A wide olfactory family, as graphic as inspired..<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Behind this project of OHTOP<\/em> stands Romeo Oh, a Korean designer established in Paris since the early 1990s. Romeo embodies the fusion of two cultures in the world of fashion and perfume. <\/strong>Born in a peaceful Korean province far from Seoul, he grew up surrounded by the serenity of the countryside and the scent of rice fields. These elements nourished his imagination and creative sensitivity, displaying his cultural heritage. Attracted by the cultural excitement of Paris, Romeo settled there and founded the SHOWROOM ROMEO<\/em> in the illustrious Marais<\/em> quarter. This space is dedicated to the discovery and promotion of upcoming young fashion talents. Moreover, rich of a large and luminous showroom, the structure hosted during Paris Fashion Week Fall 2025<\/em>, the first edition of the Korea Perfume Paris<\/em> event, with the goal to highlight Korean niche perfume brands. <\/strong>By AL & ST<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Tainted with a dual<\/strong> culture, Romeo Oh<\/strong> would surprise you with his several projects<\/strong>..<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
After more than twenty years<\/strong> of highlighting emerging creators, Romeo<\/strong> decided to devote himself to his own project by launching OHTOP<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, a perfumery<\/strong> brand which reflects as much as possible his personal experience<\/strong> and his artistic<\/strong> vision (photo credits: OHTOP <\/em>& AL).  <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
In 2021<\/strong>, he began with a range of unisex cosmetics<\/strong> before stepping into perfumery<\/strong> in 2023<\/strong>, creating a collection of fragrances<\/strong>, designed as an olfactory<\/strong> wardrobe. His philosophy<\/strong> explores the connections between fashion<\/strong> and beauty<\/strong>, focusing on personal expression<\/strong> and the celebration of style<\/strong>.<\/div>\n

For your information, those OHTOP<\/strong><\/em> perfumes, crafted according to the traditions<\/strong> of French perfumery<\/strong>, incorporate elements of Korean<\/strong> culture<\/strong>, reflecting Romeo Oh<\/strong>‘s heritage and personal experiences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

For instance, each fragrance<\/strong> results from collaborations with various renowned perfumers<\/strong>, such as Alexis Dadier<\/strong>, Am\u00e9lie Bourgeois<\/strong>, Anne-Sophie Behaghel<\/strong>, and of course Romeo<\/strong> himself, under the direction of the Carbonnel<\/strong> teams. Therefore, OHTOP<\/strong><\/em> continues to explore the links between fashion<\/strong> and beauty<\/strong>, while committing to a positive impact<\/strong> on our climate <\/strong>and fragile nature<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In another hand, OHTOP<\/strong><\/em> is also distinguished by its commitment to sustainability<\/strong> and the preservation of biodiversity<\/strong>. Thus, the brand<\/strong> uses traceable<\/strong>, non-toxic<\/strong> and for sure natural<\/strong> ingredients, and adopts ethical<\/strong> and transparent<\/strong> production practices. Their 15ml bottles<\/strong> are refillable<\/strong> and all are fully recyclable<\/strong>, reducing the random carbon footprint<\/strong>. Their packaging<\/strong> materials are chosen for their low environmental<\/strong> impact, including fully recyclable<\/strong> paper and biodegradable<\/strong> cellophane. This collection of unisex perfumes<\/strong> is designed as an olfactory<\/strong> wardrobe, inviting everyone to assert themselves with style<\/strong> and freedom<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This year, OHTOP<\/strong><\/em> is enriching its collection with three new fragrances<\/strong>, each carrying a distinct story<\/strong> and inspiration<\/strong>. Among this trio<\/strong><\/em> launching, you could count on Air Oud<\/strong><\/em>, which is a perfume<\/strong>, imagined by the perfumer Karine Vinchon<\/strong>, inspired by the image of a Buddhist<\/strong> temple<\/strong>, covered in moss<\/strong>. Here, it combines the delicate freshness of oud wood<\/strong>, adorned with notes of orange blossom<\/strong> and sandalwood<\/strong>, creating a duality between a soft<\/strong> start and a more animal base<\/strong>. Once wearing it, be ready to feel various emotions of comfort<\/strong>, tranquility<\/strong> and fresh air<\/strong>, as well thanks to its ingredients<\/strong> of rice<\/strong> and incense<\/strong>. Price: 230 euros<\/strong> for a 100ml<\/strong> bottle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Then, be ready for some chance<\/strong><\/em> inspiration. Therefore, deeply inspired by the famous number 8<\/strong><\/em>, symbol of luck<\/strong> and metamorphosis<\/strong><\/em> in Asia<\/strong>, the Okt\u00f3<\/strong><\/em> fragrance is a celebration of the positive energy<\/strong>, somehow emanating from this number 8<\/strong><\/em>, symbolizing chance<\/strong> and abundance<\/strong>. Its simple and luminous formula<\/strong>, conceived by perfumer Julien Rasquinet<\/strong>, contains eight<\/strong> seeds, evoking rebirth<\/strong> and hope<\/strong>. This perfume<\/strong> captures the scented<\/strong> raw and noble<\/strong> wakes of humus<\/strong><\/em>, through notes of ambrette<\/em> seed<\/strong>, along pear<\/strong>, and iris<\/strong>. Price: 200 euros<\/strong> for a 100ml<\/strong> bottle.<\/p>\n

The last of the three new fragrances<\/strong> is named Half Moon<\/strong><\/em>, inspired by the melody of a Korean<\/strong> nursery rhyme<\/strong>, better known as Bandal<\/strong><\/em> (meaning “half moon”<\/strong><\/em>). This perfume<\/strong> evokes the sweetness of youth<\/strong>, with a composition dominated by cedar<\/strong>, floral notes of rose<\/strong>, jasmine<\/strong>, heliotrope<\/strong><\/em> and a breath of mountainous oxygen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Created by Luca Maffei<\/strong>, this powerful fragrance<\/strong> expresses several emotions of fragility<\/strong> and melancholy<\/strong>, supplied by heliotrope<\/strong><\/em> but also an ambroxan<\/strong><\/em> accord. Price: 200 euros<\/strong> for a 100ml<\/strong> bottle.<\/div>\n
