Behind the Creations of the Amouage Café Jabal Desserts with Michelin-Starred Chef Roger Van Damme

In February 2025, ahead of the opening of the fifth season of the Amouage Café, a project aiming to push the boundaries of culinary creations to unprecedented levels was born in the mountains of Oman. Chef Roger Van Damme, a Belgian Michelin-starred chef, crafted six desserts that intertwined Amouage creations with carefully chosen ingredients, and also captured the essence of the environment in which they would be served: the majestic mountains of Jabal Akhdar. Six cakes, shaped after specific peaks of the Jabal Akhdar Mountains, had been thoughtfully paired with a curated set of ingredients to evoke the olfactive experience of the perfumes. Each cake is a creation brought to life through a light and airy ganache with a nucleus of spices, cremeux and compote. Guidance, Interlude Man, Overture Woman, Vanilla Barka, and Outlands. Listen to the creator himself and discover the Jabal desserts by the sunset light at the Amouage Café in Alila Jabal Akhdar until April 20th. Happy birthday Roger!
