51 Essence de Parfum is a floral, woody, sweet scent created for Women in 2016 by perfumer Roja Dove.
Review
This scent is soft, playful, and romantic. Bright citruses, and a note of sweet Raspberry, sparkle atop a delicate floral bouquet. Vanilla in the base especially helps the Ylang Ylang stand above the rest. This is a scent that can be worn for work or play, and can be dressed up or down for any occasion. It can be worn in any season, but will work best in the Spring and Summer months. It has been compared to Ylang In Gold from Martine Micallef. Try this sample and let us know what you think!
Inspiration
51 Essence de Parfum is a playful homage to The Burlington Arcade in London, where the Roja Parfums flagship store resides at Number 51. It epitomizes the luxury and prestige of this iconic location.
Notes
Refreshing notes of Bergamot, Lemon, and Mandarin energize the senses. An elegant bouquet of flowers makes up the heart of this scent with Lily of the Valley, Rose, Gardenia, Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Tuberose, Lily, and Ylang Ylang. A tart note of Raspberry, blended gently with Vanilla and Benzoin, keeps the Ylang Ylang thriving above everything. A woody blend of Patchouli, Casmir Wood, and Sandalwood add a soft longevity while spicy hints of Clove, Cinnamon, and Aniseed add a boost to the flowers.
