Xerjoff is an Italian niche house founded by Gian Maria Giammetti and known for maximalist compositions built on rare, expensive materials. The brand favors complexity and depth over restraint, creating fragrances designed for serious collectors rather than casual wearers.

Alexandria II Anniversary opens with an aromatic-spicy blend of Bulgarian rose, cardamom, cumin, and lavender, establishing a fresh, slightly dusty character. The heart deepens considerably with oud, civet, and clary sage joining orris and cypriol oil to create an earthy, animalic middle that's both herbaceous and warm. Australian sandalwood and musk anchor the base, while vanilla adds subtle sweetness, preventing the composition from turning austere. The overall effect is a powdery, oud-forward fragrance with a distinctly aromatic edge and leather-like character from the civet and orris.

This is a fragrance for experienced fragrance enthusiasts who appreciate unconventional compositions with textural depth. It works well in cooler months when its herbal-spicy opening and complex heart can develop properly. Alexandria II Anniversary suits someone drawn to artisanal, ingredient-focused perfumery rather than crowd-pleasing sweetness. Consider The Romantic, The Homesteader, and The Heirloom for similar fragrance profiles.

Bulgarian Rose
Bulgarian Rose
The most prized rose in perfumery, grown in the Valley of Roses in Kazanlak, Bulgaria. Rosa damascena cultivated here produces an oil of extraordinary depth: honeyed, velvety, with faint hints of tea, honey, and spice. The standard against which all other rose materials are measured.
Cardamom
Cardamom
Aromatic, warm, and slightly eucalyptus-like with a spiced green freshness that is entirely its own. Cardamom is one of the most elegant spice notes in perfumery, exotic without being heavy, warm without being sweet. It appears frequently in Middle Eastern-inspired fragrances and modern masculine compositions.
Cumin
Cumin
Warm, earthy, and slightly animalic, cumin is one of perfumery's most controversial spice notes because it has a distinctly body-heat quality. In small amounts it adds authentic warmth and depth; in larger doses it becomes sweaty and challenging. Used masterfully in masculine orientals and in Middle Eastern-inspired fragrances.
Lavender
Lavender
One of perfumery's most essential and beloved notes, clean, herbal, and slightly sweet with a calming, familiar quality that works in almost any context. Lavender is simultaneously the most versatile and the most human of ingredients: it appears in barbershop colognes, romantic florals, and sophisticated orientals alike. A note that simply works.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Amber
Amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
Civet
Civet
An animalic note with a raw, musky, slightly fecal quality that might sound unappealing but adds extraordinary depth and sensuality in small amounts. Natural civet is no longer used (it was obtained unethically); modern substitutes are kinder but similarly provocative. A hallmark of classic Chanel and Guerlain fragrances.
Clary Sage
Clary Sage
Dry, slightly fruity, and intensely herbal, clary sage has a warm, tea-like quality with faintly floral and nutty facets. It's the more sophisticated sibling of regular sage, used in Eau Sauvage and countless classic masculines for its clean, Mediterranean character. Simultaneously natural and refined.
Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha
Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha
Mint
Mint
Cool, sharp, and immediately recognizable, mint adds a clean, almost medicinal freshness that cuts through heavier notes. Spearmint is sweeter; peppermint is sharper. Either way, mint gives fragrances a lively, brisk quality that reads as alert and outdoorsy. Best used as an accent rather than a lead to avoid smelling like toothpaste.
Orris
Orris
Oud
Oud
The most prized and expensive raw material in perfumery, a resinous wood produced by agarwood trees infected with a specific mold. Real oud is animalic, smoky, leathery, and sometimes medicinal, with enormous lasting power. It anchors the great Middle Eastern fragrances and has become the defining luxury note of contemporary perfumery.
Wormwood
Wormwood
Base · 3–12 hrs
Australian Sandalwood
Australian Sandalwood
Drier and more austere than Indian Mysore sandalwood, Australian sandalwood has a clean, milky woodiness without as much of the creamy sweetness. It's more sustainable than its Indian counterpart and used increasingly as a responsible alternative. Still deeply skin-like and warm, just with a slightly more transparent character.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Vanilla
Vanilla
Warm, sweet, and universally appealing, vanilla is to fragrance what salt is to cooking. Real vanilla is complex and slightly smoky, though most perfumery vanilla is synthetic and reads as clean, sweet, and creamy. It slows the evaporation of other notes and is the reason certain fragrances feel like a second skin.
