Vista sul Mare

Vista Sul Mare from Linari is a fresh, citrus-driven aquatic fragrance with a focus on marine and aromatic notes. It opens with bright, zingy citrus—Amalfi lemon, bergamot, grapefruit, and tangerine—setting a crisp, invigorating tone. The middle layer features subtle spices like pink pepper and clove, with floral touches of lily-of-the-valley and rose, all blending into a cool, oceanic backbone. The dry-down reveals a soft, delicate base of musk, amber, patchouli, and virginia cedar, giving the scent a slightly warm, airy finish. While not particularly complex or original, it is well-balanced and clearly crafted with quality materials—especially in longevity and sillage, which exceed typical expectations in the aquatic category. It performs most effectively during summer, especially during the day, and is widely regarded as a smooth, solid, unisex option that leans masculine. However, many note it feels generic and lacks personality among the entry points of this niche house.
