Odin is highest and eldest of the Æsir: he rules all things, and mighty as are the other gods, they all serve him as children obey a father.
The All-Father, Lord of Wisdom and War. Odin’s name itself translates to “fury”, “excitation” and “poetry” and that is the core of His essence. He is the God of Victory, and holds sway over hunting, verse, war-lust and berserkers, magic, illumination, foresight, death, plots and machinations, and He dispenses the Mead of Inspiration to poets from his sacred vessel, Óõ-rœri. He gifted mankind with runes, both sacred and mundane, and the ability to use them for both communication and magical work. He grants glory and madness, inspiration and courage, power and wisdom. He commands the einheriar of his Hall, Valhalla, and the Valkyries that claim the souls of valiant warriors. Lord Odin’s favored weapon is the spear Gugnir, which he uses to claim those chosen to die in battle. He is accompanied by his ravens, Hugin and Munin [thought and memory], and his wolves, Geri and Freki [the Greedy], and rides an eight-legged horse, Sleipner, that is, in itself, symbolic of death. His scent is dry elm bark, amaranth, warrior’s musk, and Odin’s Nine Herbs of Power.

I spent weeks trying to decide which scent to choose, and I’m so glad I wound up deciding on this one. It’s beautiful, unique, light and powerful at the same time. To me it’s a perfect balance of masculine and feminine, which is exactly what I wanted.

I like this one a lot. It’s a very fresh, clear scent. Citrus and aquatic mixing together seamlessly. It actually smells very much like another of Bpal’s aquatic perfumes, Lightning…only Lightning has an “ozone ” addition which adds a wildness to this otherwise peaceful clean scent. Basically, they’re both really good; it just depends on what you’re looking for

I’m a guy, and my body chemistry does not do well with sweeter smelling scents (CKOne on me smells like I rolled around in a perfumerie’s lab dumpster). I usually react will to colognes like Drakkar Noir or Invictus. That said, Sea of Glass smells VERY good on me, and presents as a clean, bright smell. Like I just stepped out of a nice hot shower, using very expensive men’s soap, but for 8 hours. My wife said “You smell handsome and you smell like you’ve…I dunno…someone who has their shit together. You smell responsible.”
Very difficult to describe, but that’s about as close as I can get to a description. I wear it on date-night with wife. It could be called “Sea of Glass” or it could be called “You’re gonna get lucky tonight my dude.” Works for me.

This scent makes me feel wise, tranquil, and eternal. A soft, calming scent that evokes the quiet serenity of still water. I am in love.

I’m sitting on the beach in a bower of white lilies. Just beautiful. Will want many bottles of this!

As a huge fan of ocean-inspired scents, I can tell you that Sea of Glass smells like the Mediterranean ocean. It is bright, luminous, colorful and sparkling and it actually kinda reminds me of Elizabeth Arden’s Green Tea perfume. This fragrance is also multi-dimensional with some lemon citrusy zest, but the citrus feels more smooth and juicy than acrid (and while there is a saltiness to it, it’s more like a faint salty spray that I could only detect if I press my nose against my wrist). So in conclusion: I’m glad to have tried this–this is a great starter in testing out BPAL’s aquatics, 5/5!

Reminds me of aquatic scented candles. Very fresh smelling and refreshing. I will use this as a summer scent or as a room scent.

This is another scent that I find works better as a room scent and/or masculine scent. It smells really fresh and watery. It makes me think of spring cleaning in a good way. I love how it smells, but it’s not the right smell for me. I passed it on to my BF and he’s wild about it. I like it on him a lot.

The description on this seemed a bit vague to me, but now that I’ve smelled it I can’t really describe it any better than BP did. Refreshing, energetic? It’s very nice, whatever it is.
