Roja Parfums Reckless is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Roja Dove. Reckless opens with Citrus, Bergamot, Tarragon, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of White Amaryllis, Rose, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Roja Parfums's Reckless carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Reckless by Roja Dove is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it perfume with a split personality. Some find it a sweet, elegant floral, while others are repulsed by an unexpected savoury funk. Testing before buying is an absolute must.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its complex, warm character and the potential for a powerful sillage make it a strong contender for date nights and formal events, though perhaps a bit much for a conservative office. The 'reckless' sweetness makes it suitable for some casual wear, but not for sport.

About

Reckless opens with a bright, aldehydic sparkle, quickly joined by a complex floral bouquet of jasmine and ylang-ylang, given a fruity lift by peach. As it settles, a powdery warmth emerges from orris and tonka bean, underpinned by an earthy, slightly animalic blend of vetiver, castoreum, and leather. Clove and cinnamon add a subtle, refined spice.
