Alexandria II XerJoff 2012 Parfum

That's how I would describe the fragrance if someone asked me about it.

At first, the fragrance smells very slightly of oud, a little stinky for beginners' noses.

But since I'm already used to a lot by now, it's absolutely nothing "gross" anymore.

As soon as the oud accord disappears, a sweet, comforting fragrance slowly fades in.
-It reminded me of grandma's baked apple when I first sniffed it.

As soon as the fragrance reaches the drydown, it completely hits you.

I have rarely experienced such a great interplay, everything is so finely tuned to each other that it is very difficult to smell individual fragrance components from the scent.

To give you a better idea:
The fragrance feels pleasantly warm throughout and leaves behind a dreamy oriental scent trail.
A light sweetness works in the background, enveloped by a woody base.

An absolute must for every oriental beginner!
