Extorting compliments

An amazing perfume, both its opening and its drying are amazing.
It's so luxurious that every time I wear it, I imagine I'm on a luxury yacht.
Suitable for summer and spring mainly, I really like it.

Interesting notes of grass, lime , Blackcurrant, champaca flower and coconut take this perfume to very special places.

And his presentation is so amazing!

Of course this is a renewal of the old perfume Oligarch Eau de Parfum .

Definitely worth the price tag.

8.5/10.

They are called luxury brands

How can you call something luxury overpriced? It means you are not interested in the product.

Roja as we know is a high brand, like any other luxury brand, so the word overpriced makes no sense.

The big problem with reviews is not being focused in the context of a product.

Finally I can say that as an owner of hundreds of perfumes, from the most indie to the most luxury, this is an exceptional work, perfectly balanced (not like those horrible clones) by a nose who has worked a lifetime for quality and to achieve almost perfection in his works.

Simple does not mean banal or overpriced, on the contrary, well-made simplicity is the most difficult thing to do, but objectively, all Roja works can boast of their ethereal beauty

Ps.

this doesn't even remotely resemble Hermes (respect the work) but not in 1000 years

The original one, Oligarch.

Oligarch is a fragrance for a true oligarch, who spends summer vacations on his yacht in the most enchanting locations overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
Fresh, citrusy, crisp and aromatic.
As in all Roja creations, it is difficult to separate the various notes that compose them, but I can say that juniper, citrus and pink pepper are well perceived.
The woody structure holds all the volatile components very well, providing truly remarkable longevity for the type of fragrance.
Despite not being a lover of the genre, I must say that I like it very much: it is fresh, clean, but at the same time has depth.

14 Swarovski cap, engravings and gold plate.

PPS: Oligarch was discontinued due to the war between Russia and Ukraine and was put back on the market under the name of "Isola Blu"... But the original it's only one.

Meh. More generic 'blue' but with an exorbitant price tag.

It's official. I'm a bonafide member of the "I hate the 'aqua/marine' designation that's associated with a generic 'blue' accord in men's perfumes" club. It's a MARKETING PLOY! Literally a scheme cooked up by corporate advertising suits in NYC after running focus groups on a bunch of impressionable dullards. And judging by the reviews here on Parfumo, fragrance enthusiasts appear to be no less resilient to being afflicted by this virulent PSYOP. After all, young men are eager and willing to open their wallets for the "upscale" experience of wearing a brand like Roja!

NO, this fragrance does NOT remind you of relaxing and sipping cocktails on a boat in the Mediterranean. That is a false association that was seeded in your brain, and subsequently watered, fed, and mimetically nurtured in your subconscious through your overindulgence in online perfume media run by shysters. Do you know what being on a boat in Italy actually smells like? Brackish salt brine, iodine-heavy kelp, crustaceans + mollusks, a hint of olive trees, a whiff of herbal aperitif from the Campari you spilled on your shirt earlier that day, and a vaguely fecal/humanoid-musk note that varies in intensity depending upon how near you are to a major urban area. This doesn't smell like that. At all.

Is Isola Blu a mass-appealing, citrus-forward, 'blue' scent? Absolutely. If that's what you're into, fantastic -- go forth and wear young man! But don't pretend that this somehow "captures the essence of an aquatic lifestyle" (*I just experienced pure physical revolt and cringe by typing that*). But remember, the market for synthetic 'blue' fragrances is completely saturated, and there are perhaps hundreds of options available to you as a consumer. If you feel inclined to drop $500 MSRP for 50mL of Isola Blu, more power to you, but you could also just get the sufficiently similar Blue Talisman by Ex Nihilo at half the price. Meanwhile, if you want something that's been thoughtfully composed, is uniquely refreshing, and does a fine job of capturing the aroma of coastal myrtle trees and salty, kelp-laden bodies of water -- go try Acqua di Sale by Profumum Roma and thank me later.

Blended and Perfected, and Redundant thats ok.

I read the reviews both good and bad. I tend to trust reviewers who are fans of this dna that's similar to TDH edt. The opening I can understand the negative mosquito repellant statement. I can see that, but I look past it and really appreciate the note structure and development of this fragrance. It's more than just a simple fragrance statement. It's what alot of positive reviewers say that "It smells luxurious." It does and smells blended to perfection. The vanilla and coconut notes really round it out nice! It's just a tiny sweet around the edges. Also i dont see vetiver in the note breakdown, but there has to be vetiver in the fragrance somewhere. I smell a high quality vetiver in this in my opinion. My third fragrance from the house of Roja. Roja fragrances are of high quality on both the fragrance ingredients and bottle presentation. This is just off my first spray on my hand and it's a happy yes for me!
