Loved every minute of this video, loved the stories behind the scents, some people here haven't tried a roja, say what you want but they do use ridiculously high quality ingredients, I have Oceania and Amber aoud and the quality is class!!
10 out 10 video. Fragrance rep seemed gracious and knowledgeable. I loved to hear him embraced the luxury price point and also acknowledged big companies are listening to the fragcom.
At sentexplore, Roja himself said that more than 50% of his clients are under the age of 35. But of that 50+% 18% are under the age of 25. Kids working and not paying rent have a lot of expendable money.
Hey Omar, I really love these kinds of videos and I appreciate how respectful you are to the perfumers/managers! I just have one small criticism; it would really help more if you interrupted less, I appreciate your apologies when you do but I wanna hear everything about the brands that you and the employees have to say.
It’s crazy how he said at Roja they make high quality ingredients and long lasting fragrances I have yet to find a Roja fragrance that last long all subpar performance and yes has good quality ingredients but that’s about it, it cannot be compared to xerjoff Nishane or even Amouage where most things you buy from them have great quality and amazing performance
I heard you, Bowtie, the fragrance guy, and some other reviewers speak about the depth put into Roja Dove Burlington 1819. I purchased the fragrance so blindly. It's fantastic. I gave a sample to one of my friends, and he just fell head over heals. We both are truck drivers. He said he sprayed one spray on his wrist, went inside to get his paperwork, and the customer service girl lost mind and asked him in an WOW way( what are you wearing? She said "your wife allows you to walk out of the house smelling this good". Burlington 1819 is an awesome fragrance. Manhattan sounds very good. All fragrances spoken about in this video, i need to just purchase. Thanks for the video.
This was a wonderful informative video Omar! My first Niche fragrance was Roja Elysium. Its been wonderful, and a great alternative to Creed Aventus. Great Content as always!
I'm gonna have to disagree with the Roja rep here, owning all 3 Elysium varieties I can confidently attest that the parfum version really tones down the tartness. Its not a completely different scent but it is immediately noticeable.
I wish you would have asked him why they released Apex Perfume only six months after the original was released. Seemed kinda redundant or almost took away all the thunder from the original release. Thats on me thouh I didnt remember when you did the IG Q&A post 🤦🏾♂️
I don’t really care about Roja because the affordable ones like Enigma don’t last long. I have it and rarely use it. More power to the middle eastern clones. Some of the middle Eastern fragrances are also well done.
Ha Ha, Majority of people cant tell the difference of expensive niche brands and good clones. Also some clones last much longer than the original. Don't waste your money.
Are you talking about people wearing the cologne or people around you smelling the cologne? I agree you shouldn't waste your money if you can't tell the difference. But some people can tell the difference.
😂 How do you feel... Business cares so much about feelings you can't believe it. Same way they cry their eyes out when charging hundreds of Euros for an aromatic alcohol solution. Respect to the Roja guy for not overreacting to that question. My journey with middle eastern houses started after getting extremely annoyed for paying more than 100 EUR for an Armani fragrance about 2 years ago. It's a journey that still continues...
Thank you to Roja Parfums for having us over! What brand do you want us to visit next? 🙂
Nishane or MFK
Bond
Boadicea the victorious!
Penhaligon
MFK
YOURE KILLING IT OMAR. HOT DAMN, THIS IS AWESOME.
I need to save up for an Isola Blue... because I have my own private yacht too... as my desktop background.
Haha, it counts. 😎
How big is your desk top !!!!
Get basso, it’s better
@@rushabhk8 You are very right !

Gotts admit i know so little about Roja. I've been thinking of Apex for a while.
Top class vid, pure School of Scents masterclass
10 out 10 video. Fragrance rep seemed gracious and knowledgeable. I loved to hear him embraced the luxury price point and also acknowledged big companies are listening to the fragcom.
Great interview omar ! Keep up the new refreshing content.

I am really enjoying your content. I'd love to see an in-depth MFK interview.
Impressive video. As others said, every second of it was enjoyable, Omar. If you do this with every brand you can, it would be incredible 🎉🎉🎉
Hey Omar, I really love these kinds of videos and I appreciate how respectful you are to the perfumers/managers!

Love this video - thanks.
Next in my shopping list is Burlington 1819.
Surprised Enigma didn’t really come up - love that fragrance
Really nice video, i loved the stories about those perfumes !
Day 17 of asking Omar to oil up
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bro how day 17 and last one was 15 and your first comment is like week or little bit more lmao
@@omarbest8277 bro last vid was posted 9/14. Today is 9/16 . Two days passed since…
Is this Xerjoff Guy’s evil lost twin? 🤔
top class, these are the content we would like to see
Fantastic episode. Really opened the doors on a brand I did not well understand. So much more to explore.
Nice one, Omar.
I really want to visit the Crockett and jones boutique opposite the Roja's.
Fantastic video. And an interesting contrast with Frag Mentals ‘s interview with Roja, the man himself.
It’s crazy how he said at Roja they make high quality ingredients and long lasting fragrances I have yet to find a Roja fragrance that last long all subpar performance and yes has good quality ingredients but that’s about it, it cannot be compared to xerjoff Nishane or even Amouage where most things you buy from them have great quality and amazing performance
Great content. Didn't expect there is a story behind the bottle itself.
Great informative video love finding out stories of these fragrances

Great video, I thought you were about to be a dupe reviewer after your Armaf visit.
Finally, the UK has a legit perfume youtuber!
Love Isola Blu,elysium parfum,oceania,1819,and amber aoud is so good 👍
This was a wonderful informative video Omar! My first Niche fragrance was Roja Elysium. Its been wonderful, and a great alternative to Creed Aventus. Great Content as always!
Great video, loving the new content
Look at you!! So inspirational, you helped me a lot throughout my journey learning about fragrances. (I blind bought a lot😂)
Compared to your visit at Ormonde Jayne, this feels more like a sales talk by Jack if anything. I appreciate your honest opinion as always, Omar.
That's because he interviewed the Head of Brand, and not the creator of the brand. as he mentioned at the beginning.
I have Burlington 1819 I love it and also Apex EDP.I'm also considering purchasing Oceania as I think it epitomises a luxury fresh fragrance
Great work Omar.
I'm gonna have to disagree with the Roja rep here, owning all 3 Elysium varieties I can confidently attest that the parfum version really tones down the tartness. Its not a completely different scent but it is immediately noticeable.
@School of Scent 🌟Happy Holidays to you and yours! 🌟🎄🎅🏻🧑🏻🎄🌲🕎❄️☃️🌲🪔✝️🎉🎂☯️🎊🎈🔯🎁🌲⛩️🍷☯️🥂🍾🍻🕉️🌲 from NYC 🍎🇺🇸
Awesome deep dive!
1819 is Grapefruit with a lot of Cumin and i find it as a citrus that lasts and smells sophisticated with an edge
Really cool video Omar ❤
love this kind of videos
Great video 💯
Burlington 1819 is a masterpiece. Wish it lasted longer than 4-5 hrs though 😅
Also, loving these series with top brands 👍
Damn that's a nice suit, Omar
What would you say is the best office fragrance? Casual like Polo and Slacks daily or Jeans on Fridays. No Suit
From Roja? Elysium Parfum or Isola Blu 🙂
@@SchoolOfScent Year around?
You should do more boutiques? Maybe pdm/initio next?
Good video
Right at this point of the video, you can hear a goat giving birth in the background 😂 4:42
Hey any clones for these perfumes for men?
I wish you would have asked him why they released Apex Perfume only six months after the original was released. Seemed kinda redundant or almost took away all the thunder from the original release.
Thats on me thouh I didnt remember when you did the IG Q&A post 🤦🏾♂️
So fancy to see Omar elevating the quality of content and the channel overall. Almost on the other level, well done 💪
nice guy, seems really knowledgeable, but i can't help but hear is little britain marjorie doors talking about Roja 😮
I don’t really care about Roja because the affordable ones like Enigma don’t last long. I have it and rarely use it. More power to the middle eastern clones. Some of the middle Eastern fragrances are also well done.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
i've just finally after considering for a long time, bought elysium cologne , then damn i see the thumbnail...
Nah you’re good
@SchoolOfScent Oy omar! Thanks for the reply! Just watched through the whole video! Great job! Thanks for your effort!
Thanks Omar, had to buy the isola blu now….
I can still hear my wallet crying.
I own about 350 bottles and Roja is definitely one of my favorite houses. If you have the money it’s worth the purchase.
*Is he your twin white brother ... with a clean shave ???*
21:29 What longevity? 😂
I have multiple roja products, unfortunately they are massively overhyped and too pricey for what they are
Ha Ha, Majority of people cant tell the difference of expensive niche brands and good clones. Also some clones last much longer than the original. Don't waste your money.
Are you talking about people wearing the cologne or people around you smelling the cologne? I agree you shouldn't waste your money if you can't tell the difference. But some people can tell the difference.
But you can, if you wear it for yourself in the first place
Omar ,You are from Egypt, right ?
i mean your real or main nationality
I remeber that he is from wakanda
yes he is
Day 17 to ask him to oil up? Sounds like you love baby oil 😂
Time to oil up guys and Omar
Omar, is that your cousin ?
What a cute fruity guy 😄
The constant mispronunciation of Roja…it’s RAH-JA not ROH-JA🤦🏽♂️😂
Day 14 of asking omar to make a buying guide for al haramain amber oud
Roja is biggest dupe house after Lattafa 😂
Day 11 of asking Omar for a Comme des garcons buying guide
*APEXXXXX*

over priced tbh , didnt he learn from guerlain? shouldve priced them accordingly
it would be nice if you do this with xerjoff in turin!
Hey, I was waiting to hear about the mid summer dream 😑😑😑
Perfumes that u smell in heaven of god is much more extraordinary georges
