O'Vert
by Gallagher Fragrances
O'Vert by Gallagher Fragrances is a crisp, aromatic citrus perfume that captures the essence of fresh lemon and lime, blended with a subtle salty-skin note reminiscent of sea salt and vetiver. The opening is bright and zesty, dominated by bergamot, green mandarin, lemon, lime, and orange, creating an intense, natural-feeling citrus blast that feels both juicy and authentic. The fragrance evolves into a cool, aromatic dry-down, with cardamom and elemi resin adding a spicy, resinous depth, while the base of vetiver, musk, sea salt, and ambergris gives a warm, slightly salty-skin quality that enhances the freshness without becoming too sharp or artificial. It's best worn during daytime hours in spring and summer, where its moderate sillage keeps it refined and intimate, avoiding overpowering. The scent is universally wearable and strongly associated with warm weather, with a longevity that surpasses expectations for a citrus fragrance, lasting up to several hours.

- +Good longevity and moderate sillage for a citrus fragrance, suitable for day wear

Cons
- −Strong salty and animalic undertones may be off-putting to some, evoking comparisons to horse fly spray or manure

- −The dry-down has a bleach-like quality that some find metallic or sterile
