Great choice, Chris. I do not own any of these, but I’ve smelled Elysium. I’ve smelled Oceania too. They are gorgeous. If I didn’t just buy a new car (it was needed), I could actually afford to pick a few of these up. As for my house that suits all my needs, it’s tough, but I would have to pick Bvlgari. The “Man” line alone is perfect. You have your “Man in Black” for Autumn and Winter, Man Wood Essence for Spring, and Man Wood Neroli for Summer. Man Wood Neroli in particular is quickly becoming one of my faves. Be well Chris!

I love Roja Parfums, my favourites being Oligarch and Elysium. But Chris you jokingly said 'Sweetie Aoud' was your top pick like you were being sarcastic, but seriously have you properly given Sweetie Aoud a chance? IMO it is an amazing fragrance, the patisserie accord in itself crafted after a visit to a patisserie house, and blended so expertly with aoud. It is bold, imaginative, deep and warm and is a fragrance that goes on and on and on! It is my partner's favourite Roja.
