“The Gulf Collection is a series of scents which are lovingly dedicated to the individual personalities and characteristics of countries across the Gulf – a region with a long tradition of holding perfumery very dear to its heart. For thousands of years, the Sultanate of Oman has been celebrated for producing the world’s finest Frankincense. The most revered of all Frankincense, the warm, balsamic characteristic of this incomparable material forms the heart of this dedication to the kingdom from which it grows. Precious Aoud, Sandalwood and Saffron mingle around it to bring a further richness of deep and exotic warmth, whilst an unfurling note of Rose de Mai lends a sweet and elegant background for Frankincense to take centre-stage.” - ROJA DOVE.
The ancient realm of Oman - the home of the finest quality Frankincense - is brought into olfactive technicolour through a composition which puts this ingredient to centre-stage. An enduring, exotic collection of base notes brings the warmth of Sandalwood and Aoud to the fore, swirling around the Frankincense to create an authentic homage to this mystical land. Meanwhile, unusual notes of Papyrus and Carrot Seed in the deep and sensual base are counterpointed by a juicy burst of Grapefruit, Orange and Raspberry.
