The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Nüwa by Roja Dove launched in 2014 as a sophisticated Oriental Floral fragrance that balances freshness and warmth. The composition opens with bright citrus notes like lemon and bergamot, which cut through the richness of rose and ylang-ylang, creating an unexpected tension. As it settles into its woody base, elements like oakmoss, birch, and patchouli add earthy depth, while ambergris and labdanum lend a luxurious warmth.

How to wear it

Apply Nüwa to pulse points for a balanced experience — the bright citrus opening gives way to rich florals within an hour. For optimal warmth, layer it over a light moisturizer in cooler weather.
