didn't move or anything just sat there, so while carrying this scent , the performance may vary but its gon be strong. Wearing it right now , I get nose blinded easily especially when its so strong. NOTE - DONT PUT IT ON SKIN BUT CLOTHES , IT IS NOT VERY GOOD AT SKIN CHEMISTRY AND MAY SMELL WEIRD Its really unique, nothing of the sort I have sniffed before. A must try, imo try to decant first. Rating - 7/10 (this is when i kinda like it , perfumes are subjective)

#Smell_RV_n°1 — Aqua Pura (50ml) I have this perfume in a 50ml bottle. When I spray it, it smells fresh like the sea and salt. It feels a little mysterious, because I don’t really know all the ingredients. For me, it smells like salt, sea water, and maybe seaweed. It’s clean, cool, and a bit unusual. Sillage (How strong it smells around you) I used 6 sprays, but I couldn’t smell it much. I asked my friend if he noticed anything—he said no, not during the day or night. I think the hot weather where I live (46°C or 114.8°F) is too much for this kind of light, fresh scent. It disappears quickly in the heat. Longevity (How long it lasts) Even if it’s weak on skin, it lasted better on clothes. After two days, I could still smell it on my t-shirt! So the lasting power is good on fabric, not on skin in hot weather. ⚠️ My Advice If you live in a very hot place, this perfume might not work well. But if you live in a cooler climate, it could smell better and last longer.

very addictive! the scent has a darkness and some moldiness to it, those mixed with the minerality and saltiness, strongly reminds me of my visit to the aquarium. the big fish ponds, the greenery they put in the tanks, the dark underground chambers, those glues that hold small glass aquariums together( those big cylindrical boxed ones that got a pointy long cone like applicator with transparent jelly like glue inside), the chemical agents they use to maintain the room and the big glass fish tanks etc ... . very strong and radiating( one spray on the blotter dominates any scent in my room) and people around me found it very likeable and wearable. Its dirt cheap(50mls), got strong performance and is a very meditative scent, what else do you want??

Sprayed this on my jacket. So many months went by and as i was in class, i guess i was moving my arm around cus i was questioning where i could smell it from, i thought someone had put it on, but then i realized it was actually me. Sounds crazy but im telling the truth. As for scent, to me it smells like a very fresh and comforting masculine scent, its uplifting and relaxing, not in all in ur face and i think very mass appealing.

I got gifted this perfume by my brother. Personally, i like it but what i do notice is that there are problems with sillage, if you want anybody to notice you, you might have to overspray, however if you let it macerate for a while this is definitely a clean, fresh, aquatic (by its name) type of scent that's very easy to wear. Overall, a 7.8/10 scent but compared to megamare, the performance is mid.

Only One spray on my arm at 9 in the morning, I can still get a whiff at 5 in the evening, from the price point ( i got mine like for 12 bucks approx ) its insane ! This perfume is STRONG, don't Overspray ! It cloys real bad, 3 spray is more than enough ! ( I have the early 2024 batch ) It does reminds you of a cough syrup. But i still love it :D

I got it for $13, it smells clean (pure notes) and watery, sea and doesn't bother the nose at all, and to be honest the performance is very strong, I wore it before going to university When I got back I went to sleep and after waking up I still smelled the scent, The value for the price its a real steal

This for the price is a no brainer if you like strong oceanic salty perfumes. Its very manly and elegantly fresh Not a safe blind buy but a 10/10

People ask me anytime I wear this perfume, Very strong and Compliment better.

It’s a decent barbershop-style fragrance, especially considering the very attractive price point. The opening is quite sharp and fresh, with strong notes of lemon and bergamot that hit you immediately. It gives that clean, classic vibe right from the start. As it settles, it becomes smoother and more wearable, but nothing too complex. Performance is where it falls a bit short on my skin; it lasts around 2 hours in the Indian summer, though the sillage is surprisingly strong, and people around you will notice. This was a blind buy for me, and honestly, I don’t feel cheated at all given the price. It’s a like for me, not a love. I might consider picking up another bottle once this one is finished, mainly because it’s easy to wear and doesn’t hurt the pocket.

I have huge. Collection of perfumes of all kind and one thing I can tell you with surety that nothing performs better than that .. it is so so powerfully long lasting .. 02 sprays and you re done for the day.. it registers you’re presence .. people would notice you.. it ll vibrate even in the hottest Indian summer .. haven’t came across such a beast yet . it gets aromatic/ozonic near the drydown.. but use this in moderation.

This is the perfect example why you should not buy based on reviews. Don't let the salt and seaweed scare you off. I cannot see anyone not liking this perfume and comes in a gorgeous little bottle.

1. Unique smell 2 . Very very very powerful 3 . So powerful that can suffocate full house 4 . Smells like the ocean in a good way 5. For the price that's a W for sure

"Aqua Pura" is one of the few fragrances in my current collection that I am finding a bit difficult to wear. I do not dislike it after dry down, but I also do not think it is the ideal or quintessential aquatic/marine scent that I have been seeking. In my quest, I purchased a new bottle as a blind buy alongside "A Chaos in the Ocean" and "Zodiac Solmaris", both by Paris Corner. Of the three, A Chaos in the Ocean seems to be a better representation of what I associate with the ocean and beach on a hot summer day. Oddly, there isn't a huge difference between the two, albeit Aqua Pura is heavier on the musk and lighter on the salt. The musk tends to be almost incense-like, which can be cloying in the heat. To be honest, it takes about two hours of dry-down before I am not embarrased to be around people while wearing it. But after that two hours, it gradually becomes more fresh (I get absolutely no citrus-y freshness on the opening). A Chaos in the ocean has the appropriate balance of salt (from the water and from the skin) that gives me the targeted effect I have been seeking: Fresh, marine-like, and "sun-kissed". Aqua Pura is a great aquatic/marine scent; just not the one for me.

I bought Aqua Pura last year and wasn't a fan of the scent at all as I found it pungent and synthetic. I gave it a few tries but eventually forgot about it around six months ago. Recently, I revisited it and found it had improved significantly, becoming smoother and better, though it still isn't my taste. To my nose, it still has that odd "paint thinner" scent. If you're considering purchasing this, I recommend testing it first and then letting it sit for at least six months. Additionally, this fragrance should not be worn in high heat, as it can become very cloying.

Opens very strong a potent but quick to burn out into a skin scent there is no real depth so it sort of starts off marine and then turns into a sort of rubbing alcohol smell . It does last on clothes i washed them and dried them under the fan and i was smelling that alcohol sort of cleaning smell. I own Atlus too and i feel like Atlus just gets the job done better . My atomizer also randomly failed.

Nose Note #171 Better than the OG. OG is too much in every sense. This one is just perfect for what it is.

Compared to Megamare it's easier to wear but honestly no projection and no sillage after 30 minutes.

It stinks if you overspray my go to is 2 full sprays The marine smell its weird do not blind buy

Smells like nail polish remover to me and a bit of seaweed/old water.

Right after spraying it's like my dad has come back to life for a brief moment and I'm back to being a little girl. He's just showered and is wearing aftershave; he hugs me and his face is soft and smooth, still wet from splashing it in the sink and fragant from the remnants of the shaving foam. The smell of protective masculinity and safety. There's no depth there, only a comforting watery embrace. As minutes pass, it grows sharper and more peppery, the musk and amber start kicking in, and it turns into my ex from high school who was annoying and abusive and wore Bruno Banani Made for Men. Still pleasant, but not as safe anymore; sex has reared its grotesque head, by the time it's finished changing I don't trust men anymore. I'm planning to test in on a current lover in cold weather and see if it tells me something else.

Beginning - weird avantgarde fragrance for painters and silk print designers. Smells "Clean" paint thinner, very nostalgic (my first job) and not adorable. Linear blue fragrance. A six month later - good chypre with smooth chemical notes. Strong, and green. Slightly floral in the heart, ambroxane ending. Masculine, 40+ Sillage good Intensity perfect Fragrance good to "not bad" Not a "megamare" clone, something "outstanding"

I really liked Aqua Pura when I first got it, the opening was fresh, uplifting, and it projected well. But there was a certain note in it that felt a bit uncomfortable. One day, I sprayed it again and that note actually made me feel dizzy. After that even just seeing the bottle on my shelf reminds me of that uneasy nauseous feeling I had and haven’t touched it since

This smells like laundryyyy!!! Finally found the perfect laundry scent. It also smells like (I know it's weird) a baby. You know that baby smell of powderyness? Can't explain it, but this scent is GORGEOUS. It's so not a perfume that it smells like it could be coming out of your skin. Very hard to explain, but this is THE laundry scent people have been after.

Upd. After a year: all of citrus notes are disappeared. Spirit and medicine smelling, almost cough syrup notes are very prominent Musk and amberwood in a base disturbed mine. Very aggressive and rough fragrance

Amazing, this smell like when you are on the beach in the morning 😭😭😭, the Longevity is good, it can more 6++ hour in my skin.. and worth it to buy😁😁😁

I do not know what is happening right now. this is stronger than my bottle of atlas and megara.

smells like cough syrup. nauseating, strong.
