The review
On paper, Crashing Waves is a reasonable bet if you want Pacific Rock Moss for less.
Scentual Obsessions lists 3 of the 7 notes in Pacific Rock Moss's pyramid — lemon, coastal moss and musk. What it does not list: bergamot, sea salt, vetiver and woods; and it adds sage, geranium and cedarwood of its own.
At $133 per 100ml it costs 78% less than Pacific Rock Moss — the 5th cheapest of 5 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

What it's built to smell like
The original opens on bergamot and lemon, turns to coastal moss and sea salt, and settles into vetiver, musk and woods. That is the brief Crashing Waves is working from.

Lemon and salt over damp coastal moss — the cleanest possible reading of an Australian shoreline.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
