Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Masterpiece lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Alexandria II.

HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Alexandria II's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $89 per 100ml it costs 88% less than Alexandria II — the 4th cheapest of 7 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength HK Perfumes publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

What it is chasing: palisander rosewood, lavender and apple up top, rose, cedar and lily of the valley in the middle, agarwood (oud), sandalwood and amber underneath — the shape of Xerjoff Alexandria II.

Top

  • palisander rosewood
  • lavender
  • apple

Heart

  • rose
  • cedar
  • lily of the valley

Base

  • agarwood (oud)
  • sandalwood
  • amber
For the one who wears heritage like a crown, weaving warm amber, oud and spice into an aura of unhurried opulence.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
