A Decadent Gourmand-Oud Treat Wrapped in Pastry, Spice, and Resinous Luxury
Released in 2015, Sweetie Aoud by Roja Dove belongs to the Tutti Frutti Aoud collection. It stands out as a bold, sweet gourmand-oud hybrid.

Performance & Scent Profile
-
Opening: A sweet, patisserie-like rush. Bergamot gives a bright freshness, while Artemisia adds a slightly herbal bitterness that cuts through the sugar. Many describe it as “walking into a bakery” with warm pastry aromas. Fragrantica+2Twisted Lily+2
-
Heart: Rich gourmand (the “bakery” accord) blended with rose and cistus incense. This combination gives a creamy, warm sweetness that’s indulgent but also layered. Twisted Lily+1
-
Dry Down: Woody, resinous, smoky with oud, spices (cardamom and cumin), and labdanum. The gourmand-sweetness softens, and the base comes forward with deeper woods, incense, and a touch of oud. It becomes more mature, less overtly sweet. Twisted Lily+1
