Sex and The Sea – Francesca Bianchi – A niche perfume with coconut and ambergris

Top notes: Mimosa, pineapple
Heart note: Coconut, immortelle, rose, iris
Base notes: Sandalwood, myrrh, labdanum, benzoin, ambergris, civet, vanilla

Sex and The Sea is not a sea scent, but a memory of skin that has warmed up in the sun. There is saltiness, sand and a clear feeling of sunscreen and coconut – but everything is done with that typical Francesca Bianchi depth that makes the scent both sensual and a little wild. The heart blooms with mimosa, rose and iris that lay a powdery veil over the sun-warmed body. The base lingers for a long time with warmth from resin, sandalwood and an animalic note from ambergris and civet that makes the whole captivating rather than nice.
Perfect when you want sexy vacation skin even in the middle of town. Also an obvious scent for late dinners when you want to leave a sensual but clear impression.

Fragrance family: Marine amber (aquatic & marine with oriental/animal warmth)

This perfume is available in full size (30 ml), but also as a 10 ml travel atomizer and 2 ml sample if you want to try it before choosing a larger bottle.
