From the brand: Sunscreen, salt-on-skin, the ocean air on the coast of Queens, where privet hedge flowers blaze beside pastel condos. NYC, in the late seventies was a magic time for music. Everywhere kids thrashed out jams of teenage angst, none more catchy than the Ramones. You could make a quick song about the simple joys of life – escaping to the beach from the dirty dungeon of humid summer in New York. I grew up by the beach and spent every day there in the summer. The scent in the air and on your skin after a dip in the water will always be home to me.
This is a limited edition fragrance that was originally created in 2020 with a run of 99 bottles. It is being re-released for a limited time only. Rockway Beach features top notes of ocean air and suntan lotion; middle notes of salt and flowering privet; and base notes of skin musk and hedges. It is an eau de parfum, edp.
D.S. & DURGA ROCKAWAY BEACH REVIEWS
Fragrantica: A photorealistic interpretation of the smells of a beach setting this aquatic offering is a strange beast. It opens with ozonic notes and the smell of suntan lotion and moves to a heart of sea salt and privet. It settles on a base of laurel, musk, a skin note and smells of the sea (sea weed perhaps?). A very bold scent because it is not only truly wearable but it is a piece of olfactory art, it is quite evocative. Reminiscent a bit of Aqua Di Sale by Profumum Roma. If you miss going to the beach, this unisex scent with moderate projection and longevity will take you there almost immediately. Enjoy!
Reddit: I literally just smelled it and it is exactly what a beach smells like. Its hard to put into words but once you take a sniff, it transports you into a tropical beach day climate. I would say it smells like Ipanema Beach in Rio though.
