aquatic
sea water
The smell of real sea water owes much to dimethyl sulfide, a sulfurous gas released as marine microbes break down compounds made by plankton, and it is what gives a harbour its briny, slightly vegetal tang. Perfumery mostly leaves that realism out, translating sea water into a cold, fluid transparency with a hint of salt, closer to the sensation of diving in than to the smell of the shore at low tide.

Essentia catalog analysis
In compositions with this note
429 distinct perfumes with this note recorded.
Of the 429 perfumes in the catalog under this entry, 429 record a documented composition (at least three distinct notes or three distinct accords), spanning 1920 to 2024 across 36 distinct years.
Frequent companion notes
429 / 429 perfumes have at least one other recorded note.
Frequent accords
429 / 429 perfumes have at least one recorded accord.
These are recorded co-occurrences, not similarity scores, ingredient quantities or community preferences. Missing data is not evidence that a note or accord is absent.
How this is calculated
Each perfume counts once, even if a note appears at multiple pyramid levels. Percentages use the documented sample in each section, not the entire catalog. Associations can overlap and do not add up to 100%.
Rankings require at least 10 perfumes with relevant data; an association must occur in at least 3. Only the most frequent associations are shown.
