About This Perfume
Think rose and cedar, lavender powder, oud warmth: that is Xerjoff Alexandria II Extrait Oil. It opens with lavender, apple and sandalwood, moves into rose, cedar and lily-of-the-valley and settles on agarwood (oud), vanilla and amber.
This fragrance is best in fall and winter and is easy to wear day or night. Reach for it for casual days. Released in 2018.
Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something woody and warm for casual days.
- Sample first if: woody is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike lavender fragrances.
Around $633.

The Scendira catalogue lists 212 Xerjoff fragrances, with 118 currently in stock.

If you want Xerjoff at its most talked-about, start with Naxos (honeyed tobacco lavender, 2015), Alexandria II (oud rose lavender, 2018), and Homme Anniversary (creamy lemon leather, 2024).
