Sirenis

Sirenis by Liquides Imaginaires is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, sage, cardamom and marine accord, moves into rose, broom and sandalwood and dries down to amber, musk, patchouli, oakmoss and vetiver. Expect around 8 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.
Sage Dry, herbal and slightly bitter. Adds a grown-up, aromatic edge.
Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Marine Accord Generic 'ocean' — salt, air and water. Clean and uncomplicated.

Heart

Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Broom Honeyed, hay-like, slightly tobacco. Sun on dry grass.
Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.

Dry-down

Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
