The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019 by Roja Dove, Creation-E Parfum Cologne is a sophisticated Oriental Spicy fragrance that marries warm spices with woody and vanilla notes. The composition opens with bright citrus from bergamot and neroli, followed by the aromatic blend of pepper, ginger, and cardamom. These fresh spicy elements create an initial burst of energy before settling into a heart of rose de mai, jasmine, and heliotrope, which add floral warmth and depth. The base notes of cognac, benzoin, tobacco, vanilla, patchouli, sandalwood, and ambergris bring a rich, enveloping finish that lingers on the skin.
Apply this fragrance lightly to allow its layers to unfold naturally. The fresh spicy top notes are fleeting, so a few sprays will ensure that you catch the transition into the rich base notes. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than across a room.
