Xerjoff Oud Stars Alexandria Orientale Edp

Crafted initially as an exclusive olfactory gem for the United Arab Emirates, Alexandria Orientale emerges as a true Arabic treasure, an homage to the captivating and intricate allure of oud—the most revered and enigmatic ingredient in perfumery. Drenched in oriental character, this distinctive fragrance unfurls its layers with a symphony of notes that reflect the opulence and heritage of the Middle East. At the forefront, top notes tantalize the senses with the crisp freshness of green apple, the aromatic richness of basil, and the smoky allure of incense sourced from Oman. This opening is a harmonious prelude, setting the stage for the olfactory journey that follows. Alexandria Orientale, like a rare and precious tapestry, reveals its lush heart notes. Here, the fragrance takes an enchanting turn, introducing Italian orris, Bulgarian rose, and coriander. This combination creates a bouquet of floral elegance, with the orris lending its powdery and sophisticated touch, the rose adding a romantic nuance, and the coriander infusing a spicy and aromatic complexity. The heart is a testament to the fragrance's ability to weave together diverse elements into a harmonious composition. As the fragrance evolves, it gracefully descends into a warm and earthy base, evoking the very essence of the Arabian landscape. Indian sandalwood imparts a creamy and woody foundation, while tobacco leaves contribute a hint of smokiness, creating an evocative contrast. The pièce de résistance, oud, emerges in the base notes, enveloping the fragrance with its rich and resonant presence. The oud, derived from the Aquilaria tree, is the crown jewel of this composition, exuding an unparalleled depth and complexity that defines the fragrance's character. Alexandria Orientale is more than a perfume; it is a sensory voyage that captures the spirit of the Middle East. With every note, it pays homage to the cultural richness and olfactory heritage of the region. This fragrance is a celebration of complexity, rarity, and the time-honored tradition of perfumery, making it a true Arabic treasure that invites wearers to immerse themselves in the allure of oud and the mystique of Alexandria Orientale.
