Perfume Parlour Sea Cyan is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Sea Cyan opens with Aquatic, Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Fig Leaf, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Violet Leaf, Pepper, and Ambroxan, and dries down to a base of Musk, Saffron, Tonka Bean, and Incense. Perfume Parlour's Sea Cyan carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Sea Cyan chases Versace Pour Homme Dylan Blue - the same fresh aquatic-citrus opening over an ambroxan-and-patchouli base. The dupe captures the clean, versatile blue-fragrance vibe but renders flatter and softer-projecting than the original.

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.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Sea Cyan opens crisp and breezy with grapefruit, Calabrian bergamot, fig leaf and an aquatic accord - the fresh, Mediterranean overture that made Versace Dylan Blue a daily-driver favourite. The heart adds ambroxan, black pepper and patchouli for a slightly woody, ambery lift, while saffron, tonka, incense and musk round out a warm, clean base. Perfume Parlour's version captures that put-together, confident blue-fragrance character. Against the original it reads simpler and skin-closer - the ambroxan less radiant, the woods softer, and projection more reserved where the original throws strongly in its first hours. Longevity is moderate. An easy, affordable everyday fresh fragrance that works in warm weather and slots neatly into office and casual rotations.
