Answer:
Thank you very much. Before this, I never heard of these fragrances. I live in Michigan, and must do some research on where to find those names around here.
Appreciate it!

Appreciate it! Hi, Misty--Can you see me waiving from the Wisconsin side of Lake Michigan?
Like the rest of us upper Midwesterners, you're probably going to have to resort to using the internet to sample many of Tovah's fabulous recommendations. Those methods being: buying samples for about $3 each from online stores, buying samples from ebay decanters, and swapping your purchased samples (even though slightly depleted) for other samples with others via basenotes' swapping forum or the one at makeupalley.com.
We have a once-a-month spray-together on the first Saturday of the month. This Saturday it's all about florals. In coming months we'll be focusing on and talking about fresh, green, and aquatic scents. Hope you'll stay tuned and enjoy a long association in this happy place.

Answer:
Welcome to Basenotes, Misty53!

Though perfumes featuring Watery and / or Marine elements are not my usual preference (In fact I profess to hate them) I do happen to know of a few:

Estee Lauder Sunflowers
Twice Iceberg
Jesus del Pozo Duende
Pascal Morabito Miss Morabito
Borghese Profumo di Montecatini
Il Profumo Nymphea
Calvin Klein Escape
Perfumer's Workshop Samba Ice
Worth Sans Adieu
Succès de Paris Fujiyama
Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey
Alfred Sung Shi
Calvin Klein Truth
Moschino Cheap & Chic
Moschino Oh! de Moschino
TBS Crisp Cotton
TBS Oceanus
Frederic Malle Lys Méditerranée
Azzaro Eau Belle
Montana Blu
Byblos Ghiaccio / Byblos Ice
Elizabeth Arden True love
Cacharel Eau de Eden
Davidoff Cool Water
Davidoff Cool Water Game
Kenneth Cole Black
Laura Biagiotti Laura
Oscar de la Renta So
Liz Claiborne Curve

The oddest thing is (for someone who hates this type of perfume) I happen to own many of those listed...

Answer:
Among the fragrance junkies, "fresh and light", especially as associated with "marine and ozonic", are becoming curse words. I do not know WHY, because some of them are really nice fragrances, refreshing, long-lasting and comfortable. The effect of freshness is achieved through different means: citrus, white florals, greens, light woods and musks and their combinations. Surely, we will discuss them in-depth in the forthcoming S'n'S days, like Quarry said, so please stay tuned!
To the nice lists above, may I add the following:
-- Rochas Aquawoman -- nice full-bodied and rounded fragrance, get it while you can because it is getting harder and harder to come by, marine freshness without being particulary floral, citrucy or musky, it is surprisingly nice even during the cooler seasons;
-- L'Eau par Kenzo -- smelling of freshness and cucumbers (I just see many people roll their eyes and gag right here! ), one of the staples of mine a decade ago, thinking of getting a small decant to revive the past;
-- Byblos Mare -- for about $20 dollars for 4.2 oz bottle one can refresh it during the day as many times as need be, however one woody note in it somehow gets cloying on me and I have to be in the mood to thoroughly enjoy Mare;
-- Sonia Rykiel Blue (pullover) -- citrucy floral, harsh on opening and gentle like a summer breeze during the development, but I am a fan of Sonia in general;
-- my SOTD La Perla Blue -- very long-lasting and envigorating, cool and powdery due to the nicely done iris note, can be easily mistaken for the niche 10 times more expensive than it is!
My apologies to the fellow fragrance lovers who can't stand "The Blues"!

I hope those icebergs don't reform. Blustery weather here. Chilling and numbing.
Thank you for refreshing my mind about fresh fragrance. I think I will have fun at this site.

Answer:
My daughter loves New West by Aramis - light, airy, non-floral marine.
Mare by Creative Universe is an honest but not exactly 'fresh' marine - you can smell the salt and algae in this one more than New West.
Donna by Compagnia Delle Indie has oceanic, dusty driftwood, and pale floral notes. Light and breezy.
It's not exactly oceanic, but it still feels that way to me - Acqu Di Parma's Blu Mediterraneo Cipresso Di Toscana (Tuscan Cypress) - the opening is so light, blue and watery it always sticks in my mind as an oceanic.
Finally, one that isn't oceanic, but worth a sample anyway - Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana. The name says it all.

Happy Spring!
