The review

On paper, Sea Writing is a reasonable bet if you want Water Calligraphy for less.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Water Calligraphy's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

Strength9.5
Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on bergamot and green tea, turns to lotus and jasmine, and settles into musk, cedarwood and amber. That is the brief Sea Writing is working from.

Lotus and green tea over damp stone, transparent as brushwork drying on pavement.
