Korean Perfumery: How K-Beauty Came to Fragrances
At first, the world fell in love with Korean creams and sheet masks. Then it was the turn of scent, ...
Ocean Drive joined the Mootes portfolio in 2022. By character, a masculine fragrance drawing from the wood, floral, and citrus families. In eau de parfum — and that's all it takes to fall in love.
Country of origin — Switzerland. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The olfactory structure of Ocean Drive is built as a continuous scent journey, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Mootes comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
When the structure is mixed the fragrance opens as a single chord with a glittering citrus mood: Bergamot, Bitter Orange, Grapefruit, Patchouli, Vanilla and ylang-ylang. In this format 6 notes act as one coherent layer, building a sensation of cool purity that feels seamless.
The heart and base are perceived as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
The olfactory framework is built around these accords: Citrus, Floral, Wood and Spicy forming a compact and readable structure.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Citrus, Wood, Gourmet and Whiteflower. The framework further includes Floral.
Taken together Ocean Drive holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best understood through real development.
