All of us here at Haeckels are Thalassophiles. We love the ocean, we’re pulled towards it like a magnet and love the properties it brings to our home town of Margate.

We’ve always wanted to create ‘Ocean in a can’ just like the famous ‘Canadian Air’ or Icelandic Mountain Air however it is only now that we’ve managed it. During some work with our lab to create new skin care products we discovered that one of the by-products created was a distillate and with some additional work this has become the ocean, but in a bottle.

This is a real scent. No hints of roses or a suggestion of grandness, this is pure ocean distillate and the aroma of the sea distilled from locally harvested bladderwrack. The original coastal scent. This is the same scent people have experienced on our coastline for thousands of years. Nothing added. Pure.
