A marine poem composed wave after wave…
Entre ciel et Mer (“Between sky and sea”) tells a story of Etesian winds, azure skies and flying over seascapes at top speed…
Icy, soaring and powerful, the first whiff feels as though it had been sculpted out of the Meltem – the north wind that blows over the Aegean Sea, with notes of crumpled, water-splashed leaves and the fruity-aromatic nuances of a lavender, pear and white thyme accord.
The scent’s convincing seawater effect is achieved through a molecular distillation of algae from the Pacific, with iodic and animalic notes of white lichen and ambergris.
The dry, almost mineral facets are balanced out with cedar, moss and sandalwood from New Caledonia.
A strikingly good interpretation of the marine theme.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Think of the pause after coming out of cold surf: salt drying on skin, wind catching a loose shirt, conversation still carrying the energy of the water. Its icy marine opening and dry woody undertow suggest an informal, physical presence, with ambergris adding intimacy beneath the expansive freshness.
How to wear
A natural choice for mild to warm weather, when the icy marine accord can contrast with warm skin. Start with one or two sprays on the chest or forearms; keeping application light lets the aromatic opening breathe without crowding the salt-and-algae effect. The dry woods provide a counterweight as the initial freshness settles.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to briny, mineral aquatics rather than sweet beach fragrances. It suits a taste for aromatic freshness with an unconventional edge: algae, iodic nuances and subtly animalic ambergris, grounded by dry sandalwood and cedar.

The nose
Pierre Guillaume is a self-taught perfumer with a background in chemistry, known for combining technical experimentation with sensual, wearable compositions. His work ranges from the tobacco-spice richness of Cozé to the soft tea-and-musk textures of Le Musc & La Peau. In Entre Ciel et Mer, he brings that experimental approach to marine perfumery, using Pacific-algae distillation to evoke cold seawater rather than a purely abstract aquatic freshness.
Pierre Guillaume Cruise/Croisiere’s story
Pierre Guillaume’s independent house approaches perfume through chemistry, texture and poetic association, with design and manufacture based in Auvergne. Its compositions balance inventive effects with wearability. Collection Croisière extends this approach into imaginary travel, exploring aquatic fragrances beyond familiar salt-and-Calone conventions.
Entre Ciel et Mer’s concept
Entre Ciel et Mer grew from the image of a surfer suspended between sea and sky, with cold seawater on skin and an icy wind overhead. Its atmospheric brief connects the Aegean Meltem wind with a Pacific-algae distillate, setting iodic, animalic marine impressions against dry woods. Within Collection Croisière, it represents an imagined escape rather than a literal travel diary.
Extra info
The name translates as “Between sky and sea,” while Croisière means “cruise” and identifies the collection. Despite its escapist theme, Guillaume joked during the launch interview that he disliked leaving his home, laboratory and cats.
