Roja Parfums is a British luxury house founded by perfumer Roja Dove, known for creating sophisticated fragrances with meticulous attention to raw material quality and composition. The Semi-Bespoke collection represents the house's approach to personalization, offering distinctive compositions within their signature framework.

Semi-Bespoke No. 16 opens with a bright green and fruity character, leading with bergamot, galbanum, and mandarin orange alongside green grass and violet leaf that give it a fresh, slightly herbaceous quality. The heart develops into a complex floral arrangement of rose, orange blossom, and lily of the valley with clove spice and peach softening the florals, while patchouli adds earthy depth. The base anchors the composition with ambergris, musk, and castoreum for animalic warmth, rounded out by oakmoss and vanilla for structure and longevity.

This chypre works well for anyone seeking a green-tinged floral with genuine substance and complexity rather than sweetness. It performs equally well on men and women, making it a strong choice for those who reject gendered fragrance conventions. The composition suits cooler seasons and contemplative moods, with enough green and spice to feel grounded. Semi-Bespoke No. 16 shares olfactory DNA with The Mystic, The Cipher, and The Homesteader.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified

Bergamot
Bergamot
A sun-ripened Italian citrus with a brightness that goes beyond lemon, simultaneously tart, floral, and slightly spicy. It's the defining note of Earl Grey tea and the backbone of countless fresh colognes. Perfumers love it as an opener because it lifts the entire composition without overpowering what follows.
Galbanum
Galbanum
One of perfumery's oldest raw materials, a bitter, intensely green resin with a cut-grass, slightly medicinal quality. It's the note that gives vintage green chypres their sharp, naturalistic edge. Galbanum alone is almost unpleasantly aggressive, but in a composition it adds a vivid green freshness that nothing else can match.
Green Grass
Green Grass
Mandarin Orange
Mandarin Orange
Rhubarb
Rhubarb
Tart, crisp, and slightly green, rhubarb has a fresh, sour fruitiness that is more refreshing than sweet. It adds a clean, astringent quality to fragrances, like citrus, but fruitier and more unusual. Used in contemporary fresh and aromatic compositions to add a distinctive, slightly challenging freshness.
Violet Leaf
Violet Leaf
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Cloves
Cloves
Lily Of The Valley
Lily Of The Valley
Crisp, green, and dewy, this spring flower smells like rain on cool grass with a clean, soap-like clarity. It's one of perfumery's most requested scents despite being nearly impossible to extract naturally, so it's almost always recreated synthetically. The result is fresh, tender, and timelessly elegant.
Orange Blossom
Orange Blossom
Sweeter and more honeyed than neroli (both come from the same tree), orange blossom is a floral note with a warm, almost edible quality. It floats between citrus and floral families, adding richness without weight. A signature note of classic Mediterranean and Middle Eastern perfumery.
Patchouli
Patchouli
Dense, earthy, and darkly sweet, patchouli is the scent of damp soil and dried herbs with an almost chocolatey richness. It polarizes people because in high concentrations it's overwhelming, but as a supporting note it adds depth and longevity that almost nothing else can match. The backbone of countless oriental and chypre fragrances.
Peach
Peach
Ripe, juicy, and velvety, peach has a warm, slightly creamy sweetness that feels lush rather than childish in the right context. It adds a fruity sensuality to floral and oriental fragrances, and its slightly fuzzy quality can even play into tactile, skin-like accords. A note that feels like high summer.
Rose
Rose
The queen of floral notes and the most-used ingredient in fine perfumery. Real rose is simultaneously velvety, honeyed, and slightly spicy, nothing like the synthetic candy version. Depending on the variety used, it can anchor a composition or drift through it like a ghost, adding warmth without dominating.
Violet
Violet
Sweet, powdery, and faintly green, violet sits between floral and earthy in a way that feels distinctly old-world glamorous. The leaf and the flower smell quite different: the flower is sugary and delicate, while violet leaf is fresh and slightly vegetal. Together they create a note that feels both nostalgic and current.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Ambergris
Ambergris
One of perfumery's most storied materials, a waxy substance produced by sperm whales with a uniquely salty, sweet, earthy quality. Real ambergris is nearly unobtainable; most perfumers use synthetic alternatives. It adds a marine warmth and incredible fixative quality, making fragrances smell more 'alive' and skin-like.
Castoreum
Castoreum
One of perfumery's most storied animalic materials, castoreum comes from the scent glands of the North American beaver. It has a complex profile: leathery, slightly smoky, and sweet, with a warm, skin-like quality. Natural castoreum is rarely used today (ethical concerns); synthetic versions recreate its distinctive warmth in classic leather fragrances.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Oakmoss
Oakmoss
The defining ingredient of classic chypre perfumery, damp, forest-floor earthy with a faint bitterness and incredible complexity. Real oakmoss is now heavily restricted by IFRA regulations, which is why vintage chypres smell so different from modern ones. When present, it creates a raw, outdoorsy anchor that no synthetic fully replicates.
Vanilla
Vanilla
Warm, sweet, and universally appealing, vanilla is to fragrance what salt is to cooking. Real vanilla is complex and slightly smoky, though most perfumery vanilla is synthetic and reads as clean, sweet, and creamy. It slows the evaporation of other notes and is the reason certain fragrances feel like a second skin.
