Roja Dove Sweetie Aoud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Roja Dove. Sweetie Aoud opens with Bergamot and Artemisia, settles into a heart of Cistus Incanus and Rose, and dries down to a base of Gourmand. Roja Dove's Sweetie Aoud carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Seriously divisive. Some reviews claim "masterpiece" and laud its unique gourmand oud profile, others deride it as "pure trash" for its burnt, strange aroma. Don't be fooled by the 'sweetie' name - this is a complex, often heavy oud fragrance that's anything but a safe blind buy.

About

Sweetie Aoud opens with an aromatic kick of artemisia and bergamot, leading into a gourmand heart that aims for fine pastry with a hint of cistus and rose. The base is an immersive woody oud, spiced warmly and softened by amber. It’s a journey from potential sweet indulgence to a deep, resonant, and occasionally challenging, musky woodiness.
