    Description

    Sultanate of Oman by ROJA London opens with a vibrant burst of citrus, where bright grapefruit and orange, sometimes joined by bergamot and lemon, create an invigorating and fresh introduction. This initial sparkle soon gives way to a rich, opulent heart, featuring a beautiful bouquet of rose de Mai, jasmine, and violet, often sweetened by a juicy raspberry note and given a green edge by geranium and the resinous warmth of labdanum. As the fragrance evolves, it settles into a majestic and deeply resonant base, showcasing the spiritual depth of Omani frankincense and precious oud, intertwined with a complex tapestry of woods like sandalwood, cedarwood, guaiac wood, and birch. Spices such as cardamom and saffron add intrigue, while ambergris, musk, and a hint of leather provide a sensual, long-lasting finish, creating a scent that is both powerful and elegantly balanced. This fragrance is a masterclass in layering, immersing the wearer in the rich traditions of the Middle East. Perfumer: Roja Dove
