Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Reckless Pour Homme Parfum
Reckless Pour Homme is a Roja Dove through and through: complex, luxurious, and undeniably masculine. While it splits opinion on its originality and value, everyone agrees on its quality. A refined, spicy-woody scent for the modern gent who appreciates the classics.

Our Verdict - United Arab Emirates Extrait
This one is a classic love-it-or-hate-it Roja, a bold rose-oud with an herbal, spicy edge. Some find it a masterpiece of East-meets-West perfumery, rich and opulent. Others reckon it's a 'musty old lady' scent, overpriced and overhyped. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
