Pierre de Velay No. 47

by Roja Dove

Roja Dove Pierre de Velay No. 47 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Roja Dove. Pierre de Velay No. 47 opens with Clary Sage, Bergamot, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Violet, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Hawthorn, and dries down to a base of Orris, Castoreum, Civet, and Violet Leaf. Roja Dove's Pierre de Velay No. 47 carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one is pure Roja decadence. No. 47 is a complex, animalic Chypré that many reviewers compare to other Roja heavyweights like Great Britain and Musk Aoud. It's a challenging, polarising scent that demands attention with its sheer quality and beast-mode performance.

About

No. 47 opens with a sharp, vibrant burst of bergamot and lemon, quickly softened by an invigorating clary sage. The heart settles into a sophisticated floral blend of violet, jasmine, and ylang-ylang with a touch of hawthorn, creating a smooth, almost soapy elegance. The true magic unfolds in the animalic, woody base, where castoreum and civet intertwine with earthy oakmoss, smoky birch, and a rich tapestry of woods, amber, and spice, creating a profound and luxurious depth.
