H - The Exclusive Parfum pour Homme Roja Parfums 2015

H - The Exclusive Parfum pour Homme I bought blindly in the hope of finding a better and more noble Tom Ford Plum Japonais, as that has unfortunately been discontinued. Unfortunately, this also applies to H - The Exclusive Parfum pour Homme, but at least this one is still available. Roja fragrances generally don't have it easy with me, as some may know. The price always triggers facial paralysis for me. This is no different with H - The Exclusive Parfum pour Homme, but here I could somehow justify the expenditure for my inner self.

H - The Exclusive Parfum pour Homme is a delicately fruity, fresh, and oriental scent. I couldn't really detect the freshness of the top note, but that didn't bother me much here. H - The Exclusive Parfum pour Homme starts off with the plum, which is gently accompanied by oud. For me, oud and plum are the main players here. The other notes in the base note rather soften the oud and create a gentle framework around the whole thing. I can perceive woods, patchouli, amber, and sandalwood, but I couldn't identify the vetiver and the pepper note.

The longevity is in a good range with 9-10 hours; it could have been a bit more. However, I find the sillage rather disappointing. Here, the sillage is more like an arm's length away and after about 6 hours, it's already very close to the skin. I really expected more in this case. I only accept this because the scent has absolutely blown me away; otherwise, it would have already ended up in the souk for that reason.
