I have just returned from London and tried the Alexandria II Anniversary at Harrods. It is a fragrance that transports you, blending the old with the new with mastery. Imagine a smoky and woody aroma with fresh touches of green apple and lavender, and that elegance of the rose. It is complex, with lavender, rose, and spices that envelop you. The heart is a deep blend of oud and amber, but what surprised me most was how it softens at the end with vanilla and sandalwood. It feels like a journey, from history to the present, all in a single scent. And that bottle with gold details, pure elegance!

🇮🇹 This is not love 🇮🇹 This anniversary version was conceived in Mexico while Christian Carbonell walked among the pyramids. A perfume with reminiscences of the original Alexandria. However, in my opinion, this anniversary version is very similar to the Alexandria II, though it feels a bit more polished and the oud doesn’t have that “rough” texture (nothing negative or positive about this). It’s just a description. There are really few differences, but the most noticeable is that in the dry down, a slightly sharp, sweaty animalic tone lingers that doesn’t overwhelm the composition and is perfect because there is a balance. There are perfumes like Jungle Jezebel or Oudh Infini (discontinued, by the way) where the use of civet is… excessive. In Alexandria X (Anniversary), it’s a moderate animalic tone that contrasts and makes this perfume a rougher version of Alexandria II. After 2-3 hours, the civet fades to leave a slightly softer Alexandria II. Masculine, good versatility performance, though somewhat restricted. €580 for 100 ml is a very high price for what it offers. I would have liked to see it at €400 for 50 ml. In life, you won’t finish a 100 ml bottle of this. Compared to other Alexandria versions like Imperiale, Orientale, and A III, it has its place and is different, but comparing it directly against A II feels a bit redundant. Good perfume, though with few changes, very expensive for what it offers. I still stick with A II and my great favourite, Orientale.
It is not the Amore. This anniversary edition was born in Mexico while Christian Carbonell walked among the pyramids. It smells like the original Alexandria, but in my view, it is closer to the II, though more polished and without that rough oud texture (neither good nor bad). The big difference is that animalic, sweaty, and sharp base that doesn’t overwhelm the blend and balances it. Unlike perfumes like Jungle Jezebel or Oudh Infini, where the civet is excessive, here it is moderate and gives a rougher touch to the II. After 2-3 hours, the civet fades and leaves a softer II. It is masculine, versatile but limited. €580 for 100 ml is an abusive price; I would have liked €400 for 50 ml, because you won’t finish a bottle like this. Compared to Imperiale, Orientale, or A III, it has its place, but against the II it feels redundant. Good perfume, few changes, and very expensive. I stick with the II and my great favourite, Orientale.
A delightful fragrance, a jewel in perfumery for me, my favourite of the Alexandrias and of my collection until today; it shares the same DNA as its siblings but feels more elegant and sophisticated. Those oud and wood notes blend perfectly with the rose and lavender, with a slight animalic and vanilla touch. Excellent longevity and performance. For me, a 10/10.

Excellent perfume. Until now, my favourite in the saga was Alexandria II, but after years in perfumery and getting to know oud, the Anniversary has dethroned it. Basically, it’s the base of the II with a more prominent oud at the start, gradually fading until the original essence remains. As Eduardo said in the MSJ, it’s the logical evolution and he’s right. The II’s magic opening is lost, but we gain depth, longevity, and projection. The II is still good, lasting around 7-8 hours, but this Anniversary lasts over 12 hours on skin and up to 24 on clothes. If you like oud or have experience, it’s a masterpiece.
The most incompatible with my DNA: I tried it at a tasting and everyone was shocked by how it smelled on my skin, literally very faecal.
Excellent perfume. Until now, my favourite in the saga was the Alexandria II, but after several years in perfumery and getting to know oud better, the Anniversary has become my favourite, dethroning the original. Basically, if you know the II, you take the same base and add a more prominent oud from the start, in the style of Orientale, and gradually lower it until the original base of the II remains. Eduardo in the MSJ commented that it feels like the next step, an evolution of the AII, and he is very right. The magic of the AII opening is lost, but we gain depth, longevity, and projection. It is a delicate matter, but the AII has lost performance over the years; before it lasted 7-8 hours, now not so much. This Anniversary lasts over 12 hours on skin and I have smelled it lasting over 24 hours on clothes without exaggeration. In short, if you like oud or have experience, the Anniversary will seem like a masterpiece to you.
The most incompatible perfume with my DNA. They took it to a tasting and everyone was surprised by how badly it smelled on my skin, literally very faecal.
