Roja Parfums Champagne at BG Review: 150-Bottle Exclusive
A 150-bottle Bergdorf Goodman exclusive from Roja Dove: tropical honey amber.
In this review
Roja Parfums has unveiled Champagne at BG, a new unisex parfum exclusive to Bergdorf Goodman. Released in 2025, this ultra-limited edition comprises just 150 bottles, making it one of the most elusive releases from the house. Created by Roja Dove, Champagne at BG promises a luxurious blend of tropical fruits, honey, and a champagne accord, resting on a base of patchouli, vanilla, agarwood (oud), and amber.
Early reviews on Fragrantica and Parfumo paint a picture of a sweet, fruity gourmand with a honeyed heart and a woody-amber drydown. The overall rating stands at 4.39/5 from 23 votes on Fragrantica, and 8.2/10 from 24 votes on Parfumo. However, the fragrance has sparked debate: some wearers praise the champagne note as authentic and star-like, while others find it barely perceptible. What emerges is a composition that reads primarily as tropical-fruity honey amber rather than a sparkling champagne scent.
In this review, we break down the notes, accords, performance, and value of Champagne at BG. We’ll also explore who it suits, when to wear it, and how it compares to similar fragrances. Given its extreme exclusivity and unpublished price, this is a fragrance that demands careful consideration before seeking out a bottle.
Accords
Notes Pyramid
Scent Journey
The first 0–30 minutes deliver a burst of tropical fruits and aldehydes. The champagne accord is supposed to add sparkle, but early reports are mixed—some detect a realistic effervescence, others get a faint impression at best. The overall effect is sweet, fruity, and slightly creamy.
At 1–2 hours, honey emerges to wrap the tropical fruits in a rich, syrupy warmth. The composition becomes more gourmand, with a creamy texture that suggests vanilla even before the base arrives. The champagne note, if present, is now subtle.
After 4+ hours, the base unfolds with patchouli, vanilla, oud, and amber. Patchouli adds an earthy, slightly camphorous depth, while vanilla and amber provide sweetness and warmth. Oud lends a woody, slightly smoky facet that keeps the gourmand from becoming cloying. The drydown is long-lasting and intimate, staying close to the skin.
Performance Dashboard
Long-lasting once settled; ~7–8 hours typical (7.5/10 from early wearers).
Low-moderate; intimate rather than room-filling, despite the sweet-fruity opening. No numeric rating available.
Moderate to weak; several wearers report it stays close to the skin (7.3/10).
