Salado is the scent of summer – imagine sun bathed skin, speckled with dried salt crystals left behind from a refreshing ocean dip. The water is the colour of tourmaline, crystal clear and it feels crisp and cooling on the skin. A gentle Mediterannean breeze softly skims your shoulders as you recline on the deck of the sailboat docked at sea. Watery and fresh — Salado features notes of Pink Peppercorn, Orange Blossom and Cucumber submerging the wearer into salty waters. The dry down gradually takes you into natural, slightly sweet notes of Wood and Musk. Salty air and sweet breezes, Salado is a captivating aquatic perfume that will transport you to hidden ocean coves and Mediterranean waters.

HOW IT WEARS
Salado captures the tranquillity of the sea. The calm quiet when you dive beneath the waters, and the breathtaking shimmer across the surface, glittering like diamonds in the sun. Topped with a slight burst of saltiness, Salado hangs around you like a gentle sea breeze.
LORE LOVES
We love the gentle freshness. It mists around the skin, constantly waxing and waning in scent, calling you back to beach to revel in the mysteries the waters hold.

Wow. This is a really enjoyable scent from the first spray right up until the dry down. It’s a fresh scent that does smell a bit like a salad or salted cucumbers, but in the best way possible. It’s a pretty and delicate smell – completely unisex. Fresh and salty. Perfect for summer.

This is an extremely disappointing scent. Smells great as soon as sprayed from the bottle and then that’s it. It disappears into thin air and no scent is left on you. Have tried to put a little, and then a lot and it doesn’t change. Noone can smell it, so may as well wear nothing. A waste of money and unless you just want to smell the spray from the bottle, I would recommend steering clear of this and purchasing something else. Very unimpressed.

Thanks for your review Annabelle. As we have communicated in emails, its such a pity that you didn’t love the fragrance. Fragrance is so different for everyone, that’s what makes it so special. Really hope you find a new signature scent that you and your partner love soon. We absolutely love Salado and haven’t heard of this before, so we will be sure to inspect your bottle when you pop in store as discussed.
