About This Perfume
A beach holiday in slow motion, Roja Isola Sol smells like sun-warmed citrus and peach over creamy sandalwood and salt.
Peach, apricot, bergamot, mandarin orange, lemon and petitgrain open it juicy and golden. The heart is jasmine sambac, coconut, ylang-ylang and neroli, creamy and floral, like suncream and flowers on warm skin. Ambroxan, musk, amyris, salty notes, cedarwood, pink pepper and sandalwood form the base, soft, salty and smooth.
This 2024 release reads unisex and is a daytime scent for spring, summer and fall, especially lovely on a date. It lasts a long time and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone who loves solar, salty florals with peach and coconut.
- Sample first if: you are thinking of buying blind. The community finds it divisive, rates it low on blind-buy safety and scores it low on value at this price.
- Skip if: you want a cozy winter scent or a budget pick.
Around $500.

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.
