Aquatic notes in perfumes play a unique and evocative role, offering a sensory escape to water-rich landscapes—whether it's the ocean, a freshwater stream, or the crisp air after a rainstorm.
What Are Aquatic Notes?
Aquatic notes are designed to mimic the scent of water and its surroundings. They typically fall into three categories:
Marine notes: Evoke salty sea air, driftwood, and ocean spray.
Ozonic notes: Capture the airy freshness of ozone, like the scent after a thunderstorm.
Fresh water notes: Suggest the purity of lakes, rivers, or rain.
