A magazine about scent and what the label says

PARFUMÉRIA ZET

Fragrance families

Aquatic and ozonic

The impression of water, sea air and damp ozone. A family that only came into being thanks to synthetic molecules.

Typical structure

Citrus and “watery” molecules on top, light florals or herbs in the heart, musk and dry woods in the base.

Also known as: aquatic / marine / ozonic

Sea salt and rain cannot be distilled. Aquatic fragrances are therefore composed – from molecules with a melon-like, salty or ozonic effect, plus citrus and clean musks.

Of the fragrances in the archive, Kenzo pour Homme (1991) counts as aquatic – see its archive entry.
