    The first time I smelled it off a tester strip I hated it ! Then one day I tried it on my skin and throughout the day I was intoxicated by this smell. Purely because it reminds me of home. I grew up in the deserts of kuwait by the sea, this is a hyper realistic representation of that to me. I absolutely adore it . Cheers ! great precise review just subbed🥂

    Nice review. I recently purchased a 3.4oz of this. I think it’s absolutely fantastic. Super unique combination of opposites. I get a light airy oud and a prominent piney fir. I’d say a dark sweetness as well. I’d say the early opening is more aquatic than marine with a calone hit that fades over a few minutes. There’s a gin-like fizziness as well. I get a little church and airplane hangar in this too-take that as you will. I agree all-season. I saw someone say it smells like a luxury sauna. I agree w that too. I read that the 2017 version contained a carcinogenic compound, which was one reason for the shift I think in addition to what you mentioned re sales. Peace from nyc.

    Great vid. Thx. Marine not really my thing, but wanted to push myself and get one for a trip I was taking to Nova Scotia.. After sampling a bunch was down to Oud Mineral and Amouage Lineage. Landed on a full bottle of the Lineage. Resonated a bit more with me and love it. Maybe my gateway to Marine scents!

    To answer the first question: Yes! All started with TF Tobacco Oud, 9 months ago. I am currently 27 bottle's in with lots of variety of some designer and niche. Which 6 from Amouage, such a beautiful house.

    Honest review. I think on opening it smells of hot car breaks, salty ocean spray, and a wet musty basement. The dry down retains all that but a soft powdery aquatic note starts to come through.
