The story behind the bottle.
United Arab Emirates by Roja Dove launched in 2017 as an ode to the region's rich cultural blend, blending traditional and modern elements into its composition. The fragrance opens with a vibrant citrus-aromatic accord of bergamot and cassis, followed by a heart of rose de mai and ylang-ylang that is both floral and spicy. At its core lies oud, labdanum, and musk, creating a warm and woody base that anchors the scent in its heritage.
Two sprays to the pulse points will allow the rose and oud to meld over time. The fragrance is best worn during cooler evenings when its woody warmth can fully envelop you.
