Xerjoff Alexandria II is a luxurious and sophisticated fragrance from the “Oud Stars” collection, created by the talented perfumer Chris Maurice in 2012. It is an oriental woody scent with a rich blend of high-quality ingredients that offer a unique and opulent experience.

The fragrance opens with top notes of rosewood, lavender, cinnamon, and apple, providing a fresh yet spicy introduction. As the scent develops, the heart reveals Bulgarian rose, lily-of-the-valley, and cedarwood, adding an elegant floral aspect balanced by a woody depth. The base is where the true richness lies, featuring Laotian oud, sandalwood, musk, vanilla, and amber, creating a complex, warm, and slightly sweet foundation. The oud in Alexandria II is prominent yet refined, adding an earthy quality without becoming overpowering.

Alexandria II is renowned for its outstanding longevity and sillage, lasting 12+ hours on the skin with a strong but sophisticated projection. The fragrance is best suited for cooler weather, making it ideal for fall and winter or for special evening occasions, where its rich and royal character truly shines. While the price can be steep, many consider it worth the investment for the quality of ingredients and craftsmanship involved.

This fragrance is versatile and works well for both men and women. It is described as sophisticated and timeless, with a balance of freshness and warmth that evolves beautifully on the skin. Whether for a formal setting or when wanting to feel special, Alexandria II provides an unforgettable olfactory experience that captures the opulence and history of the ancient city it’s named after.
