Nüwa

Roja Dove Nüwa is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Nüwa opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Osmanthus, Rose, Immortelle, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Orris, Labdanum, Pepper, and Vetiver. Roja Dove's Nüwa carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

Divisive and expensive, with a strong cumin note that either captivates or repels. Nüwa is a high-class rose chypre from Roja that sparks intense debate over its merits, especially concerning its price tag and distinct 'old version' spiciness.

The strong, spicy, and opulent nature of Nüwa makes it less suitable for casual or office wear, where it might be too overwhelming. However, its rich character and sophisticated depth are perfect for formal events and romantic dates, where its intensity can truly shine.

About

Nüwa opens with a bright burst of bergamot and lemon before settling into a rich, complex heart of rose and osmanthus, intertwined with the unique, slightly sweet and spicy facets of immortelle, ylang-ylang, and redcurrant leaf. It dries down to a profound, earthy base of oakmoss, patchouli, and vetiver, spiced by cumin and clove, with a touch of ambergris adding a luxurious warmth.
