This here Ocean Noir, it’s somethin’ else, I tell ya. Ain’t never seen nothin’ like it. Like that big ol’ sea, deep and dark, full of secrets, ya know? This fella, Michael Malul, he’s the one behind it. Smart fella, I reckon, makin’ somethin’ so…so different.
Now, they call it “Ocean Noir” like it’s some kinda movie or somethin’. But it ain’t just pictures, it’s a feeling, a smell, all mixed up. Like when you’re down by the water, and the wind’s blowin’, and you smell that salty air? It’s like that, but more. Deeper, like I said. Darker, too.
They say it’s got this smell…what’s that fancy word? “Fragrance,” yeah, that’s it. Smells like the ocean, but also like…like them fancy fruits. Tangelo, they call one of ’em. And somethin’ called “black coconut.” Never heard of a black coconut before, but I guess it smells good, mixed in with all that ocean smell. There are some other smells, too. Sea kelp, you know the smell if you see it on the beach. Yarrow, I know what that is, used to grow that in the garden. It smells like grass and flowers and it also smells good. And geranium, that’s a pretty flower, red and pink. Amberwood, I don’t know what it is, but I guess it’s some kind of wood.

They say this Ocean Noir is for men. It is a man’s smell. Like a strong man, a workin’ man. But not like sweat, no. More like…like a man who’s been out on the sea, you know? Got that salt and wind on him. Smells clean, but also kinda wild. Makes ya think of adventure, and maybe a little bit of danger, too. Like that ocean, it can be calm one minute, and a storm the next. This Ocean Noir, it’s got both of those in it, I reckon.
This Michael Malul fella, he made somethin’ special with this Ocean Noir. Somethin’ that makes ya think, makes ya feel. It ain’t just a smell, it’s a story. A story about the ocean, and about men, and about all them secrets that are hid down there in the deep. It’s like he bottled up a piece of the ocean, a piece of the mystery. They say there are animals down there, big whales and fish. It must be dark down there, and cold. I saw it on TV one time, those shows about the ocean, they say there are many creatures. Some of them are scary, but most of them are beautiful. And plants, too. They say there’s life all the way down, even where the sun don’t shine. Even when it’s dark, life finds a way. That’s what they say. Sounds like magic, but I guess it’s true.
And that’s what this Ocean Noir is like, I think. It’s like a little piece of that magic. A little piece of that deep, dark ocean, right there in a bottle. It’s a man’s smell, but it’s more than that. It’s a smell that tells a story. This Michael Malul, he’s a storyteller, I reckon. He tells his stories with smells, instead of words. And this Ocean Noir, it’s one of his best stories yet. It’s a good story, a deep story. A story that stays with ya, like the smell of the ocean on a windy day.
This Ocean Noir, it’s like nothin’ I ever seen before. It’s somethin’ new, somethin’ different. And I like it. I like it a lot. This new smell, Ocean Noir Dive, they say it was made in 2022. I don’t know what that means, but I guess it’s a new thing. They say it’s like the old one, but different. More orange smell, I think. I don’t know, I haven’t smelled it yet. But if it’s like the other one, I bet it’s good. This Michael Malul, he knows what he’s doin’.
It’s like a mystery, somethin’ you can’t quite figure out, that keeps on callin’ you to it. Like them stories about the sea, you always want to know more, what is in the deep dark water, you know, what happens next, what is the next mystery? This Ocean Noir, it’s like that, it has lots of mystery, makes you wonder and think about all kinds of things. It’s good to wonder, makes life interestin’, like a good story that keeps you guessin’.
So, yeah, this Ocean Noir, it’s somethin’ else. If you get a chance, you should give it a try, you should go to the store and try it, see what all the fuss is about. You might like it, you might not, but it is different, it will make you think of things, make you feel things. It is like the ocean, big and deep and full of secrets. And who knows, maybe it will tell you a story, too. Maybe you will like the story, maybe you won’t, but it will be a story, and that is somethin’, ain’t it?
