The smell comes from all the things that are present in seawater, seen and unseen. Things like plankton, microscopic bugs, etc. contribute to the smell of seawater. Then there are the big things like the salt, animals and fish that live and die in the sea, and good old seaweed. When plants and animals die and decompose they give off odors. Plus there are the things that humans put into the seawater, like oil and garbage. When we smell seawater, we're actually smelling a combination of the above factors.

isn't that why you used the shrimp for the seawater scent and style? in keeping with hazard you probably did no longer sparkling the shrimp -- specifically situations they arrive total -- or you will possibly be able to might desire to bathe them first. in the event that they seem to be somewhat off, they have a good "fishy" scent. confirm they are frozen all the time in the previous using so as that they stay sparkling. or maybe attempt crimson meat next time!

The briny smell is caused by the salt & minerals found in ocean.
The rotten egg odor is caused by hydrogen sulfide gas in the water.
