Olatua — an expressive fragrance by Notes de Bas de Paje
Olatua is a perfume extract from the French brand Notes de Bas de Paje, released in 2023.
This unisex fragrance has a distinctive character and a very powerful sillage. It was created for those who love rich compositions that make their presence known and are easy to remember.
The formula of Olatua is built on a contrast between fresh aquatic notes, a spicy spark and soft, skin-like sensuality.
Floral, musky and woody facets come together in the composition, so the fragrance cannot be reduced to one obvious theme: it is at once airy, creamy, spicy and slightly damp-green.
Character and development on the skin
At first, Olatua comes across as bright and energetic: a spicy black pepper accent meets the cool aquatic nuance of calone and coconut softness.
This combination creates the impression of fresh air, sun-warmed skin and an exotic creamy nuance without excessive sweetness.
As it develops, the composition becomes more floral and sensual.
White flowers and ylang-ylang add volume, a creamy texture and expressive exoticism, while the drydown gradually deepens with vetiver and musk.
Olatua is described as having a very strong sillage, allowing the fragrance to linger and create a noticeable scented cloud around the wearer.
It is an option for moments when you want to highlight your individuality rather than blend into the background.
Who is Olatua for, and when does it work best?
The fragrance is unisex: both women and men can choose it, guided primarily by their personal appreciation of spicy, white-floral and musky-woody accords.
Olatua feels especially natural in cool weather, in the evening, at meetings and events, and in situations that call for an expressive fragrance profile.
Because of the extract’s high intensity, it is best to adjust the dosage gradually.
Exact recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing are not provided, so it is sensible to start with a minimal application and assess the development after a few minutes; on fabric, the fragrance may last longer and smell denser.
The perfumer and the fragrance’s place in the brand’s line
The composition was created by Elia Chiche.
In Olatua, her signature is expressed through a play of opposites: the cool freshness of calone blends with coconut and white flowers, while musk and vetiver lend the drydown depth and lasting texture.
The fragrance is not linked to a specific collection, as no separate collection information is available.
No other concentrations of Olatua are listed in the database either, so it is impossible to compare this release with Eau de Toilette or Eau de Parfum versions without additional official information.
What to compare Olatua with
In terms of its overall direction and impression, Olatua can be considered alongside Franck Boclet Ylang Ylang, The Body Shop White Musk and La Prairie Life Threads Silver.
At the same time, Olatua stands out for its especially powerful sillage and more contrasting combination of aquatic freshness, coconut, white flowers and vetiver.
