Rogue Perfumery Derviche is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Manuel Cross. Derviche opens with Bergamot and Saffron, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Tobacco, and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Rogue Perfumery's Derviche carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Derviche is a polarising beast, a true love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a battle between syrupy tobacco-vanilla and challenging indolic, civet-heavy notes. Definitely not a blind buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong sillage and challenging animalic opening, this is best reserved for intimate dates or formal evening events. Its intensity makes it unsuitable for the office or casual daytime wear where it might overpower.

About

Derviche opens with a vibrant, almost medicinal bergamot that quickly gives way to a complex, musky tobacco heart. Indolic jasmine and labdanum create a rich, animalic warmth, intertwined with sweet vanilla and saffron. The dry down settles into a luxurious blend of creamy sandalwood, musk, and a subtle leather undertone, maintaining a persistent dark amber glow.
