Aqva Marine. Bvlgary.


Perfumer:Jacques Cavallier.

countains: neroli bigarade, grapefruit, sap, posidonia kelp, rosemary flower, white cedar, amber.

My winner for this coming summer.
Sexy, aquatic, crisp, bright, gorgeous...
I'm a huge fan of aquatic and, of course, of the classic Bvlgary Aqua,that I do enjoy in cold seasons ( I tried in hot weather this easter holidyas and I find it little to much), but this new Aqva it just suit the profile of perfumes that I adore.
It has a vague reminescence of the original Aqua, as both share the posidonia note, but the new reinterpretation of the Bvlgari range is far away more citrusy and aquatic though.
Let's say that the original Aqva could be the real essence of the open ocean, rich hints of calone, strong doses of kelp and mediterranean herbs and kind of mineral, while the new version is more ozonic, it's more like a walk through a promenade where you can smell the sea breeze.

It starts uplifting and heady, like a glorious aura all around you. embrancing you while the most expandable projection I've ever found.
The neroli this time is quieter comparing with its old brother, now, giving head to a explosion of grapefruit that melts dewy with the kelp, giving the whole formula a lime-like pleasant and sour accent. There's just a hint of resinous odour thanks to the sap, hardly distinctive in my opinion.
The whole perfume is a talented mix of the kelp, citrus and the rosemary flower that gives a unexpected herbal-floral twist, well know in mediterranean countries like here in Spain, with it delicious scent that full the atmosphere when the weather starts to get warmer. The petit grain blosson reamins in the background, being a vital accord in the whole formula.

The perfume dries down light, but with presence and woody, but heady still.

There's a fantastic perfume that users in hot countries will find irresistible, even sexy
The lasting is amazing 12hours in my skin. A must have for aquatic lovers.
