‘A friend who works as an editor-in-chief came to the following conclusion: “I would immediately grab any man who smells like this! ” I was thrilled because now I knew that I had created the effect I wanted – and that it undoubtedly worked.’ Roja Dove
Scandal is a statement. The fragrance ensures that its wearer will be talked about – that's Dove's promise. And it delivers on its promise: created from a colourful potpourri of the most precious ingredients, Scandal ennobles its wearer and their appearance.
Bright citrus fruits in the top notes make them shine, accompanied by herbal accents: tart basil, fresh mint and lavender paint a deep purple and dark green picture that forms the overture to the opulent heart. Elegant flowers come together there: creamy jasmine, earthy, powdery violet that ensures skin proximity, fruity, fresh May rose and delicate, clean lily of the valley. Rhubarb breathes melancholic tartness, while cardamom, clove and nutmeg add sensual, sharp spice. Cedar, cashmere and sandalwood warm the heart, supported by ambergris and labdanum, which also create a gentle smokiness. Silky moss and earthy patchouli round off Scandal perfectly.
Scandal pour Homme – noble, masculine and distinctive. What more could a man want?
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 stand for: 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
