This Thursday 13th December, Roja will be launching his latest Roja Parfums creation to the press – Fetish Parfum – and revealing what it is that makes you “Succumb To Your Desires” every time you smell it.

In anticipation, Roja commented,

“Nothing is darker than leather in all its guises. I urge you to beware, as once you have entered there is no escape. I have created a perfume that, once under its spell, there is no return. See for yourselves if you can escape its magic”.

Fetish Parfum will be made available for sale from February 2013 in the Harrods Black Hall (London), the Roja Dove Haute Parfumerie in Harrods and at the Lausanne Palace, the Roja Parfums Boutiques in Moscow, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and from the Roja Parfums website (www.rojaparfums.com)

Roja was asked by Harrods to design a crown for their Jubilee shop window display. He of course obliged and here is his take on Queen Elizabeth’s crown using raw ingredients, flowers, and a touch of his famous creative flair. It has been on display since Monday and will be there for the entirety of the Jubilee celebrations. I’m sure you agree that it is worth a visit.

Roja recently met with Carlos Huber – the man behind the fabulous Arquiste perfumes – at the Roja Dove Haute Parfumerie. The perfumes have been created by Roja’s good friend, world-renowed perfumer Rodrigo Flores-Roux, and will soon be the newest brand to be stocked at the Roja Dove Haute Parfums in Harrods.

A number of Brazil’s top fashion bloggers visited Harrods to meet Roja and have the Haute Parfumerie Experience. Roja introduced the bloggers to a number of exquisite fragrances in the sumptuous surroundings of his Haute Parfumerie in Urban Retreat, Harrods, and everyone left the day full of fragrant knowledge.

Every month the beauty departments of Harrods run an incentive for the three staff members who put through the highest value transaction through the tills and last month, the two top spots went to members of the Roja Dove team.

Andrew Wright, Manager of Roja Parfums in the Harrods Black Hall Perfumery, and Marcel Van Der Merwe, Assistant Manager of the Roja Dove Haute Parfumerie in Urban Retreat, were awarded first and second place for the month of July.

Congratulations to both Andrew and Marcel for this recognition of your hard work!
