The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Enigma Pour Homme by Roja Dove, launched in 2013, is a warm and spicy Oriental fragrance that embodies the essence of intrigue and sophistication. The composition opens with black pepper and bergamot, creating an initial sharpness that quickly gives way to cognac and tobacco, adding depth and warmth. The heart notes of ginger and jasmine balance the richness with a touch of freshness, while vanilla and benzoin in the base create a cozy, enveloping finish.

How to wear it

Apply Enigma Pour Homme to pulse points for a slow reveal — it takes about an hour to fully settle. The spicy top notes are fleeting, so the heart and base notes do most of the work, making this fragrance ideal for evening or cooler evenings.
