Roja Parfums Isola Blu
A Mediterranean island: citrus, coconut, cut grass
Isola Blu is the Mediterranean island of Roja's Isola collection, imagined as a day on a private yacht followed by a villa dinner at sunset. The house calls it a sophisticated citrus perfume, bright and aromatic, with a coconut and fruit heart and a green, leathery base. It is a Parfum in a 50 ml bottle.

How it unfolds
-
Sun on the water
Lemon, bergamot and lime come first, and lavender and thyme bring a dry, herbal brightness that feels more like a sun-warmed hillside than a fruit bowl. The opening is clear and breezy, with the citrus kept sharp by the herbs, and it sets the holiday mood the house is aiming for.
-
Fruit, coconut and white flowers
Apple and blackcurrant add juicy, slightly tart fruit, coconut a smooth, creamy softness, and orange blossom, Jasmin de Grasse, lily and champaca a bright floral glow. The mix is rounded, sunlit and a little tropical, more relaxed than the opening, like the move from deck to dinner table.
-
Grass, tonka and leather
The base is long and green: cut grass, maté, galbanum, pink pepper and aniseed give a fresh, herbal sparkle, while patchouli, oakmoss, cedarwood and juniper berry add dry, mossy wood. Vanilla, tonka bean, amber and orris soften it, and birch, leather, ambergris and musk leave a faint smoky leather the house links to Italian craftsmanship.
Wearing it
When, who and why
Mostly a summer scent
Isola Blu is happiest in warm weather and daylight: holidays, terraces, long lunches. As a Parfum it is concentrated, so one or two sprays are enough. The citrus is bright, but the green, leathery base is dense enough that it also holds up in cooler weeks and early evenings.
Who it is for
Isola Blu is for anyone who likes citrus with depth: a scent that starts clean and aromatic but ends in grass, amber and leather instead of plain musk. It suits people who want something fresh but not simple, and who are curious about coconut used with restraint, as part of a bright floral heart rather than a sweet treat.
Why choose Roja Parfums Isola Blu
Isola Blu belongs to the Isola collection, one of the groups in which Roja organises its range. The house wrote it around a single scene, a villa dinner at sunset after a day at sea, and tags it fresh, vibrant, aromatic and idyllic. The bottle is a 50 ml Parfum.

Questions
Frequently asked
What concentration is Isola Blu?
Parfum, in a 50 ml bottle. It is a concentrated format, denser and closer to the skin than an Eau de Parfum, so a light hand with the spray is enough.
Is Isola Blu a sweet scent?
Not very. Apple, blackcurrant and coconut add fruit and softness, and vanilla and tonka bean sit in the base, but cut grass, aniseed, patchouli and oakmoss keep it fresh and dry rather than sugary.
Does Isola Blu suit both men and women?
Yes, it is a unisex scent: a clean citrus-herbal opening and a green, leathery base that fit anyone who likes fresh, aromatic perfumes.
When is the best time to wear it?
Daytime in spring and summer is the natural fit, but the base holds well enough for an early evening dinner too.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
