The story behind the bottle.
Roja Dove Parfum Royale #2, launched in 2016 by the eponymous perfumer Roja Dove, is a sophisticated blend of floral and spicy accords. The fragrance opens with a bright burst of citrus from lemon and bergamot before transitioning to an intricate heart featuring May Rose, ylang-ylang, and immortelle. This floral bouquet is punctuated by warm spices like cumin and cloves, creating a dynamic tension between freshness and depth. The base notes of labdanum, oakmoss, leather, and musk ground the composition in earthy richness.
One spray is enough to capture the essence of this fragrance. The citrus top notes are quick to dry down, revealing the complex heart and base notes that unfold gradually over time. Best suited for daytime wear when you want a scent that evolves with your surroundings.
