What Reddit owners say
4/5 Unique“That could be possible since Bvlgari Aqva marine is a beautiful aquatic fragrance that smells amazing but on my skin it smells like rotten eggs.”
2/5“I agree with your wife. I blind bought this based on the hype and didn't like it at all. I think the Bvlgari Aqva line is much better for this marine type of scent. There's something off putting about Le Sel d'Issey but I can't quite put my finger on it. And I say that as a huge Issey Miyake fan. I love their other stuff, but just can't get into this one.”
5/5 Summer“If you can find it (as it has been discontinued), Bvlgari Aqva Marine is perfect in the heat. I used to wear it myself. Aqva pour homme is also very good.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Bvlgari Aqva Marine is one of the only aquatic fragrances I've tried that actually smells like the ocean in some form or another”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Exactly , I have been telling people that l'immensite is closer to aqva Amara than to Tygar . People just say it is similar because they share notes and the perfumer ( Jacques Cavallier Belletrud) same for aqva Amara .”
