Roja Parfums Harrods Aoud is a Parfum launched in 2019, created by Roja Dove. Harrods Aoud opens with Citrus, Artemisia, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Rose, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Patchouli, and Frankincense. Roja Parfums's Harrods Aoud carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This isn't your typical heavy oud, so don't be fooled by the name. Harrods Aoud is a sophisticated, woody-spicy creation that leans more refined cedar and nuanced incense, sparking strong debate amongst oud enthusiasts. A masterful blend that proves divisive, but undeniably luxurious.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Despite its longevity, the limited projection makes it suitable for office wear, while its refined woody-spicy profile is excellent for formal events and dates. Given its opulence, it's less suited for casual or sporty settings.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a crisp, green sparkle of aldehydes and artemisia, freshened by a hint of citrus before a fleeting rose appears. The heart quickly transitions into a rich tapestry of warm spices and deep woods, dominated by cedar and earthy patchouli. As it settles, frankincense lends a balsamic, smoky warmth, creating a smooth, elegant dry down that’s more abstract 'aoud' than raw, animalic note.
