‘Many of the resins that have been used in perfumery for thousands of years come from the Middle East. I took these materials and blended them with exotic oud notes to create a fragrance that is both soft and sensual.’ Roja Dove
Ambergris and oud – what a wonderful duo Dove has created here! Smoky, spicy oud with woody undertones meets the warmth of precious ambergris. Illuminated by citrus notes, kissed by saffron and accented by sweet, spicy cinnamon. Patchouli adds earthy depth, while iris provides a delicate powdery note, civet adds animalic undertones and flowers conjure up creamy freshness.
Roja Dove's Aoud collection is exquisite, unique and masterfully composed – a fitting tribute to this precious essence.
Aoud Collection
‘With my oud creations, I have captured the mysterious, exotic character of the Middle East. They are powerful, exotic and complex fragrances with unparalleled luxury – the secret pleasures that everyone desires.’ Roja Dove
Perfume & Packaging – The Quintessence of Luxury
To emphasise the luxury and value of its products, Dove attaches great importance to quality and sophistication in the packaging of its precious Roja perfumes. Dove personally selects each element of the packaging, combining infinite simplicity with infinite luxury to create exactly what luxury should be: true craftsmanship.
Considerable skill is required to produce and hand-finish the Roja Parfums bottles: each bottle is as unique as the fragrance it contains. It is manufactured in France and the pure gold decoration is applied by hand in England in a lengthy process. To create the cap – the leitmotif of the Roja Parfums brand – gold particles are forged into metal to create a highly reflective surface onto which the brand name is printed. The cap is completed with fourteen Swarovski crystals, which are set by hand in a five-day process. The front of each bottle is adorned with gold lettering, which is manufactured in England and applied by hand. Each of these exquisite bottles is nestled in an equally exquisite presentation box, which is handmade in England by award-winning craftsmen using the highest quality papers, some of which are used exclusively for Roja Parfums.
The contrast between the precious matte texture of the paper and the gold embossing is a perfect prelude to the purple-coloured, hand-folded silk that lines the interior. ‘Everything about my brand has to be special, something you can't find anywhere else. That's what luxury is all about.’ Roja Dove
