Blue Mystral

Blue Mystral is an alcohol-free perfume oil from Samad Fragrances, and the freshest scent in its range. The brand describes cold mint and grapefruit first, like the first step into the sea, then clary sage bringing a green, herbal calm, and a dry-down of cedarwood and clean sea air. Mint and grapefruit give a sharp, cooling opening, clary sage adds a herbal middle that is less common than lavender, and cedarwood and calone finish it with a dry woody base and an aquatic, ozonic note. The shop describes it as aquatic, citrus and fresh, and it is sold as unisex. Calone, the molecule behind the sea-air effect, is a familiar part of modern aquatic perfumes, so the character is close to the clean marine fragrances many people wear in summer. Samad says the oil is alcohol-free, lasts 10 to 12 hours on skin and needs only one dab on each wrist, so it should sit closer to the skin than a spray. It comes in 10ml and 15ml bottles. No independent wearer reviews were found at the time of writing, so the performance scores are taken from the brand's own claims and the oil format, not from reported wear. The shop lists it as sold out at the time of writing. It suits spring and summer, the office and casual wear, and it is the natural choice from this house for anyone who finds oils too heavy.
