The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022, Pure Water by Hej Pure is an aromatic aquatic fragrance for women created by the renowned perfumer Paul Guerlain. The composition opens with a bright and fresh blend of white florals and fruity notes, which are complemented by a salty, marine accord that gives it a crisp, oceanic character. The sweet undertones add depth without overpowering the overall freshness, making it a versatile scent for both day and night.

How to wear it

Pure Water's moderate longevity and sillage mean it's best applied two to three times for a lasting effect. The marine notes are most pronounced in the first hour, so plan your application accordingly — ideal for a morning commute or an afternoon meeting.
