Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
Soft, clean and soapy, yet a distinct aquatic unlike the usual ones: ozonic, refined and unobtrusive, with a green coniferous touch. That freshness of wet stones gains a warm, exquisite creaminess. Ideal for those who don’t want to smell like cologne, but like a second skin. Perfect for spring, summer, the office and unisex wear. Thanks be, it doesn’t smell like coconut or tropical. Moderate projection and medium longevity, with elegance in its neatness. It creates a personal bubble that captivates as you get closer; the scent is beautiful and refined.
On my skin, the mineral note dominates from the opening through to the dry down, stripping away its elegance. It reminds me of the salty, metallic smell of Mugler’s Wonairity; the other notes fade into the background, like wearing silver jewellery on a sweaty beach. The citrus and florals lose their lustre, appearing dirty in a rusted iron vase. Although the ingredients are high quality, they simply don’t work on my skin. I recommend testing before buying; I have samples and won’t purchase the bottle because it smells off on my pH, has poor longevity, and the mineral notes are always present.
Personally, I found it repulsive. Although it starts with an aquatic, fresh coconut vibe, once it settles, it smells of a wet dog. In my opinion, it is very unpleasant.
If you’re wondering why you can’t try it, my apologies if I offend, but it reminds me strongly of Loewe’s Paula’s Ibiza. Obviously, it has more nuance and you can sense the quality of its essences, but it makes me think of that other summer scent which isn’t one of my favourites either. Do not buy it blindly.
Delightful perfume that opens with a prominent salty note that lingers through to the dry down, accompanied by sweet citrus that blends well with the salt. I detect a delicious wet mineral note evoking sun-bathed salt stones. As it dries, notes of sweet resinous coconut appear, from the mastic and labdanum, with creamy white jasmine. François Demachy has managed to bottle the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc: white architecture facing the sea, with pines and palms in the background. It’s not being in the sea, but sitting on the beach eating coconut with lemon and salt. Ideal for spring, summer and autumn, with casual or formal wear, a white dress or romantic dinners. In the office, moderate the spray. Longevity is 6 hours on skin, 8-12 on clothes, keeping the scent for days. Prominent trail in the first hour, then a lasting aura. Pleasant for mornings. I might buy the bottle, although for the price there are better options in niche or the Dior collection. Delicious, holidays in a bottle!
In parts, it is surprising, unisex with floral nuances at the end, summer night flowers that make it sexy and feminine. It has an oily texture, rubbing like oil, taking time to evaporate, doesn’t stain and softens the skin. I don’t smell salt, but rather marine reminiscences, algae or brine. I confirm pleasant, subtle and talcum-like mineral notes from the start. Inconclusive citrus, pine wood with three nuances: resin, dry branches and fresh leaves. Where is the coconut? I can’t find it, neither as shell nor as tanning oil. It evolves well with olive, heather, Mediterranean herbs and subtle night flowers. Warm but not cloying. It surprises me, I like it and recommend it: original, modern and sexy. A crazy summer night.
Eden Roc is a dream scent for this heat. A floral embrace, fresh from citrus, slightly salty and usable by those with allergies. Perfect for summer nights. It’s as if Montale’s Sunflower, brash and imposing, evolved into something elegant, sophisticated and calming. Low trail but excellent longevity. If you’re looking for a summer scent outside of sunscreen and want something elegant and not overpowering, it’s a splendid option. I categorise it in the Chanel vibe, although I stick with Sunflower for being saltier and more marine.
