UNITED ARAB EMIRATES - ROJA

UNITED ARAB EMIRATES - ROJA

I spent three years working in the Middle East where I became fascinated by the scents I encountered. A luxurious exoticism floats in the air - rich, complex, full of volume. In over thirty years of training, I have never encountered a culture that has such an affection for the ritual of Perfume, which is truly embedded in the framework of daily life. This unparalleled experience enchanted me; I fell in love with the perfumes of the Middle East and the people who wore them. I created "Spirit of the Union" to translate this feeling, as a sign of deep appreciation for this nation of perfume. The bottle is adorned with a cap bearing Swarovski crystals representing the colors of the flag of the United Arab Emirates. - Roja Dove

Bergamot and Mugwort surround a bouquet of Jasmine, Ylang Ylang, and Geranium with their freshness. Then the major note of Taif Rose is revived by Blackcurrant buds, and a blend of Cloves, Pink Pepper, and Cumin adds its liveliness. The warmth of Guaiac Wood and Aoud, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Papyrus nestle into an ultra-soft and sensual base note of Benzoin, Labdanum, Cistus, and Musc.
