Roja Parfums Fortnum & Mason The Perfume is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Roja Dove. Fortnum & Mason The Perfume opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Amyris, Musk, Amber, and Sandalwood. Roja Parfums's Fortnum & Mason The Perfume carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a bold, complex scent that manages to be both dirty and sweet. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, with many finding it an intriguing masterpiece but some not impressed by the repetition of Roja's signature oud-like accords.

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.

About

Opens with a refreshing burst of lemon and bergamot, leading quickly to a heart of juicy peach and rich florals like rose and jasmine. The real magic happens as it settles into a deep, animalic dry down of castoreum and labdanum, giving a smoky, leathery depth perfectly balanced by warm amber, saffron, and vanilla. It's an intricate blend where individual notes melt into an unforgettable aroma.
