The story behind the bottle.
Roja Dove launched Reckless in 2011, positioning it as an Oriental Floral fragrance that defies convention with its complex layers of warmth and freshness. The opening notes of aldehydes and citruses create a vibrant contrast to the heart's rich jasmine, ylang-ylang, and rose, which are then grounded by a base of warm spices, woods, leather, and musk. This fragrance is a study in contrasts — bright and bold yet deeply sensual.
Apply two sprays to allow the aldehydes and citruses to shine through initially. As Reckless settles into its heart notes, it will evolve into a warm, enveloping scent that lingers close to the skin.
