The making of Sex and The Sea + Neroli

This fragrance was created for fun: What happens if I take my Sex and The Sea - an outgoing, sexy and warm scent - and combine it with my reconstitution of Neroli - a shy, sharp and hypnotic scent?

I had to calibrate the whole formula to allow the Neroli to stay in the same room as Sex and The Sea.

But the result was so hypnotic and sexy, so refreshing and warm, that I decided to produce this little treasure and not keep it only for my personal use.

I have to admit that I have a weakness for an anti-snobbish attitude (although I am probably unconsciously snobbish myself), so the mere idea of creating something as commercial as a "flanker" was exhilarating.

Sex and The Sea Neroli presents - like the original version - a heart of coconut, the saltiness of the sea, the sweet sweat of warm skin, but this time with a hint of narcotic freshness, which makes the fragrance more complex and its evolution more intriguing.

PS: the logo is a drawing by me, an imaginary union of a Neroli flower and a starfish.
