The story behind the bottle.
CH Marine, launched by Carolina Herrera in 2011, is a fragrance that captures the essence of freshness and aquatic elegance. The composition opens with bright citrus notes like grapefruit and bergamot, which give way to water-like aromas and a touch of fresh spices. The heart features jasmine and rose, adding floral warmth before settling into a base of leather, musk, and sandalwood that reads as a sophisticated blend of earthy and woody tones.
One generous spritz is enough for this fragrance to project well. The bright citrus opening fades after about two hours, so it's best applied just before heading out. CH Marine reads better close to skin than across a room, making it ideal for daytime wear.
