OLTREMARE

Bois 1920 presents Oltremare, a unisex aromatic-aquatic Eau de Parfum, 18 ml and 50 ml: a disruptive debut that opens a luminous passage toward faraway horizons.

The Fragrance

Oltremare is born as a sharp break from the maison's more conventional citrus scents: the name itself, evoking lands beyond the sea, speaks to a desire to push past the usual boundaries. Bois 1920 builds a bold aromatic-aquatic composition, balancing Mediterranean vibrancy with a more exotic, adventurous breath.

How It Evolves on Skin

The opening is a burst of vibrant citrus — green lemon, lime, sweet Brazilian orange, Sicilian lemon, bergamot and bigarade — that explodes with immediacy from the very first moment. The heart warms into tea, red tea and maté, enriched with rhubarb and juniper berries, while geranium, hyacinth and violet add an unexpected floral streak. The base settles on sandalwood and ambergris, supported by white musk and patchouli, a foundation that anchors the initial freshness with warmth and staying power.

Who We Recommend Oltremare To

A fragrance for those who love citrus scents that don't stay on the surface, capable of evolving toward a warmer, spicier direction over the hours. Suited to anyone after immediate energy without giving up a base that carries the day through to the end, it's perfect for relaxed everyday wear in any season.

Fragrance Characteristics

Our Opinion

Oltremare is one of the most surprising citrus fragrances we carry: you expect the usual freshness and instead find a scent that changes skin within the hour, with a warmer, more enveloping character than the opening lets on. It's the kind of surprise that wins over even those who thought they already knew this genre of fragrance.

• Green Ice (Devertere) — brings back juniper berries, rhubarb and white musk, developed over a fresher, woodier accord.
• Blu Mare (Giardini Di Toscana) — shares bergamot, lemon and ambergris, in a more marine, aquatic guise.

FAQ

What does the name "Oltremare" mean?
The name evokes horizons beyond the sea, a fragrance made for those who love pushing past the boundaries of classic citrus scents toward less obvious olfactory territory.

Is it a fragrance for every season?
Yes: the fresh citrus opening makes it perfect for summer, while the warm sandalwood-and-amber base gives it enough body to work well through the colder months too.

How does it differ from Agrumi Amari di Sicilia, another citrus scent in the collection?
Agrumi Amari di Sicilia stays true to a direct Mediterranean register, with no watery notes; Oltremare instead opens on a tea-and-rhubarb heart, more aromatic and complex, that carries it toward an aquatic register.
