Oceania Parfum

I have had the EDP on my left hand and wrist all day. And the new Parfum on my right hand and wrist all day. In my opinion, in the opening the Parfum is much better in scent, projection and overall quality. The Parfum is richer, sweeter, brighter, louder and better blended than the EDP. All the way through the mid and early dry down, I was actually surprised and a bit disappointed that I liked the Parfum so much. I was hoping that it would feel redundant and unnecessary to a person who already has the EDP. I became worried I would be forced to buy it due to its magnificence. And then the dry down happened ... a subtle cumin/coriander Schweddy Balls smell appeared. I have smelled the same thing in several other popular Roja fragrances, especially Burlington. I don't find it to be sexy, flirty, fun, pleasant, or even neutral. I actually find it to be gross and disgusting, so thankfully, I will not have to buy this Parfum. The BO is very subtle, but it is there, at least for me. It is not there whatsoever in the EDP, so I am happy to stick with my EDP.

okay what..i know this is a new release but this is so perfect people should talk about this, is heaven bottled yes its worth the pricetag yes this is the best fragrancee ever made and ill take that quote to my grave, im gonna glaze this until the end of my days so good 10/10 cant get any better please please get your nose on this,anybody whos hating is stupid take my words on that. The fact that theres only 1 bad review says a lot. i want this to stay underground but at the same time i want this to be famous becuase it deserves it.

i hope i can smell the dry down better, it opens up less "pungently" than the EDP, surprisingly, so its more soothing, calming, and fresh. To me it smells like a crisp sunny day in a memory, if that makes sense, you know when you say "The air seemed to smell different as a child", i think this would've been it, or very close, luxuriously fresh, lasts a lot even in my skin, which somewhy evaporates even the stronger frangrances "quick", but it is expensive, 50 ml and 470 euros... oh well, its worth it, get it if you can.

This is more robust than the transparent and airier now discontinued EDP version. Nearly identical scent DNA but this just somehow feels more refined and luxurious. Obviously they layer really well together. If you got the cash this is the version to buy. A bit redundant if you already own the EDP. An easy 9/10.

I too love this one better that the original EDP. Much better constructed, balanced and fits well in the collection it is in now. Still not aquatic, of course, more like a garden by the seaside kind of imagery. Great performance too!
