Filippo Sorcinelli Unda Maris 8 is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2018. Unda Maris 8 opens with Citron, Myrtle, Jasmine, and Artemisia, settles into a heart of Sea Water, Geranium, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Clean Musk. Filippo Sorcinelli's Unda Maris 8 carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a wild ride. Unda Maris 8 is a divisive marine-incense blend that some find uniquely captivating, others utterly horrendous. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but if you're after something out of the ordinary, it's worth a sniff.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its moderate sillage and unique character make it suitable for casual wear or an interesting date scent. However, its intensity and polarizing nature mean it's less ideal for formal events or the office, where it might be too distracting, and definitely not for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf/Twig Oil from Eucalyptus
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Unda Maris 8 opens with a vibrant, almost camphorous burst of eucalyptus and sharp citron, underpinned by herbal myrtle and artemisia, evoking a windswept coastline. As it settles, a distinctive marine accord emerges, blended with a hint of nutmeg and delicate geranium. The dry-down introduces a profound depth of incense and patchouli, softened by vanilla and tonka bean, culminating in a mysterious, contemplative embrace of sea and smoke.
