Overall impression
Our Projects Ocean by Dusk is a unisex eau de parfum from Our Projects, a brand from Indonesia.
The composition combines the freshness of citrus, the spicy-green facet of juniper berries, floral softness, and a deep woody base.
The fragrance belongs to the fougère and floral families, but its character goes beyond light, airy freshness.
Ocean by Dusk reveals a striking contrast between its sparkling opening and rich finish, resulting in a multilayered, warm, and memorable scent.
Structure and development
The composition opens with a citrus accord and juniper berries. This duo creates a feeling of cool, clean air and adds a dynamic green-fruity facet to the fragrance.
Champaca and neroli appear at the heart: the floral notes make the transition rounder, sunnier, and softer.
As the fragrance develops, the fresh nuances give way to honeyed sweetness and oud depth, forming a rich base with a distinct oriental mood.
Character and wearability
Ocean by Dusk is positioned as a fragrance for women and men who enjoy contrasting compositions with a strong presence.
Thanks to its very powerful sillage, it is especially suited to occasions when you want to make an impression: evening gatherings, formal events, and walks in cool weather.
For the office or a small room, it is best applied sparingly, as its presence quickly becomes noticeable to those around you.
Precise recommendations for applying it to skin and clothing, as well as information about other concentrations, are not provided in the available data. It is therefore best to start with one or two sprays and increase the intensity if needed.
Its place in the Our Projects style
This release demonstrates Our Projects’ interest in expressive perfumery, where fresh and floral accents meet dense oriental materials.
The result is not simply a light “oceanic” fragrance, but a deeper interpretation of a twilight mood—with a vivid opening, a floral heart, and a dark woody drydown.
The year of release, collection affiliation, and perfumer’s name are not listed in the database.
Nevertheless, the combination of citrus, neroli, honey, and oud makes it easy to imagine this fragrance on the skin as a striking accent, especially if you enjoy noticeable unisex compositions with high longevity and rich sillage.
