Ocean of a Midnight Moon

This smells almost like every "blue" designer scent at the moment merged into one. That may sounds like a blessing to some, or really sad for others. I personally love it, sure it's not really innovative, but it makes everything you want as a blue freshie. It has that strong "aquatic" touch from the opening, with a juicy and sharp bergamot, I can smell also some metallic touch from something that could be ambroxan, that note is really piercing and eternal, it never leaves the skin. I smell also a strong herbal and incensy vibe, that fits the name and the colour of the bottle, it really is a "night time" more than a "day time" scent ( it's also perfect for a really hot summer day, but it's more about the vibe of the scent). The fir, mint, leather are indeed present, and give character, spiciness and woodiness to the juice. This indeed smells like you're in the middle of nowhere, on a boat, with the full moon reflecting her lights on the black waves of the sea and on the rocks of a desert island nearby. To sum it up, I'd say this smells like you would blend the bergamot-ambroxan touch from Sauvage, with the "Deep Water" vibe from Bvlgari Aqva, accompanied by the incense note of ADG Profumo. But where these 3 may smell a bit "boring" in the drydown, this one keeps its intensity and its interest, the notes keep to blend in perfectly and it never gets annoying or generic. This lasts for ages and projects really strongly, in fact it performs in both longevity-projection as a winter scent, I'll try this more, but in any case I've never experienced such a strong aquatic fragrance. Might be a bit pricey, but if you consider this one you don't need any other aquatic imo.

This is, without question, my favourite woody fragrance from Simone Andreoli. I’ve tried almost the entire brand over the years, and this one consistently comes out on top. It’s beautifully balanced: polished and composed, yet with just enough edge to give it personality and stop it from blending into the background of my collection. What I love most is its versatility. It feels completely at ease worn day or night, dressed up or down, and it never feels out of place. I’d comfortably call it unisex, though I’ll admit my own tastes skew a little wider than most. The oud is handled with real finesse here, working in harmony with the aromatic elements rather than overpowering them. After five or six hours, it settles into a soft, mellow mélange that lingers close to the skin, quietly confident and endlessly wearable. If I had to recommend a single fragrance from the brand as a blind buy, this would be it. It’s office-safe without being boring, characterful without being intrusive, it has presence, but it isn’t rude. And when my current bottle runs dry, there’s no hesitation: I’ll absolutely be replacing it.

یه عطر با طراوت آروماتیک دریایی، به قدری متعادل که دوست داری هر ثانیه بوش کنی و ازش سیر نمیشی. رایحه اولیش خنک و یخیه با ته مایه ای تلخ، بعد کم کم بیس چوبی ادویه ای اسپایسی را میشه حس کرد. یه تعادل بین حس طراوت و تازگی با گرمی شیرین داره که دقیقا هم نشاط آور و هم آرامبخشه. فوق العاده عطر نرمیه و متعادل، رایحه تقریبا خطی داره و خیلی تغییری نمیکنه. عطر پیچیده ایه، اصلا عطر ساده تک نوتی نیست، بدون اینکه آدم ازش خسته بشه یا سردرد بگیره میتونی ازش پاف زیاد هم بزنی. رایحه ش نافذه و زود از بینی تون خارج نمیشه. عطر شبیه ش کول واتر یا آکوا دجیو جورجی آرمانی هست ولی اینا اون خنکی توشون غالبه در حالی که میدنایت هم شیرین تره و هم چوبی، یه شباهت هایی به کیرید اونتوس هم داره تو به خاطر رایحه آروماتیکش. بازخوردش بالاس،ازونا که به احتمال زیاد بپرسن عطرتون چیه. نوشته یونیکس ولی عطر کاملا مردونه س. هم وایب یه استایل رسمی مدیر طور را میتونه بده هم یه استایل پیراهنی که دکمه بالاش بازه. عطر شیک و جنتلمن طوریه. من اگه بخوام برم خواستگاری اینو میزنم.

Honestly, I was deeply impressed the moment I tried it. Normally, aquatic fragrances make me feel nauseous — I can’t tolerate the mossy or salty notes they often contain. I’m only just starting to get used to even 40 Knots. But this is something completely different. I tried Luxury Akdeniz, and just like I mentioned above, I almost felt sick and immediately wanted to wash my hands. In my opinion, Ocean Midnight doesn’t really smell similar to Akdeniz. Ocean Midnight is as mass-appealing as possible while still being extremely well-balanced and versatile enough for every situation. It creates the perfect bridge between mainstream appeal and niche perfumery. The moment I tried it, I immediately ordered a bottle. I can already tell it’s going to be one of the fragrances I reach for often during summer. Especially for slightly breezy breakfasts in the morning or evening walks, I think it will be a perfect companion.

wore this to work today and my co-worker said "you smell like a sexy pool". keep in mind, this co-worker is sitting at least three feet away from me. needless to say, great projection on this one. it definitely smells very cologne-y, but the aquatic freshness of it is so intoxicating that I really don't mind that. it's deeper and richer than other "blue" fragrances i've tried, and it's definitely unique in my collection. now, a different friend described this as having a "speed stick-y opening", so that's something to bear in mind as well, but again, I actually like that about this scent.
