  • I smelled it and loved it. It smells like incense but fresh, like citronella—kind of like burning palo santo in a room. It’s smoky yet fresh at the same time. The execution is very clean; it’s a concrete scent that doesn’t wander and stays etched in your memory.

  • A modern marvel in perfumery. Upon trying it, I thought, ‘My mind is blown!’ The geranium is unmistakable, surrounded by incense and held together by a sublime oud. I’d never heard such a blend, and everyone who’s tried it, men and women alike, has loved it. It’s a must-have in my collection. The trail and longevity are more than enough; two sprays last all day. It’s not a best-seller but almost, and what surprises me most is that it smells fresh. Priced around 300€ for 100ml, but compared to other pricey 50ml fragrances that don’t last, it’s not bad. Try it, it’s unique.

    A modern marvel in perfumery. Upon trying it, I thought, ‘My mind was blown!’ The geranium is unmistakable, surrounded by incense and anchored by a sublime oud. I’d never heard a blend like this, and everyone who’s tried it, men and women alike, has loved it. It’s a must-have in my collection. The trail and longevity are more than enough; two sprays last all day. It’s not a best-seller, but almost—what surprises me most is that it smells fresh. Priced around €300 for 100ml, but compared to other expensive 50ml fragrances that fade quickly, it’s a steal. Try it; it’s one of a kind.

  • Oh my god, what a beast! Save time and just buy it; it’s my best purchase. The scent is indescribable, masculine, oriental, and modern, different from all my perfumes, even expensive niche ones. It lasts over 24 hours on the skin and up to 2 months on an unwashed jacket! 10/10. Hopefully, I can buy another from the collection someday.

  • Homeostasis

    Words can’t describe it; it goes straight to the heart. Three ingredients for a masterpiece. Worth every euro and an instant buy.

  • At first, it smells like a very fine incense with a top-tier geranium, perhaps the most natural one I’ve tried. It’s fresh and aromatic, without any annoying oud (or it’s very subtle in the background). The blend is good but simple, no magic tricks like Narciso. It’s pleasant but not love-at-first-scent, and for this price, I think there are better options, like Chanel’s private line. It smells like a musky floral, discreet and perfect for the office, though it lacks personality for other occasions. It’s not more memorable than a Prada at work. Moderate projection, short longevity: after 4 hours, only a soft incense and a bit of geranium remain. Scent: 7.7, Projection: 7.2, Longevity: 6, Uniqueness: 7.

  • Unique perfume, a rare case where smelling it feels like discovering something new. Simple composition but so well-balanced with luxury ingredients that it feels like the perfume of an opulent Arab sheikh. You notice the geranium and a huge quality incense that gives it a green touch. The oud is supportive; it doesn’t make it smell animalic or dirty. Ideal for dressing elegantly and drawing attention. Warning: the first edition projected all the time (watch out for excess), but the 2022 reedition is softer and barely reaches 8 hours. Maybe they removed fixatives. With the current price and exclusivity, Bulgari should have been more careful with this; it’s not a small expense to leave us at the mercy of reformulations.

  • Unusual profile and proposition, quality that shows. Usually the label doesn’t matter, but here it does. It opens fresh, concentrated, and bright, with a resinous start that evolves into something aromatic and musky, clean like natural soap. It’s distinctive, denotes luxury and class. Very versatile, almost impossible not to like; I see it as more masculine and suitable for almost all seasons, except in heat where it can be overpowering. Lasts a long time, over 6 hours, with average projection. Everything is perfect except the price: a complete scent that fails on cost; I wouldn’t pay for it.

  • I tried everything and decanted until I found this niche I wanted to own. Too bad they don’t make it anymore, what a shame.

  • Kobraa is a wonder, very special and hard to compare. It’s exquisite, lasts all day, and everyone else loves it. It’s a perfect equation between greenery and incense. Imagine meditating in a Buddhist monastery garden at dawn, with aromatic herbs, dewy lemon trees, and a high-quality incense burner. Cut a ripe lemon leaf and smell the whole thing. Simple and incredibly rich. It evokes wisdom, peace, and contemplation. I’ve worn it for over a year, and without exception, people say, ‘That scent… that perfume!’ They sigh, get thoughtful, and smile with peace. It’s not a sexy perfume but a solemn one, for reflection and pausing from stress. It’s exquisite. I recommend it for enjoying calm and projecting balance. It’s not for someone looking to boost their ego, but for someone contemplating their life in peace. As a side note, there’s a Fragrance World perfume called Vie Sol that tries to imitate it with a green bottle. It’s good and follows the same line, but there’s a huge gap. Kobraa is sublime; Vie Sol is just good. Kobraa is a Zen master; Vie Sol is just its apprentice.

  • Kobraa is a unique, unparalleled, and super special jewel. It has no equal, it’s exquisite, and you notice it at every moment. It’s the perfect blend of greenery and incense: imagine meditating at dawn in the garden of a millennial monastery, everything damp with dew, lemon trees, and a censer with delicious smoke. Cut a leaf from a mature lemon tree and smell the cut: simple, incredibly rich. It evokes wisdom, peace, and solemnity. I’ve been wearing it for over a year, and people always sigh, slow down, and stay thoughtful with a peaceful smile. It’s not meant to be sexy, but for reflection and escaping stress. It’s for people who are already beyond good and evil. Watch out for Vie Sol from Fragrance World: it tries to imitate it with a green bottle, follows the line, but there’s a huge gap. Kobraa is sublime, the Zen master; Vie Sol is just good, its apprentice.

  • Looks like I’m going to be the first negative review… The opening was nice, well-incensed and fresh. As it dried, a spicy, incisive geranium came to the forefront that I simply couldn’t tolerate. Undeniable quality, but that geranium so prominent won me over. It’s one of the few perfumes that made me go to the bathroom to wash my wrist with soap. Fragrantica and YouTube speak wonders of it, almost unanimously. Warning: this is definitely not for everyone.

  • ViceCity990

    Seems like I’m the first to complain… I loved the opening, very incense-like and fresh. But once it dried down, a spicy, strong geranium note kicked in that I couldn’t handle. The quality is top-notch, but that geranium won me over. It’s one of the few perfumes that made me rush to the bathroom to wash my wrist with soap. Everyone praises it on Fragrantica or YouTube, but beware: this isn’t for everyone.

    Incredible fragrance, a different kind of incense. Everything revolves around the incense and the depth of the resins. It’s different because we associate the smoky, heavy character of incense with something cloying; here there’s a perfect combination of geranium that elevates the fragrance, with subtle green and amber tones, plus the depth of Bvlgari’s oud, appreciable in fragrances from the same line like Orom. Perfect balance between green, smoky, ambered, resinous, and floral. Maybe what it resembles most in designer commercial scents is Loewe 7 Elixir; I’m not saying they’re the same, but it gives you an idea of where Kobraa is heading.

  • Does it have aromatic quality? Yes, but it’s a scent that only a cardinal would wear or serve as an air freshener in a Catholic church. I can’t think of any other use. Ecclesiastical incense with sandalwood and a distant, powdery touch of geranium that doesn’t smell like green rose here. The ‘freshness’ others mention? I don’t smell it; quite the opposite.

  • I tested it on a decant from the Private Line of the Gem collection a little over a year ago, on a typical day where you try fifty decants and end up testing nothing thoroughly. This happened with Kobraa: I sniffed it for 15 minutes, and it turned dense; I attributed it to the geranium and frankincense not blending well for me, so I put it on my ‘I don’t like it’ list. This year, my tastes changed drastically; perfumes I hated now are my favorites, and others I didn’t even look at now call to me. I decided to buy a vial to change my mind. Here, there’s a strong opening of resinous, ambered frankincense, but fresh thanks to that geranium I used to hate and now tolerate. The oud is the base, soft, adding body. The incense dips and rises with the geranium, becoming clean and aromatic. What’s curious is that it’s a different incense, slightly fresh with a green sensation, smelling like the color of the cap. It stays this way: a clean, woody base with incense and geranium on top. It gives a strange three-dimensional feeling, as if it smells like multiple layers. Of the three from this Bvlgari Private Line I’ve tested, they are wonders: well-made, high quality, few notes but great compositions. -Scent: 9 -Longevity: 8 -Projection: 6.5 -Versatility: 7.5

    Overrated and basic. It starts with citronella and geranium, but everything revolves around C12MNA aldehydes (obviously fake incense). Then galaxolide appears, along with an overwhelming amount of ambroxan that makes it unbearable. The oud is just marketing; they didn’t even attempt a proper accord. It’s the worst synthetic interpretation of oud I’ve heard; even L’Homme by Elie Saab smells more like wood than Kobraa.

    Overrated and smells basic. It starts with citronella and geraniol, but everything revolves around aldehydes recreating incense (obviously not real). Then comes galaxolide and an overwhelming amount of ambroxan that makes it unbearable. The oud is just for marketing; they didn’t even get the accord right. It’s the worst synthetic interpretation of oud; even L’Homme by Elie Saab smells more like that wood than Kobraa.
