Sel Marin – Eau de Parfum

Heeley  Sel Marin Eau de Parfum
An olfactory seascape – crisp, salty, and quietly profound.

Sel Marin by Heeley Parfums is more than a marine fragrance – it is the scent of salt-laced air, wind-washed skin, and endless horizon. Inspired by the natural beauty of the sea and the understated elegance of minimalist perfumery, this Eau de Parfum captures the essence of a serene summer’s day along the Atlantic coast – sunlight on your shoulders, toes in the sand, a breeze carrying the smell of ocean spray and driftwood.

James Heeley, the British designer and independent perfumer behind the fragrance house, has created a marine scent that feels authentic, textured, and sophisticated – a far cry from the synthetic, blue-toned “aquatics” so common in mainstream perfumery. Sel Marin is sunlight, sea breeze, salt and skin – bottled.

Fragrance Composition – Light, salt, and quiet depth
Top notes: Italian lemon, bergamot, mint
Sel Marin opens with sparkling clarity – a burst of bright citrus and green mint that evokes the first touch of sea air on your face. It’s sharp, fresh, and incredibly uplifting.

Heart notes: Sea salt, seaweed, beech leaf, oakmoss
As the citrus settles, the scent dives deeper into the shoreline. A marine accord enriched with seaweed and moss gives the impression of ocean water drying on sun-kissed skin. Beech leaf adds a verdant, slightly earthy tone that ties the composition to coastal vegetation and wind-shaped dunes.

Base notes: Vetiver, driftwood, cedar, birch, musk, leather
The drydown is warm, dry, and subtly sensual – like driftwood slowly drying in the sun. Vetiver and cedar bring a crisp, woody structure, while birch adds a clean, smoky note. Soft musk lingers close to the skin. A hint of leather adds surprising depth and refinement – a whisper of something human, tactile, and quietly confident.

For lovers of freedom, clarity, and the sea
Sel Marin is the kind of fragrance that doesn’t shout – it speaks with presence. It is ideal for anyone who feels connected to nature, drawn to the horizon, or soothed by the rhythm of waves. It’s unisex, contemporary, and perfect for those who find beauty in minimalism and freedom in open spaces.

Whether worn on hot summer days or to recall their memory in colder months, Sel Marin delivers a calm, invigorating sense of freshness and subtle sophistication.

Why scent amor loves Sel Marin
At scent amor, we believe that fragrance is an artform – and Sel Marin embodies that perfectly. It’s a scent that captures an emotion, a memory, a moment of stillness. Thoughtful in structure, rich in atmosphere, and entirely unpretentious.

Sel Marin is not a performance fragrance. It’s a personal, emotional experience – for wearers who appreciate nuance, quality, and the quiet luxury of a scent that lingers like sea air on skin.
