2017 · unisex

Alexandria Fragrances has built a reputation for uncompromising niche fragrances that prioritize distinctive character over mass appeal. The house focuses on bold, unconventional compositions that challenge conventional fragrance categories.

Strawberry Gone Soft opens with bright raspberry and thyme, establishing a fruity-aromatic character with subtle spice and amber warmth. The heart reveals olibanum and night blooming jasmine, adding an incense-tinged florality that softens the fruit's initial sharpness. The base shifts dramatically into leather and suede, transforming what begins as a fruity composition into something distinctly animalic and sensual. The overall arc moves from fresh and aromatic to increasingly tactile and textured, with the leather providing structural support throughout.

This fragrance works best for those seeking non-linear scents that evolve significantly from opening to dry-down. The leather-fruit contrast suits cooler months and evening wear, though the thyme opening keeps it wearable year-round for those comfortable with unconventional pairings. It shares DNA with The Seducer, The Reverie, and The Hedonist.

Fragrance Notescommunity verified
Top · 0–30 min
Raspberry
Raspberry
Bright, tart, and slightly jammy, raspberry adds a vivid fruity pop that is harder and more energetic than peach or apricot. It's a signature note of modern fruity florals and adds an accessible sweetness that broadens a fragrance's appeal. Best used with restraint unless you're deliberately going for big and fun.
Thyme
Thyme
Herbal, slightly medicinal, and earthy with a warm, honey-like underpinning that sets it apart from greener herbs like basil. Thyme adds a French countryside quality, rugged but refined. It's used to add character and specificity to herbal-woody compositions that might otherwise feel generic.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Olibanum
Olibanum
Night Blooming Jasmine
Night Blooming Jasmine
Intensifying its fragrance after dusk when temperatures drop, night blooming jasmine has an especially heady, almost intoxicating quality that daytime jasmines rarely match. In perfumery it evokes warm evenings and garden walls, with a rich, slightly animalic sweetness. Often used in compositions designed to project and linger through the night.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Leather
Leather
One of perfumery's most complex accords, smoky, animalic, and slightly woody, evoking tanned hide, polished saddles, or fine gloves depending on the recipe. Leather adds sophistication and edge simultaneously, and is deeply associated with masculinity in Western perfumery (though the best leather fragrances transcend gender entirely).
Suede
Suede
Soft, slightly powdery, and skin-warm, suede accord in perfumery captures the scent of fine-grained leather without the raw animal quality of heavy leather notes. It's simultaneously woody and musky, creating a second-skin warmth that feels intimate and tactile. The note that makes certain fragrances feel like cashmere.
