Description
Description
Del Mar is Day Three Fragrances’ sun-bleached love letter to a California beach day, composed by perfumer and Day Three co-owner Michael Paul, it pairs juicy citrus and ginger with a soft “sand accord” and a hint of coconut and jasmine. Fragrantica reviewers have called it a gentler, more floral twist on Creed’s Virgin Island Water: less astringent, more terrestrial, with the sea-spray character kept subtle rather than sunscreen-loud.
Scent Character
- Fresh: 30%
- Sweet: 26%
- Floral: 21%
- Spicy: 9%
- Woody: 5%
Translation: a fresh, sweet-floral aquatic, sea spray and citrus lead, with coconut and jasmine warming the edges rather than driving the scent.
