Roja Burlington, Meh?
So, I was hearing a lot of hype around this perfume how people thought it was just amazing. So I had high expectations on it from the beginning. Decided to blind-buy a bottle and hope for the best. It came, I opened, I sprayed. I did not really know what to say after that. It was good for sure, but it was just nothing special, it felt a bit boring and not at all what I expected. If it would have cost 150$ I would be okey with it, but at the price-tag it has, it’s just not good enough.

A Tygar in the bush
Many a fraghead shy away from citrusy perfumes. I think it’s an unwritten rule in the sub-culture (I’m more than pleased to be a part of, however finicky). Most would scoff at this one as well. I, however, enjoy it very much given the practical opportunity: warmer weather.

Do you know the famous and popular Bvlgari Tygar? 3 notes: Grapefruit, ginger, and ambroxan. Actually quite nice. Constructed by the legendary Jacques Cavallier. Tygar is hidden here, as in a bush, behind leafy mint and spiced rum. Less BR540 airy, as Tygar is, relying on that ambroxan for that near invisible push that others enjoy and you will rarely experience after the initial sprays. This is more standard fare in such regards. You will enjoy it throughout.

It is long lasting for its genre, very pleasant, and never boring. I have to give kudos here.

Some say it’s like a mojito. I can’t disagree. It’s much more bright and citrusy than the other mojito experience you might find in Guerlain’s Homme, which is about 1/10th the price, btw, and far more floral than citrus in comparison.

Liken to colors and textures, Burlington is bright, sparkling gold-hued yellow while GH is velvety bright pink. Both are great in their own right! I get FAR more mint in Burlington, and as much of a fan of Guerlain as I am I must admit the Roja smells much more luxurious (as usual, and why I am such a fan).

There’s much more going on here than I give justice to. In the end, if you know Tygar and like the idea of that with an addition of potent mint supported by rum then you won’t go wrong here. There is certainly a Tygar hiding inside Burlington 1819.

Juicy Fruit Chewing Gum
If you're ever chewing Juicy Fruit, or are around someone who has a fresh piece in, the scent of it is so strong at first, and it's wonderful. Burlington 1819 smells so much like that. This is Juicy Fruit chewing gum with more depth.

I was not expecting that from this, based on the name of this but I have to admit I am in love with this one.

This one has really great performance, as most things from Roja do (except Oceania.....) and a really strong projection which is nice for a fruit heavy scent. I think this one would be magical on any gender, any setting.

My only real negative here is that this is super linear...and with strong performance you're getting that same smell for a long time. After a few hours it's almost too sweet, too overpowering.

I'm just not sure on this one, as much as I absolutely loved this one at first...after a few hours I'm almost wishing it would go away.

The best citrus ever
I have to mention straight away that I’m not a fan of citrus based perfumes. I don’t like those on my skin and I don’t like to smell those on anyone. I find those boring, extremely uncharming and all of those has been done a million times.

Roja Parfums Burlington 1819 IS THE ONE AND ONLY citrus scent which I love and even like.

Burlington opens up with an amazingly natural smell of fresh Grapefruit and Lime with a hint of Mint and it never gets synthetic. That smell of citruses is so realistic, so bright, uplifting and delightfully different than those million others and it lasts long time. I can even say that citruses are delicious here. In Burlington all used different citruses are blending with a delicated smokiness and beautiful mossy woody base. Tobacco is not dirty nor too dry but it's easily noticeable. I like how the fresh nature of the fragrance, thanks to both citrus and spices, is combined with warm notes like Vanilla and Benzoin which is a note reminiscent of it. Those together with Labdanum and woody notes create a more interesting fragrance with depth, power and numerous unique tones.

On my skin this scent is more simple, let's say more feminine as well, and as I test all of my scents nowadays on my husband’s skin as well I can say that the performance on his skin is deeper, darker and stronger and a bit more interesting than on my skin. What seems to be hidden on my skin is Ginger and Rum and overall the beautiful complex drydown with dark nuances is somewhat lighter on my skin - amazing anyway. Airy Saffron is barely detectable. I enjoy this scent a lot in both kind of ways how it performs but I have to admit that if it’s admirable on my skin, it’s totally unique experience on warmer skin.

Most of citrus dominated scents try to imitate Lemon or Citron (in the bad way) and I think it’s lack of imagination since there is many different citrus to use - most common ones being Bergamot, Sweet Orange, Orange Bigarade (Bitter Orange), Mandarin, Clementine, Yuzu, Lime, Lemon, Citron, Verbena and Grapefruit. Roja has chosen the best ones imo into this scent while Yuzu being my favorite as a note in perfumes from other olfactive families.

If you love citrus scents this is something which you really need in your collection. Any other citrus is not comparable with this one. This is just simply AMAZING, so special.

Addictive matureness!

Now, this thing is highly addictive! To be completely honest, this one just blew me away! I am a big fan of orientals but I wanted a fragrance which I could wear through the whole year, especially during the summer but with oriental facets..and that's exactly what Burlington 1819 is!

Lively start with sparkling lime and grapefruit as the first notes you get. Followed by uplifting mint, ginger, oakmoss and cashmere woods..then everything suddenly go quiet..like calm before the perfect storm..then you smell a beautiful blend of aformentioned notes with fresh tobacco dipped in finest rum. Benzoin, labdanum cumin and cedarwood are also prominent in the dry-down, giving this creation a truly unique feel.

This fragrance is ideal for well groomed Gentleman or rugged but stylish one too. Polivalent fragrance with many layers! Hands down, one of my favorite dry-downs ever!

longevity on my skin is good 8 hours and sillage is moderate but veeeery pleasing!

I will be wearing this one a lot!

A unique contrast between bitter citruses (led by the grapefruit) & a quirky cumin note. Does not resemble the profiles of Tygar/TDH.

Bitter and fresh citric opening with a dominant grapefruit, lime, some sweetness and mint. In the base, spices, a hint of tobacco leaf, rum.

Less fresh citrus, more licorice fougere. Smells nothing like Tygar. Dry down smells like a middle-school gym locker. Try before you buy.

Begins with a blast of woody synthetics and nice tart juicy lime. The off-putting body odor notes, cumin+ginger, continue to gain strength

Fresh, citrusy and mildly sweet opening, reminds me a lot of a sophisticated version of Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilica.

Smells like a random cheapie from a local drogerie store. Basic...
Performace is good.
Absolutely not worth the price.

A one-pitch linear grapefruit that drones on and on. I don't get the hype on this one.

The most gratifying, complex, citrus-forward fragrance I've ever smelled. It legitimately lives up to the hype.
