The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019 as a Harrods exclusive by the Italian luxury brand Xerjoff, Alexandria III is a complex Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Chris Maurice. The composition opens with lavender and palisander rosewood, creating an immediate warmth that transitions into the heart of Bulgarian rose and lily-of-the-valley. At its core lies a rich blend of oud from Thailand and Laos, cedar, sandalwood, and amber, all underscored by vanilla and warm spices like cinnamon. This fragrance is a journey through layers of warmth and complexity, where each note builds upon the last to create a deeply enveloping experience.
Apply Alexandria III in light layers to allow each note to unfold gradually. The warm spicy heart notes linger close to skin, so a few sprays on pulse points will keep it within your personal space throughout the day.
