I can't believe I am the only one who really hates this scent. It's entirely a catastrophe. Have that old smell of anti-moth sachets blended with raid anti-mosquito tablets. I love Elysium so much, but this is just... awful.
XGR04@ I’m not saying they are the same but for me they are close I think maybe because they sharing some of the same notes but they gave me the same vibes of course without the animalistic notes in Fetish. Also I mentioned that in total I've never smeld something like Fetish before.
Fetish sounds tempting, all I get is a Jazz club, full of smoky atmosphere, with that old wooden chairs and a lot of whiskey. This is a multifaceted version of A Voice Of Reason by Lush.
IT. Si tratta di una recensione unica per tutti i 7 profumi da uomo di Dove Roja, che ho ricevuto da una boutique di Roja in Inghilterra in qualità dei campioni di 2ml di puro profumo. Beh, cosa posso dire... non mi dispiace di aver sprecato €162 per soddisfare la mia curiosità. Quindi, in ordine: 1. Prima di tutto, il più famoso e pubblicizzato profumo di Roja - Diaghilev non assomiglia comunque, a Mitsouko, o a una miscela degli altri profumi di Guerlain, come spesso può essere trovato nei vari recensioni, però, nelle sue note iniziali è leggermente ricorda l'apertura di Vol de Nuit (sotto una forma del profumo puro), solo che Diaghilev, secondo me, sia più debole e con qualche strana amarezza che per fortuna scompare dopo circa un'ora. Anche se in generale non è male, ma non vorrei indossarlo, come non vorrei indossare gli altri 5 di 7 profumi da uomo di Roja che io abbia ricevuto, l'eccezione sarebbe Roja Scandalo pour homme. 2. Nüwa, come si aspettava dalla lista degli ingredienti, puzza francamente di cumino ed è proprio insopportabile. E 'una sorta di soffocante fetore di uomini sudati in una concentrata miscela dell'odore di mandorle. 3. Fetish e Reckless sono buoni comunque, ma poi, come spesso succede coi profumi di Roja, Fetish, secondo me, assomiglia come un gemello a Interlude Man di Amouage, mentre Interlude non costa € 500, ma molto meno. Insomma, Fetish e Reckless sono buoni profumi, ma, come dirlo, sono un puro esempio di "troppo". Sono un sacco di cose di troppo. Per questo, credo, che i ricchi consumatori russi li adorano. 4. Di Enigma e Danger non vorrei nemmeno parlare - sono 2 noiose fragranze legnose. In una parola può descrivere l'arte dei profumi di Roja come le opere nel genere Rococò: sono molto intensi, tutto sempre viene creato in stretta conformità con le leggi della profumeria di lusso, ogni dettaglio è preso in considerazione, ma... è troppo, non è nel posto giusto e in generale sono i soldi sprecati solo per il nome di Roja. Comunque, se un giorno, nonostante questa mia recensione, qualcuno deciderebbe di regalarmi qualche profumo di Dove Roja, allora certamente preferirei Roja Scandal. Quest'ultimo almeno, il più originale e, al tempo stesso, più stabile profumo di tutta la linea maschile. Diaghilev, per esempio, nella sua nuova configurazione si evapora abbastanza presto. Mentre stavo scrivendo questa recensione, i 7 profumi messi in prova sono arrivati alla base della loro piramide olfattiva e ho deciso di aggiungere alla conclusione che tutti loro, tranne Scandal hanno completato la loro trasformazione ad un di tutto normale nota legnosa, come succederebbe anche nel caso della maggior parte degli fragranze maschili ad un prezzo di € 50 per una bottiglia da 100 ml. Perciò, spero che il tempo dedicato a leggere questa mia recensione vi sia passato in modo molto più utile del mio, sprecato per conoscere i lavori di Dove Roja.
So first off let me say i love roja dove. I find his fragrences to be a throw back to the times when perfume was full on & no holds barred. I even have his book the essence of perfume and read it from cover to cover. I own many other rojas including enigma, vetiver, Diaghilev, danger, oligarch & of course todays topic fetish pour homme parfum. As you can see i am a fan. Now with that context out of the way, let me tell you as soon as i sprayed Fetish it reminded me of something. It took me a few days of wearings to put my finger on it. When it hit me, it was like a gear slipping into place. Everyone knows puredistance m & Belami and in case you didnt know roja dove was the perfumier for purediatance m before he founded roja parfums & of course bel ami is a classic and one of the grestest leather cyphres ever created in my opinion along with Derby from guerlain. Now i know this is a lot of back story but to me how can you understand a fragrence without understanding the history? Most people know but some dont that Roja got his start with Guerlain and became the highest ranking member that was not a guerlain by birth right ever up until LVMH took them over. He has also been around the block a long time before starting Roja parfums and had his own consulting business where he would work and consult and give speeches with other fragrence houses. He is also a fan of the past as his signature scent for 30 + years was mitsouko which was created in 1919 and one of the first cyphre fragrences and one of the greatest of all time IMO. Now my last bit of information is he is English and i think he borrowed the top and some of the mid from another English house but thats just my prognostication. The other english house is none other than clive christian and the fragrence is x for men and it was created in 2001, yes that was 20 years ago. The opening and somewhat the mid of Fetish is very similar to X for men with some of the bergamont & vanilla taken from shalimar (another Guerlain) thrown into the pot along with lime. Now X uses a rhubarb note and starts off very cinnamony almost big red like. Fetish doesnt go to the big red territory it uses the citrus and cinnamon to give this coca cola vibe which Guerlain (shocker) is famous for in Heritage and then again later on in L'instant de guerlain. But the spine of X you could say can be smelled in fetish. After about an hour or so fetish transitions to a spicy leather smokey mossy cyphre with an anamalic touch of castoreum and ambergris (roja uses the real thing). Roja is the master of hiding that dirty anamlic note, you smell it but it is almost sub conciously smelling. I saw an interview with Mr. Dove once where someone asked him why do perfumiers put a fecal note in fragrences? Please dont take offense by this but he said that the genitals are next to the anus. If you think of one you think of the other. It sub consciously makes people think of sex and if you think about it, outside of just surviving what is more important than the continuation of the species ie: lets get it on baby because we are just mamals after all. Roja is the master of hiding these dirty notes in my opinion. This phase after about an hour is where the leather from puerdistance m and bel ami comes in and it is a spicy leather. As a frag head, comparing vintage bel ami to fetish is a joy i dont think i will ever tire of. Now that i smell X by clive christian it is a comparison that wont leave my head even though its only the opening and part of the mid that really reminds me of X and really only half the opening as the other half was borrowed from shalimar which i actually wear so i am very familiar with shalimar, its the crown jewel of the guerlain house imo. This is where rojas creations get tricky. See danger is almost an improved copy of Guerlains Heritage you could say (i say how can you improve a master piece like heritage?). And Diaghilev is Rojas improvment of mitsouko and Fetish is his improved copy of X/Bel Ami/puredistance m if you will. Is it worth spending 500 bucks on a copy of fragrences past? Where roja clearly borrows from frags made years and decades ago? Well if you are an afficianado like me YES! Because the materials are top notch and this sort of perfumery just isnt made anymore today. Plus trying to dissect his improvements and finding the hidden gems like can you smell the violet or orris or is there a rhubarb note in fetish afterall etc etc is all the fun for me. BUT for the average joe they wont see the connections they wont appreciate the small nuiances and differences between heriage and danger lets say so it wont make much a difference to them. Sure they will get a quality fragrence but without understanding the history they would be better off just buying bel ami instead of fetish or heritage instead of danger for example. Thats where the rub with roja lies to me and that is why he is such a polarizing figure. I probably wont wear this again until next year when it gets cold as i wont wear this in the summer so a 500 dollar frag is going to sit and collect dust for a year. So if you want something to bring out a few times a year or anytime in fall and winter and feel special almost enchanting when you wear it go for it. If you like leather scents hunt down vintage bel ami or the new bel ami vetiver (very underrated). All that being said, if you are at the point in your fragrence journey where you have been there done that and want rojas take on the past in this case a vintage leather cyphre or if you are just a roja collector thats where you should spend the money to check this one out. The quality is top notch you will get compliments and i can bet my bottom dollar no one you run into will be wearing this. But without knowing the history of fragrences you will never understand a true roja dove.Thanks for reading my 2 cents on the topic. -Ramsey
