Roja Parfums Oceania Parfum
Description
Oceania Parfum is the reformulated, higher-strength sibling of Roja Dove's 2019 Oceania EDP, a fresh citrus-aromatic built on juniper, lavender and grapefruit over a jasmine heart and mossy sandalwood base. Reviewers who've compared both versions consistently favor the Parfum for a smoother, more balanced blend without the EDP's faint synthetic "clean" note in the first half hour.
How It Differs From Oceania EDP
- Oceania Parfum: the refined version: smoother blending, meaningfully stronger longevity and projection.
- Oceania EDP: the original, brighter and more affordable, with a faint synthetic note some detect in the opening.
Scent Character
- Fresh: 32%
- White Floral: 28%
- Woody: 26%
- Sweet: 10%
Translation: fresh-floral-woody, same profile family as the EDP. The Parfum's advantage is in performance and polish, not a different accord balance. (A trace 5% "Oud" reading folds into the woody base; there's no literal agarwood in the disclosed notes.)
