Chypré Extraordinaire

by Roja Dove

Roja Dove Chypré Extraordinaire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Roja Dove. Chypré Extraordinaire opens with Bergamot and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Redcurrant Leaf, Heliotrope, Rose, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Musk. Roja Dove's Chypré Extraordinaire carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Roja Dove's Chypré Extraordinaire is an utterly gorgeous, complex chypre that divides opinion. Some laud it as a masterpiece, while others are left cold by its hefty price tag and perceived lack of originality or performance for the cost. Worth a shot if you're not paying the full whack.

About

It opens with a bright, aldehydic pop, quickly transitioning into a rich floral heart where rose, violet, and peach mingle with creamy ylang-ylang and plush plum. The dry-down reveals a sophisticated, mossy base, underscored by civet, leather, and patchouli, with hints of sweet vanilla and amber providing a luxurious depth that develops beautifully over time. It's a journey through classic chypre territory with a modern, fruity twist.
