✨ Vibe

The opening is bright, sparkling and incredibly refreshing, with lemon, bergamot, grapefruit and lime creating a juicy citrus explosion. Lavender and thyme add an aromatic green touch, giving the fragrance a sophisticated freshness rather than making it smell like a simple citrus cologne.

As it develops, apple and blackcurrant bring a subtle fruity sweetness, while the floral notes add smoothness and elegance. The fragrance gradually becomes more green, woody and masculine, with vetiver, cedarwood and juniper creating a clean, refined backbone.

The dry-down has a beautiful balance of woody, musky, slightly earthy and subtly warm facets. Overall, the impression is fresh, classy, clean, confident and luxurious—the kind of fragrance that feels equally appropriate with a crisp shirt at the office or dressed up for an evening out. Roja describes Elysium as a fresh woody-citrus fragrance with a balance of brightness, sophistication and masculine depth.
