Roja Parfums Sultanate of Oman Parfum
Description
Sultanate of Oman is Roja Dove's tribute to Oman's frankincense heritage, part of the Gulf Collection and launched in 2016. Woods, spices and a genuine agarwood base meet the region's celebrated frankincense, reviewers single out the sandalwood as "one of the creamiest, most luxurious" in the line, anchored by what one review calls "an awesome foundational accord of resin and oud."
Scent Character

Translation: a heavily woody-resinous composition. The disclosed notes list genuine Agarwood (Oud) in the base and third-party reviews describe the fragrance as oud-anchored, yet on skin the wood/resin complex (frankincense, guaiac wood, gurjan balsam, sandalwood) reads as the dominant character, with real oud running through it as a structural note rather than the loudest one.
