The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017, Kuwait by Roja Dove is a complex Oriental fragrance that weaves together warm spices and powdery musks with rich woods and animalic notes. The composition begins with citron and rosemary, giving way to a heart of rose de mai, jasmine, and orange blossom. It settles into an enveloping base of oud, civet, vanilla, and ambergris, creating layers that are both intimate and bold. This fragrance captures the essence of Roja Dove's signature style, blending traditional accords with unexpected depth.

How to wear it

Apply Kuwait in light layers to allow its complex notes to unfold gradually. The rich base notes take time to bloom, so it's best to wear this fragrance for a full day or evening event where you can fully experience its depth. It reads better close to skin than from a distance.
