Sel d'Argent
Sel d'Argent by BDK Parfums is an unisex eau de parfum from 2022 in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, grapefruit and sea salt, moves into orange blossom, ylang-ylang and galbanum and dries down to ambroxan, cashmeran and white musk. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Sea Salt Mineral and dry. Skin after a day at the beach.
Heart
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
- Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
- Galbanum Intensely green resin. Smells like snapping a plant stem in half.
Dry-down
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
