The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2014, United Arab Emirates Spirit Of The Union by Roja Dove is an Oriental Woody fragrance that celebrates the union and heritage of the UAE. At its heart lies Taif Rose, a floral note that radiates elegance and warmth, supported by the rich depth of Oud and the powdery softness of musk. The composition opens with fresh spicy notes like Bergamot and Pink Pepper, which add a vibrant contrast to the warm, woody base. This fragrance is a harmonious blend of traditional and modern elements, capturing the essence of a place where ancient traditions meet contemporary sophistication.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to your pulse points for a subtle yet lasting presence. The Taif Rose note blooms best close to skin, so a heavier application at first can enhance its richness as it settles throughout the day.
