Roja Parfums L'Oscar Pour Homme is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Roja Dove. L'Oscar Pour Homme opens with Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Hawthorn, Carnation, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Celery Seeds, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Roja Parfums's L'Oscar Pour Homme carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Seriously, lads, this isn't for everyone. It's a proper niche scent, for those who appreciate old-school greenness and aren't afraid of smelling a bit like an eccentric wizard or someone's well-heeled grandpa. Don't expect a crowd-pleaser; this is a conversation starter.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

This is a scent for refined settings, echoing old money rather than casual outings. While not overwhelming, its unique character might be distracting in a typical office, but it certainly shines in formal or date scenarios where making a statement is desired.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Eugenol from Nutmeg
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

L'Oscar kicks off with a unique, bracing hit of grapefruit, not quite rind, not quite pulp, but remarkably clean. The heart unfolds into a complex, almost medicinal woody-aromatic blend, dominated by earthy labdanum and green galbanum, with a subtle floral hint of carnation and hawthorn. The dry down settles into a sophisticated, mossy base, with nuances of sandalwood, cedar, and an intriguing whisper of celery seeds and nutmeg that adds a clean, warm spiciness.
