The story
The idea
The wooden deck shines in the sun, spray touches the face, the coast is only a green line in the distance. 40 Knots catches the moment when only the horizon matters. A simple freedom, with no sugar and no decoration.
The accord
Salty marine notes open the composition, cooled by green notes like a crushed leaf. At the heart, aquatic notes meet damp wood, the hull of a boat soaked and then dried by the sun. Cedar forms the base, dry and pale, still edged with a little green.
On the skin
The opening is lively, almost briny, then the wood gives it footing. The salt never quite leaves. It lasts a moderate time with a moderate trail: it stays close to you, like a breeze that does not drop.
When to wear it
In the daytime, in spring and summer, at work, when travelling, at sea or on a hike. It suits her as well as him. A few sprays on the neck and chest, on clean, moisturised skin.
