Beach Bizarre, from V/SITEUR was released in 2020. The perfumer behind this creation is Patrice Revillard. The notes are Ambergris, Cannabis, Cumin, Gardenia, Lime, Patchouli, Salt, Seaweed, Tropical Fruits, Ylang-Ylang.
The balance and the harmony between bizarre and beautiful I find this confusing, a bit bizarre perfume pleasant yet definitely not for moments when you want to relax. I see myself wearing this when I get some weird idea in my head that I want to immortalize on a canvas or even compose a tragicomic song in minor rather than major. Or maybe I need some special energy to set a record on the bench press in the gym. Whatever this scent brings to mind, it's something artistic or pushing physical performance to the limit. Yet, I find this composition beautiful as well. On my skin at least, I like how the notes perform and maybe I'm lucky since like "Thousand Lakes | V/siteur" this as well evoke good memories from my childhood. I used to swim a lot in the sea and I used to dive a lot. I love the smell of seaweed and sea salt on the skin. The sea here in Finland is much murkier and it clearly smells of algae so that’s why the water for example in Mediterranean Sea is utterly fresh to my nose. This is fruity and fresh and maybe because I'm not a fan of traditional fresh scents, I love this style. It's different, it's unique. Tropical fruits are not the most realistic ones, maybe even synthetic a bit but it doesn’t bother me here and this wouldn’t be “bizarre” if all the notes would be natural smelling, right? They are very well done regardless and together they achieve the right amount of strangeness that is sought in this fragrance. Cannabis note is tame here and Pathouli is gentle. Like in all perfumes where Ambergris is nicely done, there is some sensuality in the dry down. All in all, I love this perfume and all what I have tried for now, this not the most bizarre at all. Sun and fun (TOP): gardenia, ylang-ylang, lime, tropical fruit and sea salt. Anxiety strikes (BASE): seaweed, cumin, cannabis, patchouli and ambergris. Thank you for reading, I hope you liked my review. I would appreciate if you follow my IG: @ninamariah_perfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more. 🤗
