Oedipus Complex?
When I ordered another fragrance from Xerjoff, I was allowed to choose some samples that were included in the package. Of course, Alexandria II had to be part of the selection, as it is considered one of the best unisex fragrances according to the community on Parfumo.
Upon the first spray, a childhood association immediately came to mind that I couldn't initially place. The scent felt familiar, possibly because it has oriental nuances and my parents are from that region. After a few days, I finally realized what it reminded me of. It reminded me of my mother, who apparently wore a fragrance in the nineties that is surprisingly close to Alexandria II.
Do I want to smell like my mother? Not really. Do I want my girlfriend or my next date to smell like her? Also not, as I have long left the Oedipal phase behind.
Who is the fragrance suitable for? In my opinion, for women over 30 who present themselves confidently and possess a certain level of maturity. Clearly, the scent is not for girly girls or young boys/Talahons.
Perhaps this is why these Talahons want to penetrate their counterpart's mother during a dispute, because they like to spray themselves for free with Alexandria II at Breuninger, and thus they also get associations of their mother... But who really knows. I haven't completed a sociology degree to form a well-founded opinion on that.
