Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Isola Blu EDP
Divisive, expensive, and baffling. Isola Blu is either a luxurious citrus masterpiece, an elevated take on beloved classics, or an overpriced, short-lived cleaning product. Most agree it's great, but many find it derivative and not worth the hefty price tag.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Isle Serenade EDP
A budget take on Roja Dove's luxurious Isola Blu. Isle Serenade lands the bright citrus opening and herbal lavender-thyme lift over a green, mossy chypre base, but where Roja's version is impeccably balanced and refined, this dupe renders the complexity flatter and the high-end polish thinner.

Season and Occasion Fit

Isola Blu

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal Sport

Its sophisticated, fresh-woody profile makes it suitable for various settings. While some find its projection moderate, others report it's beast-mode, so mindful application for the office is key. It's too refined for active sport but shines in casual, date, and smart-casual formal wear.

Isle Serenade

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A bright citrus-chypre built for warm weather: bergamot, lime and lemon sparkle in spring and summer and feel thin in the cold.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal Sport

Fresh and refined enough for the office and daily wear, with the elegance to carry a date; its understated freshness suits casual settings too.
