Our take
What does Sedley smell like?
Released in 2019, Sedley is Parfums de Marly's answer to the demand for freshness, from a house better known for warmer compositions. The opening is invigorating: lemon, mint, bergamot and grapefruit form a minty citrus cocktail, crisp and very bracing. The heart adds lavender, rosemary and geranium, an aromatic trio that suggests an herb garden and cleanliness. The base of ambroxan, sandalwood, vetiver, cedar and patchouli gives a woody, mineral footing that extends the freshness without dulling it. The result is bright, airy and firmly summery, and pleasantly unisex. Think of a luxury fresh splash that lasts better than most citrus scents.
