Midnight Rain – Our Rendition of Megamare by Orto Parisi

The perfumer has hidden the notes from us, which makes it even more interesting as it leaves the work to one’s nose and imagination.

Let’s summarize the key characteristics and your experience with this perfume:

Realistic Maritime Depiction:

1. • The fragrance is described as a “MEGA mare (hear me thunder!),” suggesting a powerful and realistic representation of the sea. It’s not the typical ozonic water; instead, it captures the true essence of the sea.

Salty, Bitter, Dark, and Sour:

1. • The sea depiction is not only salty but also bitter and surprisingly dark. There’s a hint of sourness, adding complexity to the fragrance.

Musky and Aromatic:

1. • The fragrance is characterized by a strong muskiness, with a clean yet animalic quality. It’s highly aromatic, contributing to the overall potency.

Cold, Woody, and Vegetal:

1. • The fragrance is described as cold, with a woody undertone and a vegetal, alive quality. Specific notes like myrtle, clary sage, kelp, and seaweed contribute to its unique character.

Terrifying and Evocative:

1. • Unlike soft and tranquil aquatics, this fragrance is said to be terrifying and capable of transporting you to unexpected places. It has a potent and evocative quality that resonates with the strength of the sea.

Longevity and Projection:

1. • The fragrance is highlighted for its exceptional longevity, lasting for up to two days, even through showers. It projects strongly, making it a powerhouse in terms of performance.

Value for Price:

1. • Despite its strength, you might argue that the fragrance is overpriced for a 100ml, but one thing to note is, it’s a “lifetime bottle” due to its potency.

Application Caution:

• • A caution is provided regarding application, with a strong recommendation to use a minimal number of sprays to avoid overwhelming oneself and others.
