Brogi Not Usual — fragrance character
Brogi Not Usual is a unisex eau de parfum from the Dutch brand Brogi, released in 2025.
This expressive composition is for those who love rich oriental fragrances with a leathery character, floral nuances and a noticeable gourmand warmth.
The name Not Usual perfectly captures the mood of the release: this fragrance does not try to be discreet or universally neutral.
Its profile is built on a contrast between a juicy fruity spark, spicy saffron, smoky incense and deep woody-leathery nuances.
Olfactive profile and development
At the opening, Brogi Not Usual smells bright and spicy: raspberry adds juiciness and a subtly sweet-and-sour facet, while saffron immediately lends it a dry spiciness and noble intensity.
As it develops, the fruity accent softens, giving way to a floral heart of rose and magnolia.
Incense creates a translucent smoky aura around the flowers, making the fragrance feel less like a simple sweet composition and more like a multifaceted oriental perfume.
Amber, oud and a leather accord are especially noticeable in the base, while vanilla softens their density and adds a warm, almost velvety aftertaste.
Positioning and wearability
Brogi Not Usual is presented as a unisex fragrance, so its character is not tied to traditional masculine or feminine codes.
It will appeal to those who choose perfume according to their mood and appreciate expressive amber, balsamic, floral, fruity, gourmand, leathery, spicy and woody notes.
The fragrance has a very powerful sillage: it is clearly present in the surrounding space and can linger for a long time after application.
It therefore performs especially impressively outdoors, in the evening, in cool weather and in situations that call for a confident, memorable fragrance statement.
For the office, small spaces or warm weather, it is best to exercise caution and start with a minimal number of sprays.
Specific recommendations for applying Brogi Not Usual to skin and clothing are not provided in the available data, so it is best to assess its intensity gradually, taking your own sensitivity to the fragrance into account.
Its place in the Brogi style
Brogi is a Dutch perfume brand, and Not Usual showcases its interest in rich compositions with a distinctive silhouette.
The combination of a fruity opening, florals, incense, leather, oud and vanilla makes this fragrance a notable example of the oriental style and highlights the brand’s desire to work with contrasts.
