So much is going on in this little picture, the strumming lute player is oblivious to the activity around him, there is a fight between a man and a woman going on in the prow of the vessel and she looks like she is going to bash him with a wine ewer. A cooked chicken is lashed to the mast and a jester is drinking wine. Obviously, this is a ship without much organization and will come to no good. Debauchery pure and simple in the gentle season on the water.
To show this in perfume, I have started off with the tang of the sea and added a bit of refined leather to get things started, a roll of key lime zest and a goodly portion of faux ambergris. This is a very nice aquatic with an edge of leather and fruit which somehow combine to make a jolly, boisterous blend which is just perfect for summer!
