Orto Parisi - Megamare

Orto Parisi Megamare isn’t just an aquatic fragrance; it is the ocean itself. Endless, cold, violent, alive. A wave that hits with salt, metal, ozone, and a wet mineral brightness that feels like standing at the cliff edge, clothes damp, wind wild, eyes stinging from sea spray. No coconut, no beach sweetness just the raw, unforgiving beauty of deep water. In Megamare, the sea is not a postcard; it is a force.

It feels like salty waves crashing against rock, deep aquatic shadows, metallic driftwood, and the smell of sea-spray drying on warm skin. It’s powerful, addictive, and unmistakably modern.

Performance

• Megamare is renowned for its strong performance and far-reaching sillage.
• A few sprays create a noticeable, almost atmospheric sea cloud around you, with the salty, marine facets projecting clearly for hours.
• As it dries down, the ambergris-style, woody and musky base remains on the skin for a long time, often well into the next day on clothing.
• It’s a scent that doesn’t need heavy application to make its presence felt.

How to Wear Megamare (Practical Tips)

• 1–2 sprays are enough (more may be too strong indoors)

• Performs best in heat & humidity, blooms beautifully outdoors

• Works great paired with a clean white shirt, linen, and open-air events

• Avoid over-spraying on work/closed spaces, as it projects far

For cooler weather pairings, try smoky resinous picks like Zoologist T-Rex or Memoirs of a Perfume Collector – Tales from Zanzibar.

Best For

• Spring and summer, and any season when you want an intense aquatic experience

• Daytime wear, coastal trips, nights out, and niche perfume events

• Anyone who enjoys bold, salty, modern aquatics rather than soft “beach” scents

• Unisex fragrance wearers looking for a statement sea scent with real character and power

Fragrance Character

A truly unisex fragrance decant with a bracing, salty and deeply aquatic personality. A sharp opening of mineral marine notes and citrus, a heart filled with seaweed, iodine and crashing waves, and a dry-down of ambergris-style sea-mineral depth, woods, and musks. Immersive, metallic, and oceanic Megamare smells like being fully surrounded by the sea rather than just standing on the beach.
