Xerjoff - Alexandria Orientale – Eau de Parfum

Xerjoff Oud Stars ALEXANDRIA ORIENTALE Eau de Parfum

A fragrance like a poem of light, smoke, and luxury

Originally created exclusively for the United Arab Emirates, ALEXANDRIA ORIENTALE now unveils its majestic aura across the globe. As part of Xerjoff’s renowned Oud Stars Collection, this Eau de Parfum is a heartfelt homage to the art of oriental perfumery – and to one of the world’s most captivating ingredients: oud.

Green apple, basil, and incense – an opening like an oriental sunrise

The composition opens with a vibrant accord of green apple, aromatic basil, and exquisite Omani incense. This contrast-rich beginning bridges freshness and smoke, radiance and depth. What follows is not a fleeting impression, but a journey: Italian iris brings a powdery elegance to the heart, while Bulgarian rose and coriander enhance its floral warmth and aromatic complexity.

A base of sandalwood, tobacco, and Malaysian oud

The base holds everything together: Indian sandalwood, sweet vanilla from Madagascar, smoky tobacco leaves, golden amber, and sensual musk merge with rare Malaysian oud to create a velvety-warm resonance. Here, ALEXANDRIA ORIENTALE becomes an enveloping presence – majestic, multi-layered, and long-lasting. This scent doesn’t rest on the surface – it wraps around you like an invisible robe, luxurious and profound.

Oud Stars – a collection like a literary legacy

The Oud Stars Collection by Xerjoff is inspired by the legendary travel writings of Ibn Battuta, the great scholar and explorer of the 14th century. His accounts of Arab and North African cities – from Alexandria to Zafar – provide the poetic backdrop to this fragrance series. Names like Mamluk, Gao, or Ceylon are not just geographical references, but olfactory anchor points for a culture where scent and story are inseparably entwined.

The heart of the collection – pure oud

At its core lies oud, also known as agarwood. This dark, resinous wood is produced by the Aquilaria tree in response to a rare fungal infection – a natural process that takes years, sometimes decades. The resulting resin is among the most precious in perfumery. In this collection, all oud is sustainably sourced from Laos, Cambodia, and Borneo.

With ALEXANDRIA ORIENTALE, you wear more than a scent – you wear a legacy. A quiet declaration of refinement, depth, and timeless elegance. Discover this olfactory treasure now at scent amor – your destination for artisanal luxury perfumes.
