The note of "Sea Mist" unfurls as an ethereal, bracing aldehyde-driven experience, intensely fresh and profoundly aquatic. It carries a crystalline sharpness that prickles the senses initially, akin to tiny salt crystals suspended in cool air. Beneath this initial keenness lies a complex tapestry of mineralic salinity, evoking the very essence of sea spray hitting the face, mingled with a subtle, almost metallic ozone. There's a damp, cool quality that feels expansive and transparent, hinting at vast open spaces. It doesn't present as overtly 'fishy' or heavy like some algal notes, but rather a clean, invigorating breath of the ocean itself. Its texture is weightless, almost effervescent, creating a sense of uplift. Projection is typically moderate to strong, a diffusive aura that spreads wide. As a top-to-heart note, it introduces a composition with an immediate rush of freshness, gradually softening into a slightly greener, more grounded marine accord before gracefully dissipating, leaving behind a subtle skin-like musk or a whisper of clean wood.
