The story behind the bottle.
Parfum De La Nuit No 1 by Roja Dove was launched in 2015, crafted by the perfumer himself to be provocative and rich. The fragrance begins with a bright bergamot note that quickly gives way to a warm blend of guaiac wood and cedar, enlivened by clove and saffron. This complex heart is anchored by a soft, balsamic base of labdanum, benzoin, vanilla, and tonka bean, made sensually intense with the addition of castoreum and civet. The overall effect is both consuming and predatory, capturing the essence of an evening that demands attention.
This fragrance is best applied in moderation; two sprays are enough to capture its rich complexity. It blooms slowly over time, so allow it to settle into your skin before venturing out. The animalic base notes enhance its warmth, making it ideal for cooler evenings.
