Alexandria III
lavender · palisander rosewood · cinnamon
Alexandria III opens on lavender and cinnamon, then Bulgarian rose and lily-of-the-valley take over at the heart. The base, rich in Laotian oud and musk, wraps itself in amber and vanilla. Wear it in winter or autumn, when the evenings draw in and its trail becomes a close, personal presence.
