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.
