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
This is the scent of someone who moves with purpose and leaves a trail of cool air behind them. Its mineral saltiness and clean woods suit close, active settings where the fragrance can feel sharp, lucid and quietly magnetic rather than loud.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, where its marine brightness and woody drydown can breathe without turning thin. Two to four sprays are usually enough; on skin it reads crisp and salty, while in the air the ambergris and sandalwood give it a smoother, more sensual wake.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like marine scents with structure, dryness and a natural, slightly salty edge. It will appeal to those who prefer fresh fragrances with depth, especially if they enjoy woods, ambergris and a clean but not aquatic-cologne style.

The nose
Pierre Guillaume is the founder and in-house perfumer of Pierre Guillaume Paris, a creator known for combining modern materials with a very tactile, naturalistic style. His work often balances clarity and texture, using precise accords to make familiar themes feel more vivid and contemporary. For Entre Ciel et Mer, that approach is especially clear: the marine effect is built with molecular distillation of Pacific algae, then grounded with ambergris, lichen and sandalwood. The result reflects his signature interest in contrast — airy and mineral, but also warm, sensual and wearable.
Pierre Guillaume Cruise/Croisiere’s story
Pierre Guillaume Paris is an independent French house built around the idea of artistic freedom without rigidity. Its perfumes tend to be modern, unisex and concept-driven, but always designed to remain wearable, with a strong interest in materials, texture and technical innovation.
Entre Ciel et Mer’s concept
Entre Ciel et Mer, meaning "Between sky and sea," was conceived as a marine poem inspired by etesian winds, azure horizons and the sensation of moving over the water at speed. The composition uses a glacial opening of leaves, lavender, pear and white thyme, then turns to algae, ambergris and lichen before drying down into cedar moss and New Caledonian sandalwood.
Extra info
Part of Pierre Guillaume’s Croisière collection, Entre Ciel et Mer is classified as a woody fresh marine fragrance and is presented by the house as a bestseller. Its seawater effect is built from Pacific algae rather than a generic aquatic accord, which gives it a more textured, iodic feel.
