Alexandria II captures the essence of the city that has long been a crossroads of cultures, history and trade. Just like Alexandria — a vibrant mosaic of tradition and innovation — this fragrance blends timeless elegance with a fresh, lively spirit. It opens with intriguing notes of apple intertwined with lavender and rosewood, unfolding into a classic resinous heart of cedarwood, lily of the valley and Bulgarian rose. Evoking the timeless spirit of the thousand-year-old city, Alexandria II concludes with warm, woody base notes of amber, sandalwood and precious Laotian oud.

Longevity and layering

Did you know that fragrance longevity can be greatly increased by beginning your routine with clean, moisturized skin? We recommend starting with a shower gel or soap that is either neutrally scented or in the same scent family as your perfume. Then, add a moisturizer and/or body oil and allow it to soak in. Finally, add your fragrance on top. This added moisture barrier will hold the scent molecules for more time, allowing the fragrance to last longer. Think of it as a primer for perfume!
You can also layer scented products (including lotion, soap, body oil, perfume oil, and other alcohol-based perfumes) to add depth, intensity, or a variety of other facets to your final fragrance. We suggest beginning with similar scents (such as two different citrus or vanilla fragrances) and testing those layering combinations, then branching out to more experimental pairings. Feeling stuck? Shared notes, even in very different fragrances, can help bring the final scent together. The sky's the limit - have fun!
