How do their notes compare?

The named notes for DUA Lover Of Sea include Grapefruit, Bergamot, Leather, Jasmine, Marine notes and Amber. Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777 Sea My Love lists Salt, Mandarin, Marine notes, Leather, Jasmine and Amber among its own notes.

Use those notes as a guide when trying the pair. What matters is how they fit together: a brighter opening, a softer floral middle or a drier base can change the whole impression even when some of the ingredients sound familiar.

What would we look for in a sample?

We’d compare the marine impression with the leather and amber. If you expect a light aquatic, give the richer base enough time before choosing a bottle.

If you can get samples of both, use a similar amount and give each one time on skin. Come back to the comparison later in the day, especially if the opening and the base appeal to you for different reasons.
