This is a real gagger! I’ve smelled dead fish on a riverbank which were less offensive. If you desire to smell like this plan on spending many lonely nights.

I actually forget about having this one sometimes. It is difficult to categorize, especially amidst my predominantly “fruitsalad-in-candyland” collection. To me, this says “savory-licorice.” If you were just sniffing it in the bottle, I’m sure it would be a non-selling point for most. That first fishy waft is damned off-putting, but this scent literally blooms in the drydown and leaves no trace of seaweed to my nose.
I’m from a land-locked state, so I don’t have any old-man-and-the-sea types in my past, but that is definitely the image that I kinda get. To me the smokiness of it is more wood cabin comforting, less hamy-sandwhich/pho gau, than what I think others get. My sister absolutely hates it and treats it like that time I made her sniff Demeter’s “Earthworm” perfume – with anger and distrust. Really, some people have no sense of humor…
To me this is the pagan sibling of Lush’s “Flying Saucers.” Comforting in an earthy, almost-foody sense. I’m not sure how this would be perceived in a social setting or even how close it sits to the skin, as I’ve never worn it as such. I wear it on my wrists before bed. To dream of rainy Autumns and a man from the woods 😉

Unpleasant. Nearly irredeemably unpleasant
A scent you would not wish upon your worst enemy. Off-putting overpowered basil, seaweed, liquorice and salt notes.
It smells gone off and dirty. There is very little refinement or depth, I feel I’m like being whacked I’m the face with a rock wearing it.
The quality of the ingredients and oddity may make you want to have it around to sniff. But it is badly composed and totally fails at everything they were trying to achieve with this one.
No person would want this on them or want to wear this in public.
I ended up chucking it out before the use by date. I don’t think I’ve ever done that with anything else and no-one would take it off my hands either.
Yuck, yuck, yuck.

Nice, if you’re looking for an anti-perfume. I mean, seriously. Why can’t one be looking for an anti-perfume? I picture somebody who gets bored with their own fragrances from time to time, let alone usual generic rubish all around us.
As for the rather pleasant part, I could liken it to anise which I’d wear gladly. I had the impressions: 1) a seafront hut where seafood is fried all the time. 2) some strange Asian soup.
Expect something of the EDC strength. You won’t need to worry about annoying others with your weirdness. Keep the weirdness up like that, Lush!

This is extremely challenging. I find this to be more of an olfactory experiment than a perfume. It is unwearable. It is potent. It knocks your socks off in a shocking way. Strong pong of wellington boot, damp and mildewed followed by iodine and liquorice (tarragon). Strong, green, herbal strangeness. I can imagine fishing nets, boats, pebbled beach covered in seaweed and fisherman traipsing up said beach in sea-worn wellies…
