A quiet sea on a spring night
Dream Sea is a quiet marine perfume from Lorenzo Pazzaglia's Sea collection. The brand builds it on a portrait: a spring night, the sea in front of you, and the sound of it lapping. A peppery, marine opening makes the water feel cold at first, then white flowers and vanilla warm it into something familiar. It is an Extrait de Parfum.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all...
The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
The opening sets pink and black pepper on a cloud of aquatic notes, ozone and green notes. The brand says this makes the sea seem cold at first: it is dry, clear and slightly sharp, with the pepper giving the marine accord an edge instead of letting it go soft.
In the heart, white flowers, Bulgarian rose and ylang-ylang bring softness, with spices behind them. This is where the brand's picture turns and the cold sea starts to feel comforting. The florals are gentle and supportive rather than loud, so the water stays in view.
The base combines ambergris and black Cyprus salt with sandalwood, cedarwood and vanilla. The salt keeps a sea feeling, while woods and vanilla supply the warmth. It is a restrained drydown, and as an extrait it stays close to the skin.
Wearing it
Dream Sea is calm, so two or three sprays on the chest, neck or wrists will not take over a room. It suits spring and summer, evenings by the water and everyday wear. Because it is quiet, it also works on days when you want a perfume that stays in the background.
For people who like marine scents but want some warmth in them: a peppery start, white flowers and a soft base of vanilla and wood. It is listed as unisex. It suits spring evenings, walks by the water and quieter occasions more than loud parties.
Dream Sea has a gentle, personal idea behind it, a spring night by the sea, and the structure follows it from cool pepper to a warm, familiar base. It was created by Lorenzo Pazzaglia himself and handcrafted in Italy, as an Extrait de Parfum in the brand's Sea collection.
Questions
Both, in that order. The pepper and marine notes make the opening feel cool, then white flowers, vanilla and woods warm it. The brand describes it as moving from a cold sea to something comforting.
It is an Extrait de Parfum, so it is concentrated, but the character is quiet: calm marine notes, soft florals and a restrained base. Two or three sprays are plenty.
Spring and summer, on evenings and relaxed days. Its calm character makes it suitable for most casual settings, as long as you keep to a light hand.
Yes, for someone who likes sea scents with some warmth. It is neither loud nor very sweet, so it suits a wide range of tastes.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
