Chaos

Haven't smelled Megamare, but was in the search of a marine, salty, sea (but not fresh) scent. Along the way I stumbled across Xerjoff's 40 knots and Nishane's EGE - both really fit the criteria but were missing something which I couldn't put my finger on. I also had the honor of smelling Aqua Sapphire by Boadicea but it was never on the menu as that scent starts at around 800Euro where I live, yet it also fit the criteria. Luckily the shop assistant was kind enough to hear my yap about searching for a specific marine/salty scent that is almost stripped off any freshness and she immediately pointed me to Chaos. Hit the spot just right. It starts off tame as if you are just standing at a seashore - not intimidating, sort of soothing white flowers with a hint of salt. As you progressively go deeper in the sea (figuratively), the scent develops into more seaweed-y fragrance until you've reached full depth where it is almost intimidating, probably due to the oakmoss. I can't stress how exciting this scent is, definitely NOT a people pleaser, definitely DO NOT blind buy, I would even advise smelling it across different periods to see whether you are still on board with it. Get a sample.

Starting to think I found a new favorite house. After trying XXIV Carat Gold by the same perfumer and being very impressed, I grabbed an 8 piece sample pack of decanters online. This was the first I tried out and I am very excited to say I am impressed again. This might event be my new favorite "blue"/summer day scent. Tons of cool stuff happening here, big fresh opener with a unique dry down, something like wicker. I get more grapefruit than lemon, with just a little bit of cigarette smoke? I love this stuff and plan to grab a bottle of I find one inexpensive for this summer.

Yes, indeed this one resonates somewhere close to Megamare. But the lack of musk makes it a more wearable one. For me, it's like DG light blue intense mixed with Clinique happy. It's like an alfalfa field on the beachside. It's green and it's aquatic, it's really a chaos. The sillage is enormous and it's a 24+ scent.

I believe it can be challenging for average consumers, but i wont recommend keep sniffing it up close your arms, because it leaves nice scent trial behind you and it gets you noticed. Performance and projection are no joke.

Absolute BEAST of a fresh fragrance!! This is the perfume for people who are tired of weak summer juices. Crazy projection for 4-5 hours...
