Roja Parfums Elysium Pour Homme
No civilization has ever failed to imagine its own paradise. Some reserved it for the innocent and noble, but all made room for those of strength and honor. They called it by different names, and one of the first was Elysium – a paradise meant for heroes. Master perfumer Roja Dove created his new men’s fragrance with the idea of a scent that takes you straight to Elysium – your personal paradise.
Consistent in combining the classic with the modern, Roja Dove opened the doors to his fragrant paradise with a distinctly fresh citrus complex, which soon gives way to the sensual floral-fruity heart of the fragrance, opening into intriguing spicy notes. The finish rests on a soft, velvety base enriched with grey amber, leather, and musk. Only the best is good enough... is the motto Roja Dove adhered to when selecting ingredients for Elysium.
The bottle follows the typical lines of Roja Parfums, but is crafted from blue glass with a gold overlay, hand-polished three times – a process typically used for working with precious crystal.
