{"product_id":"xerjoff-alexandria-ii-parfum-50ml","title":"Alexandria II Parfum 50ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eOud and rose are the two most expensive ideas in perfumery and Xerjoff Alexandria II Parfum 50ml puts them together without diluting either, which is why it has the reputation it has.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe opening is deceptively gentle. Apple is crisp and bright, lavender clean and herbal, cinnamon warm and dry, and rosewood adds a soft, slightly spicy smoothness beneath them. It smells rounded and welcoming for the first few minutes and gives very little away. Then the heart opens up. Bulgarian rose is the full, deep, slightly jammy version of the flower rather than a dewy one, with lily of the valley adding a green freshness beside it and cedarwood a dry frame around both. The rose is unmistakably the centre of the fragrance from this point on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is where the money is. Laotian oud is dark, resinous and faintly animal, the material that gives the dry down its weight and its slightly medicinal edge. Sandalwood is creamy, amber warm and resinous, vanilla sweet and soft, and musk holds the lot together. The rose never disappears; it simply sits inside all of that warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a parfum concentration in a 50ml bottle and it should be treated accordingly. One spray is a full dose, two is plenty for an evening, and it will last through the night and into the next morning on clothing. Cold weather and formal occasions suit it, and it reads as unisex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eXerjoff is an Italian house formally established in Turin in 2007 by Sergio Momo and Dominique Salvo, growing out of an earlier creation of Momo's. It is known for elaborate bottles, costly raw materials and for releasing its work in collections rather than as single launches.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Xerjoff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53298800132423,"sku":"ENG50032252","price":296.1,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/eng50032252.jpg?v=1770573756","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/xerjoff-alexandria-ii-parfum-50ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
