Borikén by RDZ Parfums 10/22/26

On October 17th I went to the first fragrance expo in the Caribbean celebrated in Puerto Rico & also my first time at an event like this with my wife. Although it was more Middle Eastern event 🤷🏻‍♂️ there where Puerto Rican perfurmers and brands and most importantly I had a great time and loved the experience.

RDZ Parfums is a brand from a Puerto Rican perfumer called Alex Rodríguez, I didn’t knew but his brand was launched in 2020. I met him, he signed the fragrance and I asked him what inspired him to create the Limited Edition Borkién fragrance that where only 500 made. He told me that what inspired him was the Puerto Rico a very long time ago, when there wasn’t any buildings or roads, when there was “Jibaritos”, “el campo”… and before Puerto Rico even was named Puerto Rico, it was named Borikén or also Borinquen before the Spanish people invaded in 1493.

Puerto Rico is a tropical island, that’s why the composition of the fragrance is fruity, citrus, floral, solar, woody & amber, This is a very special fragrance to me and the first time I wore it was on my Father’s birthday. I also liked Leyenda 21, Philly Blunt and much more of his collection.
