Zeitgeist

A deep and smooth ambergris, green, aquatic, marine (non-fishy), beachfront slightly salty & slightly sweet scent profile and it's attractive. It is what I would image for a very high quality sea weed that came out of deep ocean to smell like. There is simply no fishy smell at all and has this "aquatic" feel to it that I just can't describe that I'm not familiar with. Interestingly Sophisticated. The ambergris does a good job of smoothing out the ingredients in one go. Silage and performance is slightly above average. Unisex kind. Absolutely beautiful scent profile. So far from J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin line this is the one i want to wear for me personally. I just love this take. Edit: after the sample I got me the bottle, meanwhile the scent is awesome the bottle is insanely small even for 50ml of edp...., but can't complain since I got what I wanted and I'm content with that (except the bottle size). Also I have discovered my summer signature combo by adding a layer of linear orange citrus (monotheme venezia), I'm going to sooo enjoy this over the summer. Edit#2: this used to be my signature scent until I met costal veil by pineward, a literal cold coastline in a bottle. Now this is a second.

Beautiful and sophisticated marine. I had not read notes and would never considered this to have marine aspects because my avoidance of male blue scents is based on dislike of popular feshie/aquatics; this is not that. For myself this is a good intro, to a darker marine. I love it on my partner and I find it very attractive on him, lots of neck nuzzles. Very deep with green but comforting Amber too. Longevity is there but as a skin scent only. Its depth is quiet. This brand makes some serious quality perfumes. Even if I have not loved every one they have been interesting and varied.

I am the only one on esrth who loves this fragrance :-) This is reaaaaally blue and green, like summer rain in a green landscape above the atlantic ocean. Wonderful!

Quite distinctive (though maybe not even that much), but not unpleasant. Top notes: almost floral/white for the first few seconds, before landing on a sort of grayish/salty/animal amber blend. It smells a little bit like sea air (albeit synthetic), yes, with that light background of something pleasing to the mind, a little bit like the visual pleasure of the chalk cliffs in Normandy (both solid and mysteriously airy), even when it's 10°C and you're walking around in that drizzle straight from the Underworld. On the other hand, this seems to be a rather successful use of that funny seaweed note in perfumery (one that sometimes quickly turns into a disaster). I have a rather watery vegetal aspect, interesting. It's airy and contemporary, and I'd be curious to smell the historical version.

I was excited to try this because there was a warmth to it on the test card, but sadly that evaporated very quickly, making it not for me. That said, it’s an interesting scent. Smells like a tryst in a shipyard; there’s a sexiness to it, but in a functional sort of way. I smell salt, boats and wet wood, largely clean but with an underlying note of grime, almost like petrol. That’s not a bad thing, though—that’s where the sexiness comes from!
