Roja Dove Burlington is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Roja Dove. Burlington opens with Bitter Orange, Grapefruit, Mandarin, and Lime, settles into a heart of Musk, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Cedar, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Roja Dove's Burlington carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This is a real love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Some reckon it's a masterpiece of modern citrus, pure class in a bottle, while others find the cumin note absolutely vile, smelling of burnt rubber or body odour. It's a divisive one, so sample before you splurge on that hefty price tag.

About

Opens with a zesty, tart explosion of grapefruit, lime, and mandarin, brightened by a cool mint. This invigorating citrus then develops into a warm, spicy heart with a hint of ginger and cinnamon, underpinned by a complex base of rum, tobacco, and grounding woods like cedar and oakmoss. A touch of ambergris and musk lends it depth and a subtle, 'dirty' edge.
