Alexandria Orientale

Bright green apple and peppery basil clash with leather's sharp tang, while incense smoke curls through the opening. The heart settles into a lush Bulgarian rose, grounded by the pencil-shaving dryness of Virginia cedar and orris root's powdery iris quality, with coriander adding a subtle spice. Amber and musk form a creamy base as oud and sandalwood emerge—resinous, woody, almost medicinal—while tobacco leaf brings a warm, slightly charred earthiness. Madagascar vanilla threads through, softening the wood and resin into something almost creamy at the skin's warmth, until only musk, oud, and the lingering ghost of tobacco settle into a dark, resinous finish.
