The review
Alexander II scores 7.1 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Alexandria II.
Montagne Parfums 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.
At $45 it costs 88% less than Alexandria II.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Montagne Parfums 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
Xerjoff Alexandria II is palisander rosewood, lavender and apple at first, rose, cedar and lily of the valley at its heart and agarwood (oud), sandalwood and amber at the end. Montagne Parfums set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
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.
