Fragrance information:

Meet: Maison Afford The Sailor — a fragrance that sounds like a breath of fresh sea breeze, but with German thoroughness.

Released in the concentration of perfume extract, it promises not just a sillage, but a real trail that is memorable.

This is a unisex composition for those who appreciate character and are not afraid to be noticed.

Character and Mood

The Sailor is a fougère-spicy cocktail with a very strong sillage. The fragrance does not try to be gentle: it is bold, fresh, and at the same time warming.

Imagine a sailor who has come ashore after a long voyage: the smells of salt, spices, and wood are mixed in his clothes.

There is room for the coolness of mint, the tartness of lavender, and the sweetness of vanilla with tonka beans.

This is an ideal choice for evening outings or cool days when you want to wrap yourself in a fragrant cocoon.

Olfactory Pyramid

The composition unfolds in a multifaceted way. The top notes bring the freshness of lavender and bergamot, which instantly lift the mood.

The heart is spicy and herbaceous: cinnamon, cardamom, cumin, and tarragon intertwine with floral neroli.

The base is warm and cozy: cedar, sandalwood, amber, vanilla, and tonka beans create a velvety sillage that lingers on skin and clothes for many hours.

Longevity and Sillage

As befits an extract, the longevity of the fragrance is impressive: it lives on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, and can last on clothes for days.

The sillage is very strong, so one or two sprays are enough to make a statement. Be prepared for compliments — no one will pass you by indifferently.

How to Wear

The Sailor is a versatile unisex. It is equally good on men and women who love bright, charismatic fragrances.

It unfolds best in cool weather — autumn, winter, and early spring. Perfect for parties, dates, or simply to emphasize your individuality.

And if you want to try something similar, check out BK Perfumes #1002 — it also plays on the contrast of freshness and spice.

Description of the composition

The Sailor composition is built on contrasts. In the top notes, refreshing bergamot and mint instantly invigorate.

Then in the heart, spicy notes unfold: cinnamon, cardamom, and cumin — they add warmth and complexity. Lavender and neroli add floral softness, while tarragon adds a subtle bitterness.

The base is a luxurious combination of cedar, sandalwood, amber, vanilla, and tonka beans, creating a deep, velvety trail.

All notes intertwine without overpowering each other, providing hours of enjoyment.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
