Roja Parfums Semi-Bespoke No. 23 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Roja Dove. Semi-Bespoke No. 23 opens with Oregano, Bergamot, Thyme, and Basil, settles into a heart of Rose and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Pine. Roja Parfums's Semi-Bespoke No. 23 carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, masculine woody-amber that's complex and intriguing. It's a proper beast for longevity, though a fair few reckon the price tag's a bit steep for the ride. Still, if you're into labdanum-heavy scents, this one's a winner.

Its potent projection and beastly longevity make it less suitable for an office, where it could overwhelm. The warm, sensual amber profile, combined with its strong performance, makes it perfect for date nights and formal events, especially in cooler weather.

About

Opens with a punchy green and herbal burst of oregano, thyme, and basil, brightened by bergamot, before quickly morphing into a thick, chewy frankincense. Labdanum and creamy sandalwood deepen the amber core, whilst a warm spiciness from clove and vanilla emerges. The drydown unveils rich woods like pine, cypriol, and patchouli, completing a deeply resinous and earthy amber experience.
