DUNE ROAD

I love Min NY house and its strange creations! Dune Road is a unique smelling, unisex, warm weather daytime scent with dominant grass & seaweed submerged in sea salt and driftwoid with a beautiful vetiver drydown. I also get ozonic notes and cucumbers which blends wonderfully with the rest notes. I get also faint wormwood, noticeable musk and traces of cedarwood. With a few words, crisp ocean breeze with cucumbers! It feels almost artistic as many MiN creations. Performance is moderate overall. It slightly reminds me Bond No 9 Wall Street but Dune Road is totally safe, inoffensive, smoother and totally wearable. I wish it had the same performance as Wall Street. Update After trying it multiple times I took the decission not to buy it even if I loooove its strange freshness due to limited sillage/projection. On my skin Dine Road lives for about 6-7 hours as a skin scent with dominant vetiver but it doesn't projects. If it was a moderate I'd buy it on the spot. Nevertheless I still love its smell.. top shelf stuff.

A beautifully blended and layered fresh marine fragrance. While it opens with a burst of cool cucumber (at least to my nose), it later develops with a refreshing yet sublte pallette. So many of the notes (absinthe, cardamom, salt, seagrass, vetiver etc) seem to blend to an almost indistinguishable level giving shimmering, luxurious, sea side summer vibes. As it dries down further you get more of the driftwood and algae notes, becoming a more heavy and dusky beach in the late, breezy afternoon. It defs has an early 90s fresh, throwback feel but with more luxury bespoke and sometimes unexpected components, especially the absinthe, which seems to linger and lift the whole affair throughout.

Many perfumes out there are trying to dramatize a moment in a specific place or time. But the successful ones are very few and Dune Road is one of them for sure. This fragrance is right to the point; a scent of humid seaside and its salty breeze. Wet wooden deck and seaweed. Dune Road is very moist and fresh. It has a kind of salty sour smell. Reminds me of an algae salad I ate in a Japanese restaurant once. Not many people want to pay $240 for such a perfume that doesn't get many compliments I suppose. But I don't understand the low rating of this artistic fragrance! A realistic scent of seashore. Unique and suitably wearable.

Woooaaaahhhh. Just bought this because i love it :-) I clearly see non declared notes here. Most prominent, the cucumber. Smells reaaaaaally aquatic, very cucumber-ish, with a sea breeze background. Has a similar vibe to “un air de bretagne” but without citruses and with a lotta cucumber. I would describe it quickly as a cucumber with ocean breeze perfume, with a very slight latex background. Love it.

Thus cologne is very unique. I appreciate when a fragrance takes you on a journey to something new and different. Imagine walking on a beach after it rains. You can smell the salty water from the waves. The breeze starts to come in from the east after the rain storm. I can smell some type of tree or bushes in the background. This last a very long time. I can still smell this after 8 hours.
