Xerjoff Alexandria II Anniversary Parfum
Description
Alexandria II Anniversary is Xerjoff's 2024 tribute to Alexandria II, the celebrated fragrance from the house's Oud Stars collection. Composed by perfumer Chris Maurice as a Parfum-strength reimagining, it opens with lavender, Bulgarian rose, cumin, and cardamom, moves into a dense, resinous heart built around real Borneo oud alongside civet, amber, orris, cypriol, and clary sage, and settles into a base of Bourbon vanilla, musk, and Australian sandalwood. This is a genuinely oud-driven amber, rare agarwood at its core, wrapped in rose and warm spice, and finished with a soft, powdery sandalwood-vanilla dry-down.
