UAE Extrait de Parfum

A rooftop in Dubai at night: the city glittering far below, a breeze carrying the complex mingling of shisha smoke, rose water, and the ancient, sacred smoke of oud bakhoor rising from somewhere far beneath. This is the scene that perfumer Roja Dove conjures in UAE — a contemporary portrait of a nation as deeply devoted to the perfumery tradition as any culture on earth, expressed through an accord that merges the ancient and the entirely modern in perfect, sophisticated equilibrium.

Bergamot and artemisia compose a refined, slightly herbaceous opening before the composition deepens through geranium, rose de Mai, jasmin de Grasse, ylang ylang, cistus, clove buds, and blackcurrant buds — a complex floral-fruity accord enriched with spiced resinous depth. Pink pepper, cumin, cypriol, patchouli, oakmoss, guaiacwood, oud, benzoin, frankincense, labdanum, and musk form the base: a deeply saturated, distinctly Middle Eastern accord of considerable authority, anchored by the region's two most sacred aromatic materials.
