    Description

    A Goodnight Kiss by ROJA London is a deeply personal and evocative fragrance, designed to capture the tender memory of a mother's goodnight kiss. It opens with a sparkling blend of aldehydes and bergamot, quickly transitioning into a rich, powdery floral heart. Here, notes of carnation, May rose, violet, and orris create a vintage cosmetic feel, reminiscent of face powder on blushing cheeks. As it settles, warm hints of musk and leather emerge, grounding the composition in a soft, comforting embrace, while a unique rice powder accord lingers, evoking a sense of cherished nostalgia. This scent beautifully balances modern artistry with classic elegance, unfolding gracefully on the skin. Perfumer: Roja Dove
