Thank you, Roja, for doing these Q&A (and all the other videos as well!) I'm making my way through them all and I enjoy them so much! You have a gift of bringing information across in such a structured way while at the same time mix it with a little storytelling, which I find very interesting ☺️ please don't stop with these videos! 🤗 Best regards, Leni
Dear Roja, you’re so elegant and sophisticated! Your physical appearance, smile, refinement is a perfect match to your perfumes! My sincere compliments!
I always have to smile, when getting the notification about your new videos. It is always a real pleasure to watch them and learn a bit more about Rojas world. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and bringing us closer to the world of fragrances. You are not only an enrichment with the products of your work, but also as a really kind person in the social media. Thanks for sharing. If I would be able financially, I would buy more Fragrances to support you and your great business. Kind regards from Germany!
Enigma is sooo grrrr, I can never afford this! I passed up a great offer at Selfridges for £180 for the Extrait bottle 3 years ago and still regretting it to this day lol
You don't know how much I appreciate these videos, because I learn about perfumery in a really different way in compare to all the other youtube channels. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us in a such a didactic and humble way.
I simply can't believe people don't like chypres... I'm no aficionado myself, but I couldn't imagine living in a world without Mitsouko or the like. Keep going!
Aloha Roja! I’m just posting to say thank you for your wonderful fragrances! I just picked up Creation-E and am in love with this masterpiece. Mahalo from Hawaii!
Dear Mr. Dove. Until recently, I didn't know anything about you and your wonderful creations. I lost my heart to Chypre Extraordinaire. Never in my whole life have I smelled such a fragrant firework of noble notes. I've smelled a lot of nobels fragrances, but never anything like that. Chypre Extraordinaire smells of flowers, resins, powdery, woody but also of fruity notes. You can tell which category this fragrance is based on. This fragrance takes time to develop. Chypre Extraordinaire sends your thoughts on a journey. You can tell a masterpiece was created here, out of love and not out of commerce. Thank you very much for this soul comforter as a fragrance. I love your wonderful, familiar voice that sounds so rustic.
I just want to tell you how much I love your fragrances....I had a goodnight kiss....I had saved for ever to vet a large bottle....only to have the airport lose my luggage and only got to use it once I was devastated. ...with the way things are now I cant get another ...but it's just beautiful ty for your hard beautiful work...maybe one day u can get it again....your amazing!!!
Fascinating! I was planning to blind buy 'Parfum De La Nuit 2' based on its description. Now, that you, Roja, mentioned N1, I have to re-think my decision :))
*Very cool connecting with your community on RUclips so we can appreciate you more.* *I strongly feel that you need to slightly lower your price for your frags to justify the lack of longivity.*
The one "what makes a scent masculine" question was a good one for me. Very well explained sir. In a basic sense, I guess it all boils down to scent being subjective and the open mind. But, on the other hand, thank you for continuing the productions of pour homme and pour femme distinctions (or what is perceived) in your collections. 😬 Thanks for your endowed passion and contribution to this artistry.
Tommy Milton that was my question! And I asked because I find it interesting that Sir Dove makes male and female versions of his scents, unlike, say, Tom Ford. But in another video he also explained that in some countries men will only buy if the label says Pour Homme.
I'm not familiar with your perfumes, most likely as I doubt I could afford them. (Usually, I wear Guerlain's Mitsouko.) However, I watched this video and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. I hope to see more of what, to me, seem like delightful lectures. Thank you. Best wishes, Susan.
I really love your short videos here Roja! They’re incredibly informative. I completely agree with your position on wearing fragrances based on gender vs wearing whatever blows your hair back. Also I adored your sense of humor here
Roja Dove whether it’s 25 minutes or 2.5 hours; I am always eternally delighted to hear you thoughts and share your wisdom within this passion of ours we call the fragrance world
Almost five months from your last video. I hope you had a lovely Christmas and all the best for the New Year. I took the plunge and am now the proud owner of Enigma Cologne. I was holding out to be able to buy it from your Mayfair shop, but due to all this Corona mess, I was unable to. Your fragrance arrived with an additional full travel atomiser and a complimentary travel atomiser containing my choice of fragrance ( Oceana). All very generous. I am a champion of the Roja Dove brand and you as a wonderfully talented creator. Wishing you every good fortune for 2021.
Dear Roja, I just happened to come across your channel this evening, although I'm now subscribed. So kind of you to take the time to answer various questions with such detailed explanations whilst so humble. I got into scents approximately a year ago and have been building a small collection, to include designer and some niche. Although not recommended to do, I did 'blind-buy' a couple of designer colognes (after watching reviews) which I regretted, as they were not for me. However, I admit that I also blind-bought Roja Dove ELYSIUM, and besides being really impressed with the beautiful bottle, packaging AND the unexpected full, classy and generous size glass travel atomiser, I was amazed at the smell. From the opening notes, to middle and base, great projection and longevity, I was so pleased, especially as the days and weeks went on, as I was able to wear Elysium a number of times and it is just so enjoyable to wear. I have certainly received compliments and it is actually my wife's best scent I own, even far more than my PDM (L'yt), C'rd Av's & others. I'm looking forward to eventually trying Roja Dove DANGER. It's also great to see such a high quality unique range from the UK (where I'm also from), instead of the usual France, Italy, USA, etc. No disrespect at all though. 👏👏👏👏👏
Hello Roja,I am a 19 year old who got into the world of fragrance about a year ago,I love your fragrances{particularly Elysium) and would like to thank you for your work and dedication!
The story of Noir is absolutely wonderful! You didn’t sound arrogant at all saying you would wear your own work. If you won’t wear it why would we:-) I couldn’t agree more on the topic of gender in perfume. I might be classified as a “typical masculine” man and I will absolutely wear white florals. Also Jasmine is a note I adore and it smells beautiful on my skin as does Iris. I agree completely! I wear what I feel. Your work is simply amazing and I’m very new to discovering Roja however it’s amazing and I’m excited to have Roja on my fragrance Journey!
Love the comment about the acute sense of smell some people have. My 11-year-old has been picking out the light notes in my perfumes for a long time. We used to go to the stores testing fragrances and she would smell the notes I could not and the Sales Associate had no idea the fragrances had the notes in them until we looked them up. Even the knowledgeable SAs at the Tom Ford our Bond counter as Saks. Really? then they look it up and "Wow, you are right." If I am not mistaken Roja has been at Saks in Troy Michigan where we often go to test new fragrances together.
I love these. I always pick up on something new which really explains something in my own perfume experience which has left me a little confused. Constantly answering questions I never thought to ask.
I am new to the niche fragrance community. You are a fascinating man. I love your passion and creativeness. I just left a comment about your interview with Sebastian. I loved it. I absolutely admire and respect how you keep true to yourself. Would love to read one day an autobiography or biography about you and your life's journey. Fascinating!
Hello Mr Roja. I appreciate the time you take to explain and mingle with us on youtube. 😊 my question is; what is your absolute favorit fragrance other than your own brand? What is that 1 you Think of right away when asked this? 🙏🏼 thank you very much. .
Hi Roja, it really is a joy to watch your videos and as someone who is a huge fan of your creations ( enigma, reckless, danger, oligarch, elysium pour homme and vetiver pour homme in particular are ones my wife really loves on me, both in our early 30's ) it truly is a pleasure to find so much scent variations within your line and there are so many more I am keen to get my nose on :). If you don't mind me asking, how do you make a parfume so velvety smooth? It's something that so far I am yet to find in any other line and it's why your perfumes are a favourite of mine out of the 120 or so I currently own ( mostly niche with some designers ). Vetiver extrait / pour homme in particular has this almost velvety / buttery feel which is absolutely divine. Thanks in advance Roja and hope your staying healthy and well!
Thank you so much! To answer your question, the velvety quality would likely come from plenty of warm materials. But if you are talking about the entire breadth of the collection, then perhaps it is more to do with the quality of the materials as a whole? Rx
@@rojadove4680 It's such a pleasure to hear back from you Roja and I really appreciate you letting me know :) yes I would say that I have experienced this throughout the breadth of your collection thus far, particularly in the heart of the perfume where it literally feels like you are wearing a velvet blanket, very encompassing and euphoric inducing. Hopefully later this month i'll be purchasing haute luxe as after sampling it today I have completely fallen in love with the rich complexity and artistry that has gone into making this. I am yet to try musk aoud absolue précieux as well as de la nuit 3 however these are certainly next on my "to try" list. My wife is here with me now ( she can see my excitement to have received a response from you haha ) and is wondering that as someone who enjoys smelling semi sweet / smooth / aromatic scents on me is there 1 in particular you would recommend out of your collection that would be worth a try outside of the ones previously mentioned? Thank you so much again for your time Roja, this is quite incredible for me actually as you are genuinely my favourite perfumer in the industry so to speak with you directly is such an honour:)
I've been watching a lot of cologne review videos recently which has led me here,it's funny to hear them pronounce your name Roha,Rosha very poshly. You say "hello Roger here"
Hello, Roja - when might we expect to see new parfum colognes after the immense success of the parfum cologne releases of 2019? You can't leave the guys out of your plans for new fragrances! We await with bated breath...Thank you, and to a healthy and prosperous 2021.
Im from Israel and we have a holiday that only one stream in the Judaism that called Jerba's are doing in this holiday (Sukkot holiday ) , we use something that called Ketoret and then burn it and it small just like something you've ever smelled before i assure you, its not Bejur and not oud its a quarts stone that my grandma gets from old Yemen guy only in this holiday if you want you can come in and i will give you to smell it , the holiday is getting closer. loves your perfumes you toke me to Tripp to heaven sent.
Hello Mr. Dove! I have through your creation Diaghilev yet again fallen in love with chypres, a genre I had strayed away from on account of weakened reformulations of age old classics. I look to your creations to discover the lost grandeur of classic perfumery, my favourite Guerlain happens to be L'Heure Bleue, and I cannot express in words how much the essence of this perfume moves me... My request and query is that might you be able to point me towards a creation of yours which harkens back to vintage L'Heure Bleue, I'd be forever indebted to you for your guidance dear sir...
Good Morning Roja. I would have a question as well please, personally what would be your choice of non scented lotion/moisturizer to seal the fragrance with, after the scent was applied to the skin? Thank you
I have a question for the next episode... Are there any notes that you wish to smell that you haven't yet.... and how does one with great experience like yourself discover a new or unheard of note for that matter.
Dear Roja, thank you so much for your supremely informative videos. Your calm and deep voice makes it a pleasure to watch the videos. I have two questions: - Do you suggest any book to a perfume lover who wants to understand perfumes better? - I am a woman in my late 30’s living in NY. Until a few years ago I felt like a girl and enjoyed “girly” fresh scents for myself, like Clinic Happy or DKNY Be Delicious. But I feel like a woman now and those perfumes don’t feel right anymore. I’m looking for a daytime more sophisticated perfume, but not as woman-y & mature as say Poison or Givenchy’s perfume. Do you have any suggestions for me? Should I go warmer? Earthier? Less floral? Thanks for your help!
Dear Kiana, Thank you for getting in touch. There are so many books out there on Perfumery and I have shelves upon shelves of them, all of which have been useful to me in different ways. It really depends on what you are hoping to discover, as there isn't one set text. My recommendation would be that it is time to upgrade the quality of your scent, not the style of it. You can still wear a fresh and feminine scent, but it will smell more sophisticated as the quality will be better. Pop into Bergdorfs and explore what they have on offer - tell the sales people what you are looking for and they will be able to find you something that matches your existing and aspiring style. Much love, Rx
It would have to be bright, light and ethereal. Something with gentle powdery tones but with aldehydes to create a sparkling effect. Possibly something most akin would be NüWa or A Goodnight Kiss, to be honest. Rx
I hope all is well, I noticed you haven't had any new videos for quite a while. Hopefully you're just happily busy! Stay safe in these trying times friend, I really look forward to a new upload when you have the time and energy.
Hello! Exactly that - in quite a strange year, it has been both keeping me busy but also keeping me very isolated, to ensure I keep myself and everyone else safe! Hope to be back to talking to you all soon. Rx
This is fascinating, thank you for making these videos! I'm a big fan of your fragrances and I'm very interested to hear you speak a bit about the technical side. I'm wondering now, if oils hold on to the fragrance, then why not use oil instead of alcohol? Especially since the skin's oil content varies so wildly among different people. Is it the fact that people would rather not get oil on their skin, and alcohol evaporates quickly and is imperceptible? Or is the reason more functional rather than just aesthetic?
correct - oil will just stay on top of the skin and create a sticky experience that stains clothing. Alcohol is needed to help the scent lift, so that it can actually be smelt. Perfume needs a blend of oil and alcohol to create the right balance. Rx
Leather is my top list yet my go-to aroma in perfume. I can say im obsessed with leather scent. But im curious, “where did the leather aroma in perfume came from?”
It is a pleasure to hear your explanations about fragrances. So much knowledge and so much general culture. I'm a fan of yours from Brasil. About perfumes and olfactory notes, I would like you to know that, like you, I am also an eternal Leather note fan. Either used as a note or as a scent accord in the composition. I would love to hear from you how Leather notes are created in perfumery. As far as I know, it would be some ingredients such as Cedar, Oud, Saffron, combined to create the odor similar to a tanned leather skin. For example, the interior of a new Rolls Royce car has odors that make me completely crazy. They are wonderful and noble smells by nature that would not even be classified as fragrances. Smells soft and at the same time strong. Is there anything similar in your wonderful collection of fragrances? Unfortunately, here in Brazil we have very little access to super special perfumes such as the Roja Dove Collection. Success and a big hug, in the size of Brazil!
@RojaDove have you ever thought of making hair mist on a Goodnight Kiss :) because I reckon it be beautiful as your fragrances already are. Hoping to hear you again soon Thank you so much Mr Roja Dove 🕊
Hello Sam. Thank you for asking. We are definitely more of a perfume brand than anything else, and I don't see myself extending the Hair Mists for the time being. We can only really make them in our top-seller scents. Rx
@@rojadove4680 that's absolutely fine and I'm so glad for you and your brand as it is a masterpiece. Hopefully see what the future brings and I can't wait to see the newest creations in the future :)
I hear you are the best perfumer on the planet (from many sources). I'm Luc. My question is, "after you retire, someone will be considered the best on the planet like you; would it surprise you if that person was not classically trained?"
That is very kind. I think there are many many people more talented than I, but it is nice of you to say. What are my feelings toward the idea of the best person on the planet were not classically trained? Well, I think that would be great. Not that it is a measurable thing, but I don't think that where and how someone was trained qualifies them as a contender for this accolade - it should all come down to talent, passion and hard work. It would be like saying only people educated at Oxford or Cambridge could be considered the best academics in their field - what about all those brilliant minds that went elsewhere, or didn't even go to university? That's an outdated way of thinking. And whilst I am eternally grateful for my training, I do realise that it isn't the be all and end all. Rx
@@rojadove4680 What a conscientious, humble, & inspiring answer. Thank you, Mr. Dove. I'm 3 months into this art. My effort and passion consistent, yet talent awaits. Last night, my 22nd blend was my worst yet. I fell asleep consumed with doubt, "am I an imposter? How dare I think I could be great when I'm so far away?" For the 1st time fear outweighed ambition. Waking up to your unexpected response is serendipitous wind behind my sail. Thank you. I will embrace 2 of your recommended 3 tenants and leave the 3rd for others and fate to decide, which if nothing else, is what I can gather and emulate from your response. Humbly, thankfully, & with warmest of regards...I Luke Andrew Prados am going to invest my life proving you right. - Luc
@@rojadove4680 Jan 6th is 13 weeks away. I'm going to make many mixes and 1 primary scent per 1 per week. The 13th, A Tender Glow, will honor Mrs. Dove for raising such an inspiring man. You're a good man. Warmest regards Roja. - Luc
Hes not the best perfumer on the planet, im sure he likes to think he is. Just because he charges ridiculous amounts for his fragrances it doesn't mean they're any good, calice Becker is a better perfumer
Roja, would you ever do a fragrance inspired by Ireland or an Irish character? I am begging for someone to draw inspiration from Éireann. Lush green countryside, rugged rocky coastlines, a rich literary history, and Celtic mythology. We could go on!
23:52 Attar oil is the truest perfume ! For perfumes with alcohol, the price is based on the concentration of the oils! But this rule is for brand name perfumes! For example, I bought pure perfume oil from Dubai, at a very advantageous price, where it had no brand name! A name costs 60%, of which the rest is the design of the container, and the liquid inside has the lowest value! Is it worth the price only for a specific brand smells ?? No way ...
great video, I have been highly interested in your frangances and would love to try them out one day..lol I am on the hunt for a classy/sexy scent with good performance
If applying perfume to the neck is a no no, where to apply perfume when I wear suits, jackets, and long sleeves? Without applying to clothes, there is very little sillage.
Try applying to the tops of hands - a lovely place to spray, as you can keep sniffing it all day - and spraying on the inside of a jacket, so long as it is dark material and has dried before being closer (ie rubbing off on white shirts) Rx
@@rojadove4680 thank you for your response! Most people dismiss my concern of applying in the neck area. I don't remember if you have addressed the application of sunscreen in your videos. I remember you have discussed when to apply perfume with moisturizer. When would you apply perfume when adding sunscreen in the equation?
@@GeraltBosMang Hello. I would say sunscreen acts similarly to moisturiser in that it'll lock the scent in. But go for a lightweight, good quality, unscented SPF to allow your fragrance to not be compromised. Rx
Do you have any plans on making a fragrance that is inspired by ramadan or anything of that sort? And how do I train my nose on how to distinguish the different notes in a perfume
I have a question. I saw you mentioned skin dryness influences how long a perfume will last on your skin. What would you suggest to promote more oils in your skin so that perfume will last longer?
i wanted a treat for me for the hard work this year so wanted to buy Roja Elysium, would have been my first Roja perfume(i have around 60 perfumes mostly niche)..i was massively disappointed when i saw that only 100ml is available.... considering the amount of perfumes i have ...100ml will last me 10 years... why only 100ml bottles?
Im intrigued to try out your perfumes. Is it possible to buy like 5ml of diferent perfumes from your brand to find out which ones one suits the most? Regards from Switzerland
Hello! I do try to make videos about my creations but these are more about the stories behind them. To review my own scents would be a bit biased, so I leave up to the amazing FragCom to give their honest opinions :) Rx
Is there anyway to contact you? I purchased a 100ml Elysium special edition bottle from Harrods and it was sealed when I received it but the bottle is missing 10ml at least. Not only that but there is debris inside the bottle. I have emailed Harrods and Roja customer service to see what they can do about this. I’m very disappointed and didn’t expect this from a $600 bottle
Hello Mr. Dove, I am new to the world of perfume. I wanted to know if you would be created a new updated version of your book that may include how to construct fragrances for candles. Thank you for your time if you decide to answer back. I'm definitely subbing.
Hello Chey. I am still deciding what to do about the book. Unfortunately, there is so much else going on that it isn't high up on my list to tackle at the moment. My apologies. Rx
Hello - I recommend spraying on the insides of the jacket, so the scent disperses with movement. But if you are wearing a white shirt underneath then it is best to spray the inside of the jacket whilst it is on a hanger and waiting for it to dry, just to ensure no oil is transferred onto the shirt. Another recommendation would be to spray scent on the tops of your hands. When wearing a shirt, the typical places to apply scent - the wrists and neck - aren't as exposed, but I always spray my hands anyway, as it gives just the same effect. Also feel free to create a light mist in the air and walk into it, so it settles gently onto the jacket. Just never spray too directly onto materials to avoid staining. Hope that helps. Rx
Really sorry! Things are all a bit mad these days and we are incredibly busy as well as ensuring we do what we can to stay safe, so I am at home all the time. Hope to be back to creating content ASAP. Rx
Hi, Roja! Please answer me: the versions Amber Aoud Parfum Crystal, Amber Aoud Absolue Précieux has exactly the same smell as Amber Aoud Parfum? Is it the same with the Crystal and Absolue Précieux versions of Musk Aoud Parfum and Aoud Parfum? Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Amber Aoud and Amber Aoud Crystal are the exact same scent and Parfum concentration, just that the Crystal version is colourless. The Absolue is the same scent but a much higher concentration. Rx
Hello Jen, I think you may have got the wrong information somewhere. When you purchase a full bottle, or £190+ worth of product, on www.rojaparfums.com, you are entitled to a complimentary 7.5ml Discovery Atomiser up to the price of £85 (so effectively anything other than the 5x Haute Luxe scents and the 3x Absolue Precieux scents). If you purchase £1000 worth of product, you are then eligible to choose any 1x 7.5ml Discovery Atomiser (including 5x Haute Luxe scents and the 3x Absolue Precieux scents). Hope that helps. Rx
In my opinion. Any Creed fragrance. I know that I will hurt some peoples feelings but it is a personal opinion that some night share or some might completely disagree with. Especially Green Irish Tweed (GIT) and Aventus. I live in the Irish countryside and GIT doesn't remind of it at all.
I don't think that's a question I am really able to answer, I'm afraid. I put so much time and care into each scent I create, and will only release them to the world when I am 100% happy with them. Sometimes they can take me years of work. So it's kind of like asking which of your children you like best. Perhaps I can counter with an answer for which scents I have been blown away by the world's reaction to? I remember thinking Sweetie Aoud would be a very particular taste, but people - especially men - went crazy for it. Sometimes a scent can surprise you with how it captures an audience, but I really don't create things either for a mass-market audience, or a very very niche audience of a small handful. I simply create what I want to create. Rx
Such a shame your fragrances are completely overpriced, I wouldnt mind trying some of them but there's no justification for the pretentious prices, I mean that roja haute lux is £2500!!!!!! You obviously swapped your passion for art to the passion for money, ridiculous price for a bottle of liquid

Dear Mr. Dove.
Until recently, I didn't know anything about you and your wonderful creations.
I lost my heart to Chypre Extraordinaire.
Never in my whole life have I smelled such a fragrant firework of noble notes.
I've smelled a lot of nobels fragrances, but never anything like that.
Chypre Extraordinaire smells of flowers, resins, powdery, woody but also of fruity notes.
You can tell which category this fragrance is based on.
This fragrance takes time to develop.
Chypre Extraordinaire sends your thoughts on a journey.
You can tell a masterpiece was created here, out of love and not out of commerce.
Thank you very much for this soul comforter as a fragrance.
I love your wonderful, familiar voice that sounds so rustic.
That is very kind, thank you so much. I am glad you love it. Rx
Really,really enjoyed listening to you sharing your knowledge about fragrance, as always. Thanks!

lovely, down to earth man, and very professional at the same time
Wow..Roja u nailed it when you said when you wear perfume it's you who is going to a place, the perfume describes you
Fascinating! I was planning to blind buy 'Parfum De La Nuit 2' based on its description. Now, that you, Roja, mentioned N1, I have to re-think my decision :))

*Very cool connecting with your community on RUclips so we can appreciate you more.*
*I strongly feel that you need to slightly lower your price for your frags to justify the lack of longivity.*
The one "what makes a scent masculine" question was a good one for me.
Very well explained sir.
In a basic sense, I guess it all boils down to scent being subjective and the open mind.
But, on the other hand, thank you for continuing the productions of pour homme and pour femme distinctions (or what is perceived) in your collections. 😬
Thanks for your endowed passion and contribution to this artistry.
Tommy Milton that was my question! And I asked because I find it interesting that Sir Dove makes male and female versions of his scents, unlike, say, Tom Ford. But in another video he also explained that in some countries men will only buy if the label says Pour Homme.
Good question@@ellenmeilee

Almost five months from your last video. I hope you had a lovely Christmas and all the best for the New Year. I took the plunge and am now the proud owner of Enigma Cologne.

wow super interesting fact about NuWa. I love the current formulation and name so I'm glad it worked it out that way!
I could watch these videos all day, great content. Thank you for the effort
Thank you so much, I'm glad you like them, Razvan! Rx
Suddenly i found this i'm so mortivated to start my own fragrance now.thank you so much❤
Dear Roja, I just happened to come across your channel this evening, although I'm now subscribed. So kind of you to take the time to answer various questions with such detailed explanations whilst so humble. I got into scents approximately a year ago and have been building a small collection, to include designer and some niche. Although not recommended to do, I did 'blind-buy' a couple of designer colognes (after watching reviews) which I regretted, as they were not for me. However, I admit that I also blind-bought Roja Dove ELYSIUM, and besides being really impressed with the beautiful bottle, packaging AND the unexpected full, classy and generous size glass travel atomiser, I was amazed at the smell. From the opening notes, to middle and base, great projection and longevity, I was so pleased, especially as the days and weeks went on, as I was able to wear Elysium a number of times and it is just so enjoyable to wear. I have certainly received compliments and it is actually my wife's best scent I own, even far more than my PDM (L'yt), C'rd Av's & others. I'm looking forward to eventually trying Roja Dove DANGER. It's also great to see such a high quality unique range from the UK (where I'm also from), instead of the usual France, Italy, USA, etc. No disrespect at all though. 👏👏👏👏👏
This was so lovely to read, thank you so much!!! Rx
Thank you for answering my tobacco question Roja! Made my day! Best wishes
Pleasure - thanks for writing in. Rx
Hello Roja,I am a 19 year old who got into the world of fragrance about a year ago,I love your fragrances{particularly Elysium) and would like to thank you for your work and dedication!
Why thank you so much! Rx
Thank you so much for all your content!! I absolutely love “H the exclusive aoud”. Stay safe!
Aw, thank you so much Bill! Appreciate it. Rx
The story of Noir is absolutely wonderful!
You didn’t sound arrogant at all saying you would wear your own work. If you won’t wear it why would we:-)
I couldn’t agree more on the topic of gender in perfume. I might be classified as a “typical masculine” man and I will absolutely wear white florals. Also Jasmine is a note I adore and it smells beautiful on my skin as does Iris. I agree completely! I wear what I feel.
Your work is simply amazing and I’m very new to discovering Roja however it’s amazing and I’m excited to have Roja on my fragrance Journey!
Aw, thank you so much, Jack! Rx
Thank you for doing what you do, keep up the good work. I wish I had some of your fragrances ❤️
Great content as usual, a joy to watch.
Love the comment about the acute sense of smell some people have. My 11-year-old has been picking out the light notes in my perfumes for a long time. We used to go to the stores testing fragrances and she would smell the notes I could not and the Sales Associate had no idea the fragrances had the notes in them until we looked them up. Even the knowledgeable SAs at the Tom Ford our Bond counter as Saks. Really? then they look it up and "Wow, you are right." If I am not mistaken Roja has been at Saks in Troy Michigan where we often go to test new fragrances together.
I love this message from my garden series! I am looking forward to acquiring my first Roja Dove soon!
I love these. I always pick up on something new which really explains something in my own perfume experience which has left me a little confused. Constantly answering questions I never thought to ask.
You’re amazing! Love your parfumes. 🇺🇸
Thank you so much! Rx
I am new to the niche fragrance community. You are a fascinating man. I love your passion and creativeness. I just left a comment about your interview with Sebastian. I loved it. I absolutely admire and respect how you keep true to yourself. Would love to read one day an autobiography or biography about you and your life's journey. Fascinating!
Welcome! :)
Hello Mr Roja.
I appreciate the time you take to explain and mingle with us on youtube. 😊 my question is; what is your absolute favorit fragrance other than your own brand? What is that 1 you Think of right away when asked this? 🙏🏼 thank you very much. .
Thank you!
it would have to be Mitsouko - it is the one I wore for about 30 years before I made my own scent. Rx
Thank you Mr Dove.
thank you for tuning in. Rx
👍
Hi Roja, it really is a joy to watch your videos and as someone who is a huge fan of your creations ( enigma, reckless, danger, oligarch, elysium pour homme and vetiver pour homme in particular are ones my wife really loves on me, both in our early 30's ) it truly is a pleasure to find so much scent variations within your line and there are so many more I am keen to get my nose on :). If you don't mind me asking, how do you make a parfume so velvety smooth? It's something that so far I am yet to find in any other line and it's why your perfumes are a favourite of mine out of the 120 or so I currently own ( mostly niche with some designers ). Vetiver extrait / pour homme in particular has this almost velvety / buttery feel which is absolutely divine. Thanks in advance Roja and hope your staying healthy and well!
Thank you so much! To answer your question, the velvety quality would likely come from plenty of warm materials. But if you are talking about the entire breadth of the collection, then perhaps it is more to do with the quality of the materials as a whole? Rx
@@rojadove4680 It's such a pleasure to hear back from you Roja and I really appreciate you letting me know :) yes I would say that I have experienced this throughout the breadth of your collection thus far, particularly in the heart of the perfume where it literally feels like you are wearing a velvet blanket, very encompassing and euphoric inducing.
Hopefully later this month i'll be purchasing haute luxe as after sampling it today I have completely fallen in love with the rich complexity and artistry that has gone into making this. I am yet to try musk aoud absolue précieux as well as de la nuit 3 however these are certainly next on my "to try" list. My wife is here with me now ( she can see my excitement to have received a response from you haha ) and is wondering that as someone who enjoys smelling semi sweet / smooth / aromatic scents on me is there 1 in particular you would recommend out of your collection that would be worth a try outside of the ones previously mentioned?
Thank you so much again for your time Roja, this is quite incredible for me actually as you are genuinely my favourite perfumer in the industry so to speak with you directly is such an honour:)
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and opinions.
I've been watching a lot of cologne review videos recently which has led me here,it's funny to hear them pronounce your name Roha,Rosha very poshly. You say "hello Roger here"
Hello, Roja - when might we expect to see new parfum colognes after the immense success of the parfum cologne releases of 2019? You can't leave the guys out of your plans for new fragrances! We await with bated breath...Thank you, and to a healthy and prosperous 2021.
Roja... you once wore a shirt with a lion head and flowers. Who makes it? I need to get one for my lover. 💝😁
Im from Israel and we have a holiday that only one stream in the Judaism that called Jerba's are doing in this holiday (Sukkot holiday ) , we use something that called Ketoret and then burn it and it small just like something you've ever smelled before i assure you, its not Bejur and not oud its a quarts stone that my grandma gets from old Yemen guy only in this holiday
if you want you can come in and i will give you to smell it , the holiday is getting closer.
loves your perfumes you toke me to Tripp to heaven sent.
roja parfums "reckless" the best👌👌👌😍😍😍
but it so expensive and i cant afford😔
Mr. Roja Dove, are you considering to open your own store somewhere in East Europe?
Hello Mr. Dove!
I have through your creation Diaghilev yet again fallen in love with chypres, a genre I had strayed away from on account of weakened reformulations of age old classics.
I look to your creations to discover the lost grandeur of classic perfumery, my favourite Guerlain happens to be L'Heure Bleue, and I cannot express in words how much the essence of this perfume moves me...
My request and query is that might you be able to point me towards a creation of yours which harkens back to vintage L'Heure Bleue, I'd be forever indebted to you for your guidance dear sir...
Brilliant!
Good Morning Roja. I would have a question as well please, personally what would be your choice of non scented lotion/moisturizer to seal the fragrance with, after the scent was applied to the skin? Thank you
I have a question for the next episode... Are there any notes that you wish to smell that you haven't yet.... and how does one with great experience like yourself discover a new or unheard of note for that matter.
I wish to know more about the absolue precieux aouds and how are they made also.
Dear Roja, thank you so much for your supremely informative videos. Your calm and deep voice makes it a pleasure to watch the videos.
I have two questions:
- Do you suggest any book to a perfume lover who wants to understand perfumes better?
- I am a woman in my late 30’s living in NY. Until a few years ago I felt like a girl and enjoyed “girly” fresh scents for myself, like Clinic Happy or DKNY Be Delicious. But I feel like a woman now and those perfumes don’t feel right anymore. I’m looking for a daytime more sophisticated perfume, but not as woman-y & mature as say Poison or Givenchy’s perfume. Do you have any suggestions for me? Should I go warmer? Earthier? Less floral? Thanks for your help!
Dear Kiana,
Thank you for getting in touch.
There are so many books out there on Perfumery and I have shelves upon shelves of them, all of which have been useful to me in different ways. It really depends on what you are hoping to discover, as there isn't one set text.
My recommendation would be that it is time to upgrade the quality of your scent, not the style of it. You can still wear a fresh and feminine scent, but it will smell more sophisticated as the quality will be better. Pop into Bergdorfs and explore what they have on offer - tell the sales people what you are looking for and they will be able to find you something that matches your existing and aspiring style.
Much love, Rx
I have a question for you:
How would you portray the smell of an angel?
It would have to be bright, light and ethereal. Something with gentle powdery tones but with aldehydes to create a sparkling effect. Possibly something most akin would be NüWa or A Goodnight Kiss, to be honest. Rx
I hope all is well, I noticed you haven't had any new videos for quite a while. Hopefully you're just happily busy! Stay safe in these trying times friend, I really look forward to a new upload when you have the time and energy.
Hello! Exactly that - in quite a strange year, it has been both keeping me busy but also keeping me very isolated, to ensure I keep myself and everyone else safe! Hope to be back to talking to you all soon. Rx
I live in Oman where in summer the temperature reaches above 45 degrees Celsius. How do I store my precious perfumes? In refrigerator?
Sir i want that you make a perfume with aisian kinoo mean orange and the wood people burn inside the sitting place in winter
This is fascinating, thank you for making these videos! I'm a big fan of your fragrances and I'm very interested to hear you speak a bit about the technical side.
I'm wondering now, if oils hold on to the fragrance, then why not use oil instead of alcohol? Especially since the skin's oil content varies so wildly among different people. Is it the fact that people would rather not get oil on their skin, and alcohol evaporates quickly and is imperceptible? Or is the reason more functional rather than just aesthetic?
correct - oil will just stay on top of the skin and create a sticky experience that stains clothing. Alcohol is needed to help the scent lift, so that it can actually be smelt. Perfume needs a blend of oil and alcohol to create the right balance. Rx
And also i can desgin your perfumes
Leather is my top list yet my go-to aroma in perfume. I can say im obsessed with leather scent. But im curious, “where did the leather aroma in perfume came from?”
Leather comes from two sources: Labdanum and a high-quality synthetic note. Rx
It is a pleasure to hear your explanations about fragrances. So much knowledge and so much general culture. I'm a fan of yours from Brasil. About perfumes and olfactory notes, I would like you to know that, like you, I am also an eternal Leather note fan. Either used as a note or as a scent accord in the composition. I would love to hear from you how Leather notes are created in perfumery. As far as I know, it would be some ingredients such as Cedar, Oud, Saffron, combined to create the odor similar to a tanned leather skin. For example, the interior of a new Rolls Royce car has odors that make me completely crazy. They are wonderful and noble smells by nature that would not even be classified as fragrances. Smells soft and at the same time strong. Is there anything similar in your wonderful collection of fragrances? Unfortunately, here in Brazil we have very little access to super special perfumes such as the Roja Dove Collection.
Success and a big hug, in the size of Brazil!
Leather notes are either/or Labdanum and a high-quality synthetic Rx
@@rojadove4680 Thank you so much for you attention!
@RojaDove have you ever thought of making hair mist on a Goodnight Kiss :) because I reckon it be beautiful as your fragrances already are. Hoping to hear you again soon Thank you so much Mr Roja Dove 🕊
Hello Sam. Thank you for asking. We are definitely more of a perfume brand than anything else, and I don't see myself extending the Hair Mists for the time being. We can only really make them in our top-seller scents. Rx
@@rojadove4680 that's absolutely fine and I'm so glad for you and your brand as it is a masterpiece. Hopefully see what the future brings and I can't wait to see the newest creations in the future :)
I hear you are the best perfumer on the planet (from many sources). I'm Luc. My question is, "after you retire, someone will be considered the best on the planet like you; would it surprise you if that person was not classically trained?"
That is very kind. I think there are many many people more talented than I, but it is nice of you to say.
What are my feelings toward the idea of the best person on the planet were not classically trained? Well, I think that would be great. Not that it is a measurable thing, but I don't think that where and how someone was trained qualifies them as a contender for this accolade - it should all come down to talent, passion and hard work. It would be like saying only people educated at Oxford or Cambridge could be considered the best academics in their field - what about all those brilliant minds that went elsewhere, or didn't even go to university? That's an outdated way of thinking. And whilst I am eternally grateful for my training, I do realise that it isn't the be all and end all.
Rx
@@rojadove4680 What a conscientious, humble, & inspiring answer. Thank you, Mr. Dove. I'm 3 months into this art. My effort and passion consistent, yet talent awaits. Last night, my 22nd blend was my worst yet. I fell asleep consumed with doubt, "am I an imposter? How dare I think I could be great when I'm so far away?" For the 1st time fear outweighed ambition.
Waking up to your unexpected response is serendipitous wind behind my sail. Thank you. I will embrace 2 of your recommended 3 tenants and leave the 3rd for others and fate to decide, which if nothing else, is what I can gather and emulate from your response. Humbly, thankfully, & with warmest of regards...I Luke Andrew Prados am going to invest my life proving you right.
- Luc
@@scoutwithoutclout It's natural to have those days - it's what we do to change them is what matters! Rx
@@rojadove4680 Jan 6th is 13 weeks away. I'm going to make many mixes and 1 primary scent per 1 per week. The 13th, A Tender Glow, will honor Mrs. Dove for raising such an inspiring man. You're a good man. Warmest regards Roja.
- Luc
Hes not the best perfumer on the planet, im sure he likes to think he is. Just because he charges ridiculous amounts for his fragrances it doesn't mean they're any good, calice Becker is a better perfumer
Roja, would you ever do a fragrance inspired by Ireland or an Irish character? I am begging for someone to draw inspiration from Éireann. Lush green countryside, rugged rocky coastlines, a rich literary history, and Celtic mythology. We could go on!
That sounds lovely! Rx
God bless Chypres!
I like your shirt :)
Td bem roja. ..porque vc não gravou mais vídeos, eu gostaria de trabalhar pra vc ,gosto muitu dos perfumes ,scandal,dhaghlev......!
Great Video. Mr Dove recommend me beast mode perfume with a great sillage for a male ceo
23:52 Attar oil is the truest perfume ! For perfumes with alcohol, the price is based on the concentration of the oils! But this rule is for brand name perfumes! For example, I bought pure perfume oil from Dubai, at a very advantageous price, where it had no brand name! A name costs 60%, of which the rest is the design of the container, and the liquid inside has the lowest value! Is it worth the price only for a specific brand smells ?? No way ...
great video, I have been highly interested in your frangances and would love to try them out one day..lol I am on the hunt for a classy/sexy scent with good performance
Hello Pete,
Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy them, when you get your nose on them! Rx
Hi Mr dove. I want to ask a question, what is man version of elixir? I really like it...thankyou
Hello - that would be Elysium. Rx
If applying perfume to the neck is a no no, where to apply perfume when I wear suits, jackets, and long sleeves? Without applying to clothes, there is very little sillage.
Try applying to the tops of hands - a lovely place to spray, as you can keep sniffing it all day - and spraying on the inside of a jacket, so long as it is dark material and has dried before being closer (ie rubbing off on white shirts) Rx
@@rojadove4680 thank you for your response! Most people dismiss my concern of applying in the neck area.
I don't remember if you have addressed the application of sunscreen in your videos. I remember you have discussed when to apply perfume with moisturizer. When would you apply perfume when adding sunscreen in the equation?
@@GeraltBosMang Hello. I would say sunscreen acts similarly to moisturiser in that it'll lock the scent in. But go for a lightweight, good quality, unscented SPF to allow your fragrance to not be compromised. Rx
Do you have any plans on making a fragrance that is inspired by ramadan or anything of that sort? And how do I train my nose on how to distinguish the different notes in a perfume
Curry and bad body odour?
Giving Jeremy free bottles was a terrible move.
Does Roja have a book on fragrance?
I have a question. I saw you mentioned skin dryness influences how long a perfume will last on your skin. What would you suggest to promote more oils in your skin so that perfume will last longer?
i wanted a treat for me for the hard work this year so wanted to buy Roja Elysium, would have been my first Roja perfume(i have around 60 perfumes mostly niche)..i was massively disappointed when i saw that only 100ml is available.... considering the amount of perfumes i have ...100ml will last me 10 years... why only 100ml bottles?
It comes as a 100ml Parfum-Cologne and a 50ml Parfum. Rx
@@rojadove4680 10x alot...which one would you recommend? I am 40
Im intrigued to try out your perfumes. Is it possible to buy like 5ml of diferent perfumes from your brand to find out which ones one suits the most? Regards from Switzerland
Hello Pascal - we make 7.5ml sizes: rojaparfums.com/products/trial-size Rx
@@rojadove4680 Wonderful. Thank you. Have a great day.
cd u pls do a detailed review of each of ur creations ?
ive seen a lot of Roja reviews but id love to hear it right from the maker himself ?
Hello! I do try to make videos about my creations but these are more about the stories behind them. To review my own scents would be a bit biased, so I leave up to the amazing FragCom to give their honest opinions :) Rx
Is there anyway to contact you? I purchased a 100ml Elysium special edition bottle from Harrods and it was sealed when I received it but the bottle is missing 10ml at least. Not only that but there is debris inside the bottle. I have emailed Harrods and Roja customer service to see what they can do about this. I’m very disappointed and didn’t expect this from a $600 bottle
What is a similar scent to elysium? I get lots of compliments on this one 👌🏼 on my third bottle
Oh wow, 3 down? So glad you continue to enjoy it.
I tend to find people who like Elysium also enjoy: Oceania, 1819, Vetiver, Oligarch. Rx
Hello Mr. Dove, I am new to the world of perfume. I wanted to know if you would be created a new updated version of your book that may include how to construct fragrances for candles. Thank you for your time if you decide to answer back. I'm definitely subbing.
Hello Chey. I am still deciding what to do about the book. Unfortunately, there is so much else going on that it isn't high up on my list to tackle at the moment. My apologies. Rx
Could not one just let the cognac evaporate and make it into an absolute ready for a composition?
Where would you recommend a man spray your fragrance when wearing a suit and tie?
Hello - I recommend spraying on the insides of the jacket, so the scent disperses with movement. But if you are wearing a white shirt underneath then it is best to spray the inside of the jacket whilst it is on a hanger and waiting for it to dry, just to ensure no oil is transferred onto the shirt.
Another recommendation would be to spray scent on the tops of your hands. When wearing a shirt, the typical places to apply scent - the wrists and neck - aren't as exposed, but I always spray my hands anyway, as it gives just the same effect.
Also feel free to create a light mist in the air and walk into it, so it settles gently onto the jacket. Just never spray too directly onto materials to avoid staining. Hope that helps. Rx
Hope you're doing well Roja. Havent seen any new content for a while?
Really sorry! Things are all a bit mad these days and we are incredibly busy as well as ensuring we do what we can to stay safe, so I am at home all the time. Hope to be back to creating content ASAP. Rx
Hi, Roja!
Please answer me: the versions Amber Aoud Parfum Crystal, Amber Aoud Absolue Précieux has exactly the same smell as Amber Aoud Parfum?
Is it the same with the Crystal and Absolue Précieux versions of Musk Aoud Parfum and Aoud Parfum?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Aoud Parfum Absolue Précieux version is way better then Aoud Parfum version.
Amber Aoud and Amber Aoud Crystal are the exact same scent and Parfum concentration, just that the Crystal version is colourless. The Absolue is the same scent but a much higher concentration. Rx
@@rojadove4680 Thank you very much!
Is anyone who buys 190 euros worth of items on Roja Parfums eligible for a 100ml bottle of Roja Haute Luxe? Or do you have to put in a note?
Hello Jen,
I think you may have got the wrong information somewhere. When you purchase a full bottle, or £190+ worth of product, on www.rojaparfums.com, you are entitled to a complimentary 7.5ml Discovery Atomiser up to the price of £85 (so effectively anything other than the 5x Haute Luxe scents and the 3x Absolue Precieux scents). If you purchase £1000 worth of product, you are then eligible to choose any 1x 7.5ml Discovery Atomiser (including 5x Haute Luxe scents and the 3x Absolue Precieux scents).
Hope that helps. Rx
Roja Dove I’m referring to your recent instagram post about winning a full bottle of Roja Haute Luxe, your (beautiful) signature scent
The most amazing parfum that I ever smelled in my entire life is HAUTE LUXE....believe me it’s phenomenal....👍
What you think is your most overrated / overhyped fragrance? 🤔
In my opinion. Any Creed fragrance. I know that I will hurt some peoples feelings but it is a personal opinion that some night share or some might completely disagree with. Especially Green Irish Tweed (GIT) and Aventus. I live in the Irish countryside and GIT doesn't remind of it at all.
OK i can See that but i ASK him for His Brand Not you for Creed lol 😅😆
I don't think that's a question I am really able to answer, I'm afraid. I put so much time and care into each scent I create, and will only release them to the world when I am 100% happy with them. Sometimes they can take me years of work. So it's kind of like asking which of your children you like best.
Perhaps I can counter with an answer for which scents I have been blown away by the world's reaction to? I remember thinking Sweetie Aoud would be a very particular taste, but people - especially men - went crazy for it. Sometimes a scent can surprise you with how it captures an audience, but I really don't create things either for a mass-market audience, or a very very niche audience of a small handful. I simply create what I want to create. Rx
@@rojadove4680 thx, good answer 👍🏾
@@QQ-ms1oe Sorry my friend. The question is a little vague and I thought it was more generalised! All the best!
Roja can I get your personal e-mail where I can send you a message? Have a really important request!
He won't reply, he doesn't care
Will you please give me 1 million dollars so I can start my own fragrance line . Thank you in advance
Why do you simulate to be the perfumer?? if everybody knows you are only a creative director? .. is part of your plan for selling more?
Because he's a pretentious old fraud
I am both... I am the Managing Director of the brand, and essentially head up all the creative aspects, and as such, I also create all the scents.
Such a shame your fragrances are completely overpriced, I wouldnt mind trying some of them but there's no justification for the pretentious prices, I mean that roja haute lux is £2500!!!!!! You obviously swapped your passion for art to the passion for money, ridiculous price for a bottle of liquid
