Roja Dove Taif Aoud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Roja Dove. Taif Aoud opens with Bergamot and Aldehydes, and settles into a heart of Redcurrant Leaf, Taif Rose, Jasmine, and Geranium. Roja Dove's Taif Aoud carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

This Taif Rose and Oud fragrance is a divisive beast: some rave about its opulent, radiant floral freshness, while others recoil from its 'skanky' aldehydic opening and find the drydown a disappointment. Expect a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with a hefty price tag.

About

Taif Aoud bursts open with sparkling aldehydes and a whisper of bergamot, quickly unfurling into the star attraction: a rich, elegant Taif rose. This central bloom is supported by a floral bouquet of jasmine, geranium, and ylang-ylang, with a spicy kick from clove and a hint of green from redcurrant leaf. The base settles into a smooth, slightly smoky oud with amber warmth, creating a sophisticated and luxurious aroma.
