About This Perfume

Think creamy leather with a soft musky warmth and delicate florals: that is Roja Musk Aoud Absolue Précieux. It opens with bergamot and lemon, moves into may rose, Grasse jasmine and ylang-ylang and settles on Oud, musk and ambrette. It reads unisex.

This fragrance is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. Reach for it for casual days. Released in 2013.

Wearers report that it lasts through a full day, and projects strongly and fills a room. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.

Is it right for you?

  • Best for: anyone after something woody and grounded for casual days.
  • Sample first if: you are unsure about strong woody notes; this one divides opinion.
  • Skip if: you dislike oriental fragrances.

Around $1148.

The Brand

Roja

Roja has 183 perfumes indexed on Scendira, Scendira's highest-priced brand by a wide margin. The six most-common accords are woody (109 perfumes), citrus (56), amber (52), aromatic (44), powdery (39), and warm-spiced (35), built on bergamot, jasmine, rose, musk, patchouli, and vanilla. Prices run $129.95 to $3,500, with a $500 median, luxury pricing throughout. 65% of the range reads unisex. By community mentions, Elysium Noir leads clearly, followed by Burlington 1819, then a tight cluster of Oceania, Apex, and Enigma. Roja Dove is a British luxury perfumer, and the catalogue reflects that: aromatic-citrus openings on a woody, powdery base, in the register of a serious, old-world perfume house rather than a mass-market Gulf brand. Filter by note below, or ask Dira which Roja perfume actually matches what you want to smell like.
