This is a fresh and light scent thats good for all occasions. It opens with a green grassy scent. Followed by cardamom which is one of my favorite notes. The sandalwood scent is really beautiful even though I don’t think it’s real sandalwood.

It’s easy to wear and suitable for all occasions. I wear Santal 33 to work and for informal occasions.

This is a citrusy spectacular fragrance where I got many compliments wearing it both at work and during leisure. I’ve moved on from this but the memories are still tied strongly to this scent. The top notes were the ones I would pick up the most while the rest just died into oblivion. It was the opening that smelled great and I had to keep applying it to maintain longevity. In the end, I’m into new fragrances now but still keep a bottle of this for my son.

This is a beautiful Parfum that opens up with citrus. At least that’s what I get. It pierces through the other notes with lavender by its side. I get hints of vanilla and tonka bean. It performs very well on its own but it could be combined with other Xerjoff fragrances. I waited a long wait for this to arrive maybe that’s why I’m quite partial to it.

I’m a huge fan of Xerjoff and was brought on by Naxos. Now Xerjoff - Oud Stars Fars is a little closer in scent profile to Alexandria II but with a citrus kick and cinnamon bite. It shares that vanilla lavender scent with Naxos but the Oud is comparable to Alexandria II. But I’ve found that I prefer Fars over Alexandria II. I only have 50ml of this beauty and will make every spray count.

One has to admire the beautiful vessel that it comes in first. Now on to the scent. The first notes I get are of strong cherries and bergamot. I love the hidden but ever-present spicy accord to it. It feels like a regal fragrance. Patchouli then makes a surprise appearance enhancing the first notes which still linger like the cherry notes I pick up. All in all it’s a beautiful must have Parfum.

I wanted to get my hands on Alexandria II as a way of complimenting my Naxos that I owned. It has a bitter opening by way of the cinnamon and lavender. The scent is very oriental. The heart of Lilly and cedarwood add backbone to the fragrance whilst the base of vanilla gives it a good finish. I layer this with Naxos during every wear. I love the interplay of the sweetness of the Naxos and bitterness of the Alexandria II.

Alexandria II is usually the scent I’m applying as a precursor layer before applying Naxos. But when I wear Alexandria II I enjoy the the woody oudy opening. In the heart I enjoy the Oud and the Amber. At the base there is a musky smell that just takes men away to a beautiful place. Awesome scent from Xerjoff.
