The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Roja Dove launched Aoud Extraordinaire in 2024 as a bold statement in the world of Oriental Woody fragrances. The composition begins with an explosion of tropical and fruity notes—pineapple, mango, pear, and peach—that create a vibrant contrast against its woody heart. As these top notes settle, the fragrance reveals layers of jasmine, bergamot, orange blossom, and geranium, adding depth and warmth to the mix. The base notes of cashmeran, musk, vanilla, leather, amber, agarwood, and vetiver anchor the scent in a rich blend of warmth and complexity.

How to wear it

This fragrance opens up quickly, so one generous spritz is enough to capture its full complexity. The fruity top notes are ephemeral, but the base notes linger for hours, making it ideal for an evening out or a confident daytime statement.
