Love at the 3rd sniff
...when I was able to get hold of the first bottling for €5 per ML, my expectations were immeasurably high!
After the first spray, I was honestly a little disappointed and put the bottle away immediately... after a little citrus came the cowshed! Without end! I'm supposed to wear this and get compliments, I thought to myself! 2 days later, the second attempt: "oooh, still animalistic high thousand. Where are the chords? A little more cinnamon this time... I have the feeling I'm standing in a sterile doctor's surgery. But where does it come from? Fortunately, I got all my answers to this question on my third attempt. Because all good things come in threes...
The top notes present a dynamic blend of citrus and aromatic lavender, reminiscent of the bustling streets and markets of Alexandria. The heart notes of jasmine, cinnamon and rose geranium add a sensual depth.
The true essence of "Alexandria II" unfolds in the base. This is where the mature Cambodian oud, the warm nuances of cedarwood and the sweet temptation of lily of the valley merge into a beguiling finale.
The depth and complexity of this fragrance make it a timeless classic that enchants both men and women. Whether on a special occasion or in everyday life, "Alexandria II" gives every wearer a regal aura and makes them feel like a ruler of their own world.
Overall, "Alexandria II" by Xerjoff is a fragrance that intoxicates the senses and inspires the imagination. With its rich fragrance composition and captivating story, it is a must-have for all lovers of luxury fragrances and an essential addition to any perfume collection. Welcome to Alexandria - the most beautiful siege in history, captured in a bottle.
Nevertheless, in my opinion, there are much better alternatives for the money that are "easier" to wear and understand. The fragrance has won me over, but it won't make it into my top 10.

When I was on Sylt with my wife last year and stood in the Schuback perfumery, I had countless fragrances under my nose.
One of them was "Oajan | Parfums de Marly" - its boozy, spicy and sweet DNA immediately fascinated me. In the end, however, I wanted...
