Island Water Woman

Island Water Woman, released in 2020 by the Dutch brand Scotch & Soda and composed by Amandine Clerc-Marie and Philippine Courtière, is a woody fragrance with sweet and floral accords and lighter green and fresh touches.

Black currant and angelica open with a tart, green and slightly herbal freshness, while salt adds a mineral, sea-air quality. Coconut brings a creamy, beachy sweetness that suits the island theme. The floral heart combines jasmine, stephanotis and cannonball flower, creamy, waxy and exotic. The base is warm and woody: exotic woods and patchouli provide an earthy, slightly smoky depth.

The overall mood is relaxed and sun-soaked, like a beach holiday captured in a bottle. It suits spring and summer, daytime and casual occasions, and works well for holidays and weekends. It should appeal to anyone who enjoys salty, coconut-tinged florals with a woody base, and who prefers easy-going warmth to a heavy tropical blend.
