Across the Ocean opens with Cashmere Wood, Bergamot, Lemon, and Oud, settles into a heart of Rose and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Musk, Guaiac Wood, and Vanilla. Gravel's Across the Ocean carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Across the Ocean pairs lemon and bergamot with oud, rose and a warm base of vanilla, musk and guaiac wood. It is a smooth, wearable take on oud rather than a heavy one. A solid unisex pick.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

About

Across the Ocean opens with lemon and bergamot for a bright lift, set against cashmere wood and oud for a dark woody edge. The heart brings rose and tonka bean, a mix of floral and sweet warmth. In the base, musk, vanilla and guaiac wood leave a soft, creamy and smoky finish. As an eau de parfum it is a warm, woody scent, with citrus keeping the oud from feeling too heavy. It is balanced and easy to wear.
