Roja Parfums Semi-Bespoke No. 22 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Roja Dove. Semi-Bespoke No. 22 opens with Bergamot, Petitgrain, Clary Sage, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Magnolia, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Orris. Roja Parfums's Semi-Bespoke No. 22 carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a seriously divisive Roja Dove, loved by many for its unique fresh, soapy elegance, but some find it a bit too chemical or like an air freshener. It's a high-quality fougere that commands attention, for better or worse.

About

Opens with an ultra-fresh, sparkling blast of bergamot and bitter green petitgrain, sharpened by aldehydes and herbal clary sage. There's a rapid transition to a core of green balsamic galbanum, earthy oakmoss, and powdery orris, with a subtle floral hum of rose and jasmine. The drydown settles into clean musk and creamy sandalwood, evoking the pristine scent of luxury soap.
