Britannia

by Roja Dove

Roja Dove Britannia is a Parfum launched in 2016, created by Roja Dove. Britannia opens with Citron, Bergamot, Mandarin, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, Peach, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Orris, Cacao Pod, Vetiver, and Sandalwood. Roja Dove's Britannia carries an Acquired verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This one's a divisive grand dame - some find it an opulent, modern classic, while others reckon it's a bit too 'old-fashioned granny' for its eye-watering price tag. Expect regal powdery florals, a hint of fruit, and a subtle cocoa whisper.

About

Britannia opens with a sophisticated blend of bright citruses, quickly settling into a heart of rich, powdery florals. Heliotrope and violet create a velvety texture, underscored by a juicy peach. The journey culminates in a warm, complex base where subtle cacao and vanilla meet earthy orris, creamy sandalwood, and a touch of spicy clove and cinnamon, all rounded out by ambergris.
