Roja Parfums Pierre de Velay No. 16 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Roja Dove. Pierre de Velay No. 16 opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Rhubarb, Rose, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Cedar, Iris, and Vanilla. Roja Parfums's Pierre de Velay No. 16 carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a stunner, mates. Forget boring citrus - it's a fruity floral masterpiece that's pure addictive joy. It's a shame it's discontinued, because it nails that sweet spot between playful and sophisticated like no other. Get your hands on it if you can.

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.

About

Pierre de Velay No. 16 hits you with a fleeting burst of bright citrus, quickly giving way to a heart of juicy peach and tart rhubarb. This playful fruitiness is swirled into a creamy bouquet of lily of the valley, jasmine, and delicate violet, with a touch of ylang-ylang adding a soft, sensual depth. The base grounds it with powdery orris and a whisper of vanilla, creating a smooth, captivating aroma without any cloying sweetness.
