Sapore di Mare (Brezza di Mare)

If you don't like aquatics try this one anyway. It smells incredible! It's very refreshing with a beautiful watery note that does not smell like cucumber nor melon (although I believe the company lists watermelon as a note, and it's not listed here). It's so much more than aquatic. It's lightly floral, a tad salty like sweaty skin, and has a sweet vanilla base note, which is not too strong. There's just nothing else like it. Conjures a dip in the cool sea on a sweltering hot day. I'm not an aquatics fan, but when it comes to that category, Brezza di Mari is The One. Disclosure: I wrote this some time ago, but I want to add that I now own a webshop aveparfum.com and stock now this gorgeous fragrance.

I've had this one for a couple of months now. Glad it was finally added to the database. This is a GREAT summer scent! The notes also include bergamot, lemons, limes and a touch of watermelon. I also detect a bit of coconut, even though it's not listed in the notes. It truly is a "sea breeze" I am loving this one!

A light-hearted, refreshing fragrance that sings of summertime and long, lazy days.Not too sweet, very refreshing. No one does hot-weather fragrances as well as the Italian houses.Silage is moderate, longevity about 8 hours

Very prominent watermelon. I also thought I detected some frangipani but it's not listed. This is the smell of Hawaii to me...even without the frangipani! Very nice fragrance :)

Dry, salty with a slightly sweet herbaceousness and citrus freshness. Lasts nicely but does not project very far. "Coastal" is the perfect word for it. I'm not usually a fan of marine scents because they smell synthetic to me but this smells so natural and evokes wonderful summer memories. Feels like sipping a fresh margarita - lime garnished and salt rimmed- and watching the sinking sun after having spent the whole day on the beach - the ocean water dried off your skin but the lingering salt still there, and maybe a bit of sun-warmed sand still between your toes. Extremely reminiscent of California beach late summer evenings.
