Alexandria II Anniversary

Notes

Top notes

• Cumin Warm, earthy and animalic spice, like skin after a long day.
• Rose Petals, honey and a touch of wine; can lean fresh and dewy or deep and jammy.
• Lavender Clean, herbal and slightly camphorous, with a soft floral sweetness.
• Cardamom Cool, aromatic and sweetly spicy, with a camphor and citrus lift.

Heart notes

• Civet Warm, intensely animal and musky, with an indolic floral edge that turns soft when diluted.
• Amber A warm, golden, resin-and-vanilla effect, soft, sweet and enveloping.
• Clary Sage Herbal, honeyed and faintly ambery, softer than common sage.
• Cypriol Earthy, smoky and woody-spicy root, like damp soil and incense.
• Iris Cool, buttery, powdery and slightly earthy, like lipstick and cold stone; taken from the root, not the flower.
• Mint Cool, sweet and clean, with an icy herbal sparkle.

Base notes

• Musk Soft, clean, skin-like warmth, from fresh laundry to warm skin.
• Vanilla Warm, creamy, sweet and slightly smoky, like a custard-soft cloud.
• Sandalwood Creamy, milky and softly sweet wood, smooth as polished timber.
