ROJA “ESPRESSO AOUD”
A Luxurious Gourmand Aoud Fragrance of Coffee, Warmth and Addiction
ESPRESSO AOUD by ROJA is an intense and addictive luxury fragrance that reimagines the iconic character of aoud through the rich sensuality of roasted coffee and creamy gourmand accords. Bold, warm and deeply sophisticated, this creation introduces a modern and indulgent interpretation of the legendary ROJA Aoud Collection.
ESPRESSO AOUD is built around the irresistible contrast between dark roasted coffee and the mysterious depth of aoud. Smooth yet powerful, comforting yet magnetic, the fragrance envelops the senses in a luxurious veil of warmth, texture and sensuality.
The opening is rich, aromatic and immediately captivating. Roasted coffee beans dominate the composition with dark roasted intensity, softened by caramelised nuts that create a creamy and velvety gourmand effect. Cinnamon and saffron introduce warm spice and refined richness, adding an opulent glow to the fragrance from the very first moment.
At the heart, floral and creamy nuances emerge with sophistication and depth. Orange blossom introduces luminous softness, while rose and violet add elegant floral texture. Pistachio nuts and creamy coconut milk enrich the composition with addictive smoothness, transforming the fragrance into a luxurious gourmand experience balanced perfectly between sweetness and sensuality.
The base reveals the true soul of ESPRESSO AOUD by ROJA. Precious aoud anchors the composition with deep woody intensity, while sandalwood softens the darker facets with creamy warmth. Tonka bean, vanilla and benzoin create a sensual amber-gourmand richness, while leather, patchouli and dry woods add complexity and refinement.
Cashmeran and musk leave behind a velvety skin-like trail, while cedarwood, cypriol oil, birchwood and moss reinforce the fragrance with smoky woody elegance and extraordinary longevity.
ESPRESSO AOUD by ROJA is a luxurious niche fragrance designed for those who appreciate powerful gourmand compositions with sophistication and depth. Rich, enveloping and unforgettable, it perfectly balances the comforting warmth of coffee with the mysterious sensuality of aoud.
This fragrance feels like an intense espresso enjoyed in a world of velvet woods, warm spices and glowing amber light — bold, elegant and irresistibly addictive.
THE HOUSE OF ROJA
ROJA is one of the world’s most prestigious luxury perfume houses, internationally recognised for exceptional craftsmanship, extraordinary raw materials and timeless olfactory artistry. Founded by renowned British perfumer Roja Dove, the House has become synonymous with refinement, sophistication and uncompromising quality.
Twenty-five years ago, Roja Dove discovered the rituals and mysteries surrounding aoud during his work in the Middle East. Fascinated by the extraordinary olfactory spectrum of this sacred ingredient, he immersed himself in understanding every nuance of aoud at a time when it was still largely unknown in Western perfumery.
Bringing this knowledge back to London, ROJA launched Aoud Parfum in 2011, becoming one of the first Western perfume houses to champion aoud on a global level. The fragrance became the best-selling perfume at Harrods and established ROJA as a true pioneer of luxury aoud perfumery.
Today, ROJA is recognised worldwide as one of the leading authorities on aoud — a reputation built on exceptional quality, profound expertise and deep respect for this legendary ingredient.
THE ART OF AOUD
Aoud is one of perfumery’s most complex and revered raw materials, known for its depth, richness and emotional power. Mastering aoud requires exceptional understanding and precision, which is why ROJA fragrances are celebrated for their sophisticated and refined approach to this sacred material.
With ESPRESSO AOUD, ROJA introduces a contemporary gourmand interpretation of aoud — blending roasted coffee, creamy nuts and warm woods into an indulgent and modern olfactory masterpiece.
