- ★5/5 — "Hideous ambroxan-bomb opening, but after an hour or so (too long?) the magic unfolds. I get the synthetic marine smells, but also something warm, spicy and sweet. It ebbs and flows and changes with the skin temperature. Very interesting and beguiling. It bears more than a passing resemblance to Uncut Gem.  My main issue with this is the monstrous performance and the noseblindness. Remember how bad…"
- ★5/5 — Spring, Summer — Casual, Office — "Powerful.

A massive, mysterious sea beast, a preternatural creature of divine power, wrapped in radioactive seaweed, rises from the unfathomable depths of an otherworldly ocean trench to surface in the middle of a typhoon. Tsunamis wreak havoc around the globe, saltwater instantaneously soaks every surface, a strange cloud of mossy mus…"
- ★2/5 — Spring, Summer — "After reviewing Bergamask, my expectations were set very low when it came to Megamare - it’s safe to say they were met. Gaultieri has presented yet another molestation of the senses, in the form of a cheap smelling aquatic accord. I can love intensely aquatic fragrances with that powerful seaweed accord, Acqua di Sale by Profumum Roma is a perfect example of this. However with Megamare, it just sm…"
