It smells like you’re in a boat in the middle of the sea and that wind with a smell of salt water hits you in the face, good perfume for the summer but it’s expensive for what it presents.
75575 – :
A nice aquatic note with very present, salty seaweed. The seaweed is stronger at the opening. In the background I get grapefruit, a herbal accord, amber and maybe something a little floral. Not the most complex scent but that’s not a bad thing. Reminds me of Kenneth Cole For Him that I recently reviewed.
Sillage and projection felt about average. APHM lasted about five hours before becoming soft; fine for work and made for hot weather. It has that mass appealing, clean, generic shower gel vibe but I like it. Many will say it smells good but I don’t find it especially sexy. Unisex leaning masculine. The star here is the seaweed note. It gives a vegetal, green aspect to the perfume that makes it more interesting. A well done aquatic (with a cool bottle) for a nice price that doesn’t give me a headache. Well done Bvlgari!
DsQuared – :
I really like it, but my significant other says that “after a while it smells like a very ripe melon, and that’s unsexy”. I think he might be referring to the seaweed note.
Since I was born by the seaside, I love the sea in a bottle” vibe.
As anyone got the “melon” note comment too?
Klopomor1987 – :
Aqva Marine is nice and boring….and quite frankly perhaps the most boring of the series. However, I do understand why this flanker is embraced by a lot of people. Aqva Marine will definitely be appealing to consumers that enjoy a more simple composition with fragrances—which is perfectly fine.
However, Aqva Pour Homme, and Amara are the best smelling of this series particularly if you enjoy aquatic colognes that have a more complex, and bold composition.
Overall: 6.5/10
Bosipsyplapah – :
This is the ultimate summer fragrance. It is the best representation of salty sea water. Epitome of a fresh. This smells like the sea in the bottle. Smells like a turquoise shallow sea waters that can pierce through he heat and sun and give you this watery cooling effect. Neroli makes it feel clean, like soap clean and woody amber and orange notes make it gentle sweet in the high heat. In the cold this cam be a bit sour but that sour feel it totally not there in the high summer heat because in the heat these notes blend into a fresh, semi sweet frag. But don’t think chocolate or sugar or something heavy sweet. It’s like, if you were sitting in the sea and eating an almost frozen watermelon. Or if you had a glass of ice cold cucumbers. That kind of fresh sweet. This frag and light Blue Living Stromboli are the best frags for summer blazing days. It won’t turn bad, no matter how hot it is. It won’t choke anyone no matter how much you apply. It is inoffensive yet it lingers around you in the air as you move, leaving a cooling effect. Not a projection monster but it wasn’t intended to be.
This is one of the rare frags that will and can withstand whatever temperature you throw at it as it is designed for extreme summers, that leaves you cooled and refreshed. Aside Living Stromboli, this is maybe the only frag that can really do that. Only for extreme heat, day wear. Won’t work anywhere else.

Some people might have been critical to Aqva Marine’s performance. Well, after an application of only two sprays on my neck, I was told to smell like a whole drugstore with a bit feminine feel to it. The scent is kind of salty and green. It is really strong, and on my skin it projects like a beast and is noticeable really long time. So the performance is great. The only disadvantage might be the type of smell. Yes, it is salty, but it is also pretty flowery due to Neroli note. Therefore, in my opinion, this fragrance could have been easily classified as a unisex one.
kommunistik – :
I agree with Art…..The ultimate Summer Fragrance. Remember Summer the First Time Bobby Goldsboro………”Was a hot afternoon…the last day of June”…………..
dikovskii – :
Authentic see breeze. Like being hit by tsunami, nice from far, but up close it smells like rotting dead victims of said tsunami.
Menuw378JeomiWogkig – :
The world best sea note fragrance! You can feel the scent from the beach air.
This is the real sea note that doesn’t fake aquatic cheapie by citrusy like other fragrance, real sea breeze salty yet sexiness. This is my signature scent and the first fragrance I bought 10 years ago, and yes it still my best so far. Imagine the turquoise lagoon in South East Asia Pacific with the sun shine over the sky!
I want to gave it 100/10 score, but it longevity is just average so I give it 10/10. ;p
Sea water droplets on the skin. The best summer fragrance on earth!
bva310Unlogrere – :
its not particularly strong, its linear and not really revolutionary in any way. We’ve seen aquatic frags like this before, but if you are looking for a summer/ holidays/ beach perfume this is a great option. It smells classy and expensive.
nayman0989 – :
it’s a salty aquatic, and green scent, with a little sweetness that makes it beyond lovely, the sweetness adds a soft feminine edge to it.
you can easily layer this one with other perfumes.
hmmlmvdsqi – :
My new summer favorite right here. I have enough summer citrus frags that are supposed to smell “marine” or aquatic, but this one really does. This is wonderful and dries down to very light fresh mountain air scent to me, slightly feminine though, but not at all a bad thing. I am so pleasantly surprised by this one
kirik1980 – :
This fragrance does smell very fresh aquatic clean and unisex. Actually reminds me of a perfume my sister used to wear, think it’s d&g light blue.. but doesn’t smell like Versace eau fraiche to my nose.. when I ask people to smell this up close they love it, if you’re looking for a light airy summer fragrance that you can be extremely trigger heavy with this is it.
sqk702speagoessenda – :
Ok. Very summery scent. Freshness at its best and very green. I can smell many green notes. Seaweed petitgrain and grapefruit very generic. Less synthetic and less strong than its sister amara.more suitable for sure in the morning. However very easy and pleasant scent
abzalbee – :
Love it!!
NakbOalkvaw – :
It was designed by perfumer “Jacques Cavallier” , the creator of the original Aqua Pour Homme fragrance, who tried to evoke the natural freshness and the strength of the ocean with Posidonia Oceanica seaweed, grapefruit and rosemary.
My Opinion This is the one of best fresh summer scents.
Bvlgari marine…Smell like a Sea!
Scent: 6/10
Longevity: 5/10
Sillage: 4/10
Uniqueness: 6/10
Versatility: 6/10
mosian – :
It smells like standing inside of a surf shop located next to the beach with the ocean breeze blowing in through the shop windows. It reminds me of the Outer Banks of North Carolina for some reason. I like it, but I don’t love it. 7/10
AS_007 – :
One of the best fresh summer scents.
Bvlgari marine is a legend
Fresh salty a bit citrusy. this is something very unique unlike other aquatic scents.
This remind me of a sunny day on a beach.
Great scent for outdoors guys.
averaslile – :
I bought this fragrance at Marshalls for $60.00.
It smells great but the performance on it is terrible. This fragrance became a barely noticeable light skin scent after 30 minutes. It was a disappointment! I would not repurchase or recommend!
buzila – :
For Summer, you can’t get better than this. Sweet, salty, fresh, woody, marine with citrusses. A lovely man’s perfume. One of my top 6.
Erarialfwaifs – :
Very calone-heavy, kind of indistinct aquatic fresh scent. Smells like chlorinated water, melon, with just a pinch of citrus (grapefruit?) brightness. Mellow, but not -too- soft. The musk/woodiness in the base is typical of men’s cologne. Basically smells like a nicer version of the ‘ocean’ scents you can find in BBW sprays, home candles, etc. Aqva Marine is pleasant if not unique, and great for layering with other scents for summer.
Platonx – :
Imagine a white painted vacation house in the middle of the desert. Not middle east desert but rather a Texas desert with huge cacti around. It has a swimming pool at the front yard. Water is cool and your’e just there floating with sunglasses on.
Scent: 7/10
Longevity: 6/10
Sillage: 6/10
aleksejsai – :
Wow, I love it. Puts a smile on my face just like Versace Pour Homme. I feel like I’m at the beach wearing this. Imagine you’re walking on the beach with your feet in the sand. You get a combination of the seawater that is a little salty and sweet mixed together with sea breeze blowing in the wind. Hence the marine. The scent is just as nice as the bottle if not better. Got the 5oz bottle for $35.
padisey – :
Amazing cologne! Smells like a mild version Invictus Aqua ’16 with reduced sharp-citrus notes. If you don’t have or cannot locate a bottle of Invictus Aqua ’16, this will be the best clone you can buy! Aqva Marine smells like a grown man, and refined version of Invictus Aqua ’16.
Excellent all purpose summer freshy, that will make you feel good, smell great, and be appealing to those around you during the hot summer days/nights! Performance and longevity isn’t as good as Invictus Aqua ’16 though.
Overall: 9/10
Ivan44 – :
Honestly, not much to add to Buysblind’s comments below. A fresh, aquatic scent perfect for a summer’s day! perfectly blended juice. a clean initial blast that dries down to an oceany scent, but there’s a floral undercurrent that takes the edge off the seaweed – creating that standing by the ocean vibe. Great longevity. A winner in my book!
nrx946Unlogrere – :
If Aqva is a journey deep into the sea, Marine is the return, resting alongside the shore as the waves lap at your feet. This is very much a salt-water aquatic scent and smells like a fresh sea breeze while standing by the shore. Water and seaweed have a strong presence and are blended among more aromatic, floral notes like rosemary and Neroli. The presence of citrus, grapefruit, lemon, help maintain Marine’s freshness. It’s in a brighter, higher register than the original–more airy, more floral, more sun–but still remains very true to the aquatic theme. Marine is a clean, fresh scent but still packs plenty of seaweed in its punch. Sillage is very good and longevity is about average. While I wear Aqva all year around, I would reserve Marine mostly for the spring and summer. Different enough from Aqva to warrant owning both, while Marine doesn’t knock the original off its pedestal as the most authentic/best designer aquatic, it certainly helps to further develop the line and offers a brighter, breezier option. Thumbs up, 7.5/10.
dracula1985 – :
If you must ask, there the Aqva Tonic and Aqva Marine Tonic. I’ve had the Aqva Marine Tonic and it’s more uplifting, refreshing and the seaweed accord is more forward also.
elitsturm – :
Does anyone know if this edition and the toniq are the same in presentation of scent? Marine and Markne Toniq, please somome prvt me.

The God of Sea
Just bought my 15th bottle today! Love this so much, it my signature scent for over 9 years! The real sea scent, every time I wear it I feel like I’m Poseidon himself 😉 Citrus, Seaweed, Cedar, Neroli make me feel like Blue Hawaii cocktail on the beach! and I always wear this when I walking around sea side….
The salty smell with cedar is just like smelling of wood that sunk in the sea for a long long time , and make my skin smell like I just finished diving and droplets of sea water dry under the sun… it perfect and fun, what I can imagine this scent!
Scent: 10/10 (real sea scent)
Sillage: 6.5/10
Longevity: 7/10
Perfect for beach party, or anytime you want to feel like you are on the beach!
I will wear this perfume entire life for sure!
saskthoto – :
A sublime marine and fresh fragrance. Carefully blended in my opinion. Longevity and silage are good. I can smell: florals, salt, seawater, lemons and woods. This is so good – one the nicest fragrances for men in the world!
TweteExcesE – :
Hate it. Strong seaweed note. I wore it to work one day and walked past a group of women and i heard them whispering “he wrong for wearing that stinky cologne” lol
LasPapas – :
Looking something to use in a daily basis, just window shopping went to the perfume shops floor in the mall, decided to check one shop, on the window shelves they’re a bunch of perfumes. I sow this one laying below the last shelves. Ask the sale attendant if I can smell it he spray it in my neck BOOM it just hit me, I just been transported on a ship traveling to an island. This scent is just an ALL NATURAL SEA BREAZZ. It’s that good bough it wearing it every possible way, any scenario or occasion. LOVE IT……….
Eric_3 – :
Call me crazy, but it smells similar, to some extent, to the original 212 Men by Carolina. I had a vintage bottle and I get very similar top notes. Not exactly the same but similar vibe.
Anyway, make sure you get the bottle vintage bottle 2011 and earlier. Looks like:
BVLGARI (large text)
AQVA (large text)
Pour homme (small text)
Marine (small text)
Looks like the picture above.
Stronger, sillage is better and deeper, richer smell. Great aquatic summer scent, although I find myself wearing this on days that are 65 degrees and warmer. Love the ocean vibe it puts off like salty sea air on a semi cloudy day.
casya83 – :
Love it, this is a great summertime scent. to describe it in three words would be fresh, cool and uplifting.
A perfect Summer signature scent for anyone of any age I can’t see many people disliking this. It’s a crowd pleaser in my opinion.
The performance of this based on Fragrantica stats is pretty spot on. its Longevity and projection/sillage are moderate, nothing more and nothing less. I would give performance an overall 7/10
on another note I have seen a lot of reviewers most likely die hard frag heads on here claiming that it smells ”like seawater” or ”eggs” (of all things, Eggs ??) I think that when people say it smells like seawater or the ocean don’t take it literally as this does not smell exactly like ”the ocean” or a beach. Hard to explain but it gives a vibe of the coolness of an ocean breeze.
dimadima – :
Sea water in a bottle.
adam65 – :
This is lovely! It smells both refreshing and relaxing, at the same time.
I don’t really get the seaweed vibe. What I do get is grapefruit, watery notes with an woodsy-herbal calming undertone.
You just can’t go wrong with this one, pretty hard to over-spray I don’t think it can get obnoxious; really inoffensive scent.
Im not saying it’s perfect for the office, rather for hanging out with friends and family because of its playful nature. I wouldn’t wear this on a date however because it’s too tame, too calm.
Final rating : 9/10. As a guy in his 20’s, this is signature-scent worthy. Maybe not as good for the older crowd, but ideal for young guys
zamua2010 – :
Bought it today. I also tried Atlantique-it’s literally a Sauvage clone. Aqva Marine is maybe the best example of aquatic scent-it really smells like water. Very clean and fresh smelling! The original Aqva was good-this is even better!
gulia2806 – :
Smelling this fragrance I Imagine a sea side town in Italy where everyone is smiling. You are there to visit the lighthouse. You take the journey and find the lighthouse is surrounded by blossom trees on your backside. The scent of the ocean is what really hits you when you stand at the top of the lighthouse. The ocean air blowing in your face drowns out the blossom trees, but you know they will be around on a calm day. Rating: 8 out of 10
map4elo – :
First of all, I not tested the original Aqva (yet), so I can’t compare it. This one is a classy citric-salty-aquatic, summer/beach scent. Because of the seaweed, this frag is a bit unique, but not an outstanding stuff. The very long lasting (1 hour) top note is great with the grapefruit, neroli and the seaweed, but later, int he mid, all I get is a bit salty water notes, nothing other. I don’t know why, but I do not want to smell like water… The base is a very very weak cedar, not too convincig. If you want to wear a classy watery perfume buy it, but I think not worth the money, and I pass it.
– Summer/day time scent, not too versatile
– sillage, as most of the aquatic scent is poor, but the longevity impressed me, I got 6-7 hours, whis is verty good.
– safe blind buy
Scent (open, top-mid): 7.5/10 (x2)

This is one of the best fragrance I’ve ever used. The longevity is incredible and the scent is so fresh that I feel chilled out throughout the day.
GEORGIJ18Panfilov – :
Very fresh and crispy summer scent…Best for beach hang outs..
The only problem is longevity 4 to 6 hours with moderate sillage
Overall a good summer scent
sokoll7777 – :
This is absolutely one of my favorite smells! If you love those uber aquatic, cool smells you’ll LOVE this! And to me it smells almost IDENTICAL to Versace man eau fraiche.
bmw039 – :
Such an inoffensive scent that I cant imagine anyone not liking! As a woman almost feel like this fragrance is unisex because it is so well blended. There is no sharpness that I see in many mens fragrances. And the lasting power is great too!
Its fresh, aquatic(has that just stepped out of the shower smell)and clean. I highly recommend this scent for people who are fussy with perfume or dont like strong scents.
fotik – :
This is one that I chose for my husband since I’m “the nose” of the family.
He smells SO AMAZING in this fragrance!
He and I tend to both be partial to aquatic, clean, salty, ozonic fragrances and this one is a gorgeous BEAST. It lasts for hours but even when he uses a few healthy sprays, this never has that “I dominate the atmosphere and steal all of your oxygen with my perfume” kind of presence that others are prone to.
You absolutely get what you pay for with Bvlgari and Aqva is no exception.
Scent: 9/10
Longevity: 7/10
Sillage: 8/10
siet – :
Nice but i get bored after a while. I like to smell it for some moments. I can not tolerate it is on me for whole day. Bitter green ocean scent it is.
skm229bedyWelty – :
Great scent but I’m an Aqva lover so totally biased.
Opening is grapefruit mandarin in a blast that lasts minutes then you’re into the marine aquatic scent.
It stays fresh marine and not just citrus (like other ‘aquatics’ that can end up smelling like lemon floor cleaner).
I can see how many could get the marine elements coming through on their skin more than on the original Aqva but try before you buy and if it works will be hard to beat for a fresh uplifting option that not everyone’s wearing.
DilsliepNen43 – :
I had this one and Versace Eros at the same time. This one did not compete that well against Eros but it is still a very good scent. The opened air freshness (citrus) was a delight and as a daily driver for work it was good. I also found it to very comfortable to take with me anywhere because of the packaging.
It lasts quite long. Probably 5-6h is a good estimate.
It fills the whole room. I was walking in to a place and a girl smelled it from a distance. Do not exaggerate. Should be put on a bit less then others.
сodosch – :
Good projection.
It really reminds me of my island on the summer. Madeira Island.
I really enjoy the salty scent resemble ocean sea.
First spray reminds me of Mango. after a while the salty starts to come.
Scent 9/10 really does well on what is supposed to do MARINE(ocean).
Longevity 8/10
projection 7/10
zar197878 – :
Which one iz batter for me in Bvlgari Aqua Line cz I love aquatic fresh citrus Scent any one Suggest me..
optymist – :
Really nice aquatic smell. Very oceanic. Fits very well for those really hot areas (+35C) where you want a “true” summer fragrance.
The smell itself is a creamy, soft, aquatic scent & the performance is good for a summer fragrance.
unliminsane – :
For me it far better than the original aqua pour homme , real sea breeze that comes from the beach in southern of Pacific. Brighter citrus, a bit of salty air, cool feeling from tropical flowers and sweetness from tropical drinks. The first time I smelled it reminded me my hometown in the southern of Thailand , the islands, shores, blue lagoon and sand beach.. just like when I standing beach side and wind flowing through me mixed with the trees and flowers smells around. It’s perfect!
pisarew – :
My original opinion of Aqva Marine was negative. It opens strong with an air freshener vibe that I don’t find pleasant. It gets better after it settles. Overall it has more strength and longevity than original Aqva but it’s still pretty light after it settles in.
It’s not bad but I like Nautica Voyage and others better in terms of scent and performance.
danutadarabal – :
This is taking an aquatic a bit too far. Smells like a guy who, minutes ago, had a grueling fight with an octopus on sea.
scc866JeomiWogkig – :
Read/watched a bunch of reviews and thought it may smell like the ocean. Went to the store to test/purchase and no way. Does not remind me of the ocean and I thought it stunk. Pass.
Update: Its the seaweed. It does smell like seaweed. So perhaps a heavily infested with algae or seaweed ocean. I get that. But I do not like the smell of seaweed. If you do, you will enjoy this.
Vegearolley – :
Who would of thought a fragrance could quench your thirst?
Look no further.
Legend says if you drink it you’ll never be thirsty again.
But seriously… if you’re looking for a cheap compliment getter that everybody likes, grab this thing. It’s like 35 bucks for a 5 oz- a small price to pay for a personal sample from the spring of life.
DiupeNepuniok – :
Not much to say here. Just wanted to add my two scents as I’ve had this for a long time and haven’t worn it much, but wanted to write a quick review.
It’s hard to describe other then it smells of the beach or the ocean and some sort of salt water smell. It’s all so faint, you can’t really tell. It’s CRAZY light and has almost no performance on my skin even with Vegetable Glycerine moisturizer on!!! Within a few seconds of spraying 6 sprays on, I can barely tell if I even put it on. It lasts maybe 3-6 hours with the softest sillage, almost imperceptible. Others say they can barely smell me sometimes, other times not at all in the first 1-4 hours. It’s a barely there skin scent after 1 hour, which is kind of nice for summer when you don’t want to smell too strong in the hot summer temps. Leaves a nice clean salt water beach smell on your skin. I like it for after the beach and having drinks while waiting for dinner at the beach. It’s very light, won’t offend anyone, and keeps the just at the beach vibe going until it’s time for bed. That’s pretty much the only time I wear it.
Other then that, it’s kind of useless and has really bad performance. I might try the Atlantique and Amara if I can get some samples. I like the idea of a light sea scent but it needs to have SOME performance! This is just ridiculously weak.
igor33019 – :
This is an extremely interesting scent, best for Spring/Summer use. First spray I get a very distinct fruity aqua smell, with an underlying whiff of pencil shavings. 20 minutes or so a very salty marine note dominates. I get excellent projection and it will last 5-6 hours with 7-8 liberal sprays in the key areas. It gets compliments and questions, which is a sign this is good juice for me to use. This isn’t a scent for everyone though, as I gave my Dad a few sprays and it was very synthetic and metallic smelling. So this one is very dependent on your chemistry.
maxchifa – :
This is an awesome aquatic fragrance. It lasts 5-6 hours and projects nicely. My favorite in this category by a mile.
Dimann01 – :
I reeeeaallly love the smell. This will be my daily casual scent regardless the longevity. I really hope it lasts longer.
giorgib – :
AQVA MARINE di BVLGARI non è per il sottoscritto! Il prodotto apre con gli agrumi ma sono avvertibili per i primi due minuti il legno di cedro e l’ambra sono labilissimi. Il cuore della fragranza sono le note d’acqua ma soprattutto le alghe marina che insorgono dopo appena dieci minuti e non abbandonano più l’olfatto di chi lo indossa. L’obiettivo del profumiere era questo ed è stato bravissimo, sono io che non amo l’odore delle alghe marine.

Mefet438Diobtetty – :
Very fresh and salty. a true master piece
schulerrcarmelina2 – :
If you want a fresh, sweet, well blended and citrussy EDT with marine saltiness (not overdone) – then this little masterpiece has character as well. It lasts all day! (on me) I think it’s the nicest marine perfume out there!
Bloormabiom – :
Blind buy, i bought it last year at the drug store for $16.00 bucks.
For the 3.4 oz bottle, wish i bought more than one.
I would wear this on a date up close.
Not harsh…smells great.
Sillage is about 4 feet…and more if the wind is blowing.
Last about 9 hours on me.
Received many compliments.
Would buy again.
pifonina-anya – :
Opening is a bit too harsh and bitter, but the drydown is really enjoyable
chester66 – :
Quite good one in this genre, not offensive nor “cheapy”
Jakar00777 – :
Nice and fresh fragrance but the problem is longevity.
reider05 – :
Amazing fresh fragrance. Reminds me of the sea. But it’s not that aquatic which smells of stale water like many aquatics do. It is in the same vein as Versace Pour Homme. Not the same smell but the same vibe. This is more watery and bitter in the dry down but just slightly while pour home is more sweet. Lasts longer then Versace.
This screams summer and works only in summer heat, both day or night. Vacation, coffee, lunch during blazing summer days… it will feel cooling and refreshing, no one will mind as it is not offensive no matter if you apply a lot. Definitely not complex nor should it be because it wants to be only one thing… summer hot weather fragrance that lasts and smells pleasant yet light. Is it better than Versace Pour Homme? No. Is it far? No. Similar vibe, different frags that get the job done and ppl love both.
RS – :
(female perspective) I tried this on at a perfume counter last week and fell in love with it. I couldn’t stop thinking about this saltyesqe unique fragrance. So I went back to the store to buy it and to my surprise D: it’s a men’s fragrance! I didn’t realize that the first time, long story, but I tried it again anyways. Every time I smelled this, it literally made my mouth water. I will not be buying this for myself but I will be buying for my man. And I like the gentle sillage, it will keep my face burried right up against his body.
Update: I did buy this for my boyfriend and he too, quickly became obsessed. Awesome fresh yet sexy scent. Love it!

Hi everyone!
As a Filipino, most people here prefer lighter scents, as we in the Philippines have a predominantly tropical climate. But being a 3rd world country, most haven’t updated their perfume game yet, at least on knowledge, information or relativity. You guessed it. Armani Acqua di Gio and Issey Miyake are used by nearly every guy who wants to smell good here. I got the Bvlgari Aqva Marine as I didn’t have a light aquatic scent last year, and I stayed far away from Bvlgari Aqva & the 2 perfumes previously mentioned. Bought this to sort of “fit in”, but I wear this only for cycling or other solo activities, as Aqva as become quite of a go-to scent for a LOT of guys here. Great inoffensive & very likeable scent, perfect for those instances when you just need to smell good for others. No hate, though. I seriously consider another bottle when my juice runs out.
nikonova – :
I have tested this morning about 11am and now is 3pm,i can still feel the smell on my skin,even after i washed my hands..I like this fragrance but only thing is sillage is very weak but not bad,,This fragrance is good for day time in a warm weather…I found a great deal on this fragrance $25 50ml or 2 for $40 for this price i am happy with fragrance…

I love this frag for the really hot days here in Texas
.its longevity last about 8 hrs and Silage is moderate but overall i will buy again but only use in the summer during the daytime .it is a very very fresh scent.
Dikma86 – :
I have given this perfume so many chances for it to come good. It’s been a disappointment-it has no projection and its longevity is non existent. I’ve literally doused myself in it and it disappears after less than an hour. Though i recieved it as a gift, I feel bad for the giver because I’ve had better scent, projection and longevity from unknown brands. Have tried in on skin-disappears really fast. On clothes, and that too on a hot day(no shortage of that in sunny Singapore)-disappears after an hour and a half. Don’t even get me started if I’m wearing this in a cold office because deodorant can outlast and out project this perfume. Thumbs down from me. Extremely disappointing.
P. S. Update : This won’t even work as an air refresher.
tixLibQueuere – :
This fragrance is really meant for Summer days! It reminds me of walking on beach, with the waves crashing, and the smell of seaweed in the air.
When I first sprayed this frag I was surprised how much it smells of seaweed. I was happy to find out that that initial blast subsides and you are left with a salty, seaweed smell (after 30 minutes). The overall frag is not that offensive. It really does smell like you have been walking on the beach for a few hours.
On my skin it lasts around 5-6 hours.
Recommended for casual, relaxing, summer days with friends.
Overall: 6/10
Longevity: 7/10
Sillage: 7/10

I have already Bvlgari Pour Homme which is my all time aquatic juice. I tried this today and it’s very good quality. The smell of Marine is even better than aqua di gio. And marine strangely lasts very long 8 hours and I like the soapy shower dry down after 4 hours. It’s starts with ocean salty breeze and airy than changes to soapy after 4-5 hours which is not bad.
The price is right but since I usualy buy my fragrances from flea market or independent fragrance stores not many of them carry marine. But I ordered today from my source at flea market for $50/ for 100ml which is good deal.

Fresh fragrance. But I d prefer BVlgari pour homme, stronger and lasts longer. Aqua is not that strong, lasts about hour and half even when I spray 3 times, But smell is cool.
Overall 7/10
Longevity 3/10

I really love this one. My uncle used to wear it and I can say I never got tired of smelling it. It’s fresh, not too pungent. I would call it classy.

I love this scent! I did not expect to love it since I like girly perfumes.
EDIT:
I wish it came with a more female-friendly scent. I love it on my bf tho. I think this fragrance is one of the things that attracted me to him LOL. It smells so lovely on him.

Pretty much smells like the ocean! Not a bad scent at all, perfect for the hot Summer days. Very atmospheric, just be cautious if you really do not like salty notes.

Great unique aquatic.
For the first time, I feel someone finally made a true seashore aquatic that wasn’t heavily based on citrus.
Clean, fresh and slightly marine scented. Longevity is average (4-5 hours) on my skin. This is a great daytime summer scent for outdoors. What I like most about this is that although it’s a typical clean and light aquatic, it does have a different spin on it to make it unique, good for finding your own signature scent so you don’t smell like everyone else
Clean, crisp with a slightly marine (seaweed and barnacle) undertone. This is an aquatic that truly does feel like your laying close to the beach shoreline of a boat harbor while the seagulls sqaw about.

This fragrance and me have a love and hate relationship !
When I first bought this scent many years ago when I first started getting into buying fragrances I remember spraying this and LOVING THIS. So then I sprayed it on my skin and it smelled horrible after about 5 minutes. So because of that I sold this to my step dad for cheap since he also liked wearing fragrances. H
