Editor's Notes

Orti Parisi's Megamare is dedicated to the infinite vastness and depth of the serene sea, fractured with an unsteady turbulence: crashing waves and an uncertainty of what lies beneath. Megamare is expectedly an aquatic scent, with a power and seriousness unusual for the category. It cajoles you to smell closely, as reverberations of salty sea air and tangy salt water dry on animalic, bodily tones and a rich monolithic ambery core with woody, cedar-esque facets, giving this marine-inspired scent intensity and impact.

You can picture the scene this fragrance creates: a shoreline of shingle, of spiced brine, and seaweed tangled against old decaying wood and rocks covered in moss and algae. Against this tranquil image is the sublime terror of the murky uncertainty of the sea, mountainous crashing waves against juts of craggy rocky ridges, and an incoming sea of thick fog. When this event ends, one is left with a stillness. As it dries down, the scent turns crystalline yet present with salty amber, like a diffusive ray of light landing on the gentle ebb and flow of the ocean.

Big Ocean Beast!

This is a big ocean story. It’s certainly not a “freshy”. The story opens with a beach scene. The sun is shimmering off the ocean and there is a briny onshore breeze. Then (30 mins in) things suddenly turn dark. The sunshine is replaced by a ferocious storm. The sea turns black and menacing. Everything is tossed and turned inside huge waves as they crash into the coastline. Eventually, things calm down and the skies clear. You walk along a beach, strewn with seaweed, crushed molluscs, driftwood, rusty metal and the occasional dead fish. It’s like an uncooked bisque thrown together by Mother Nature. It could be repugnant, but it’s not because it reminds you of the power of the ocean and how it has always fascinated you.
Megamare is an art piece and not a smell-good perfume. If you like artisanal frags this is a must buy!

Long lasting

A truly awful smell - smells like dead fish and rotting seaweed. Also it lasts forever!

The journey is a good one, the ending not so much

Love the opening notes, then it moves into quite a seaweed/algae/foreshore vibe I’m not so mad about, but it doesn’t last long and settles into a beautiful, unusual, fresh marine … unfortunately the tail end is a super-amber which is the same as every second male-leaning fragrance on the market.

Excited and delighted with Megamare

Megamare is amazing.
I'm so glad I've tried this perfect sample from NOAH that was shipped so fast, with other samples from the Orto collection.

I'm entranced with this scent and the way I crave it is unlike any scent I've used before.
This scent captures a fresh and clean air with a lasting masculine (yet unisex) musky base.

So strong

This is ridiculously strong but smells so good, the longevity and silage does not disappoint.

Megamare

This guy is loud. I would say is very synthetic and marine, but in a good way. It's office friendly, just go light with the trigger, a couple of sprays will do the job without asphyxiating your colleagues.

Great scent but...

No doubt, it's a fantastic fragrance and I can see why people are going crazy with this. However, even after applying 4 sprays, it somehow didn't last long on my skin but stayed on my clothes. So, yes it's a great scent but just not for everyone.

The essence of 'Niche'

Very bespoke and encapsulates Niche perfumery's boundless artistry. Personally I recommend one spray only, otherwise the ambroxan is overly dominant and you miss everything else about this gem.

N.O.A.H's service as always is top notch.

I get stopped in the street

By passers by, by Singapore Embassy staff, my local greengrocer and others to ask me the name of my beautiful scent. I love both the compliments and the scent itself.

The scent of Masculinity

Difficult to describe other than a manly man scent!
Unique, I’ve never smelt anything like it.
Extremely potent, long lasting and actually gets better as it settles into the skin!
Expect to get plenty of compliments if invest in the purchase of this one!
