Founded in the distant 4th century BC by Alexander the Great, the city of Alexandria in Egypt continues to thrive, inspiring awe and wonder among tourists fortunate enough to witness its majestic beauty. In 2012, the virtuoso perfumer Chris Morris, inspired by the city's captivating atmosphere, acquired a priceless quarter-century-aged oud oil from a small shop. Using this as a base, he created a unique collection of perfumery masterpieces with a mystical Oriental character and distinctive Italian chic, the Oud Star for the Xerjoff brand. Among these creations is the luxurious unisex fragrance Alexandria II.
The scent opens with passionate cinnamon, soothing lavender, dry rosewood, and crisp apple. At its heart reigns the piney essence of white cedar, the cool fragrance of lily-of-the-valley, and the tenderness of silky rose. The melody concludes with a rich accord of oud, salty amber, sweet vanilla, powdery musk, and restrained sandalwood.
