Hello beautiful! Today's review is about another perfume. This one is special. Special because i got to meet the perfumer himself. I will be talking about ROJA parfums and my experience of meeting Mr. ROJA DOVE the nose behind these exquisite parfums. The whole experience was so surreal. The fact that this job gives me opportunities to meet amazing people from all around the world is what makes it worth it! Yes being a blogger is amazing and has its perks in the forms of excellent goodies & fame. But then once in a while there comes a time when you get to meet amazing human beings and this meeting was all that and more. It was once in a lifetime opportunity for sure. Lets get on with the review shall we...
So a selected few bloggers from UAE were called in for a sit down with the genius himself Mr. Roja Dove, the english perfumer who has spent years in the Middle East learning its way & its love & obsession with OUD & traditions. It was such a good sit-down with Mr. Dove explaining his love for perfumes and when he first realised as to what he wanted to do in life. Which was thanks to his mother. Taking feelings and experiences in and turning them into perfumes is what makes these brand and Mr. Dove so special. Such a reputed and famous man but yet so humble. It was truly an experience. The perfumes he makes are def collectors items and truly worth cherishing. He is also known for making select few bottles of a perfume just because he wants too, again making his customer feel special. He and is brand is not 'market driven', wherein he is not driven by the demands of the market (suits/corporates) and does not have a need to meet them, instead like a true creative soul he does what he thinks his customers will love & want, such an in depth knowledge of his consumers. Bravo. He loves his consumers so much that he does private blends too, which is more personal than any other company, might i say so myself. His love for perfumes go beyond those needs, its like he said- making perfumes was his true calling. He makes these perfumes for his loyal customers which also include celebrities & royals from all over the world. Such a visionary. The perfumes though luxurious are within the grasp of the common man, giving us a peek inside his creative outlet.

Innuendo by Roja is a sweet perfume which has a deep heart and a powdery freshness. Something which is very versatile in my opinion and can be worn during day/night. This perfume is so exquisite and unique, something i am sure a lot of perfume enthusiast will love. It has the freshness of an english perfume with the depth of the middle east. This perfume is a bit pricey but so worth it. If you have a special person in your life who loves perfumes this is it. The packaging is very simple, square glass bottle with a delicate square cap. On the bigger 100ml bottles you do get the precious stone caps, i am assuming. I would have loved that bottle, to add a lil sparkle to my life. This perfume is seriously delectable and a lovely Holiday gift. The sillage of this perfume is amazing so is the staying power, i wore it for the whole day and the next day in the morning i could still smell it on my wrist. Amazing.
PRICE:
QUANTITY: 50ml & 100ml.
AVAILABILITY: Paris Gallery in Middle East.
Hope this review was helpful and do let me know if any of you guys have tried or bought ROJA perfumes. They are so luxurious and unique in every way. Thank you Paris Gallery ME team for such an amazing experience. Until my next post.
