Reckless Pour Femme Essence De Parfum by Roja Dove presents a soft, gourmand floral with a crisp citrus opening centered on bergamot and mandarin orange. The scent evolves into a harmonious blend of white florals—jasmine, neroli, and rose—woven with warm vanilla, benzoin, and a subtle spicy hint of pink pepper and sandalwood. The overall impression is elegant, delicate, and delicately sweet—more a skin-scent than a projecting fragrance. It feels particularly well-suited to spring and summer, where its lightweight, refreshing character shines. While it closely echoes Love Don’t Be Shy by Kilian, it is often described as softer, less cloying, and more refined, with a gentle, powdery drydown that fades quickly. The fragrance performs best on clothing, where it lingers moderately, but on skin it tends to disappear within a few hours. Despite its high price point, the fragrance is praised for its smooth blending and floral elegance, though some users find it underwhelming and overly similar to other niche scents.
