Xerjoff Oud Stars Alexandria II Parfum Unisex 50ml

Xerjoff Oud Stars Al Khatt Perfume, 50 ml, is a luxurious and controversial niche fragrance, launched in 2012 and signed by perfumer Chris Maurice. This fragrance belongs to the oriental floral family and is inspired by the ancient manuscript writings of Ibn Battuta's travels. The fragrance represents the bold and beautiful contrast between the sweetness of white flowers and the purity of aged natural oud.

Olfactory Pyramid of the Fragrance

The fragrance relies on strong sweet floral notes blended with a warm and resinous base:

• Top Notes: It opens with a bright and captivating blend of Sambac jasmine (Italian jasmine) and bergamot.
• Heart Notes: It pulsates with a soft and velvety touch of cashmeran wood, which gives the fragrance a warm depth.
• Base Notes: A heavy and sweet oriental base consisting of Laotian oud, Bangladeshi oud, benzoin, warm vanilla, and oakmoss.

Expected Performance and Characteristics

• Scent Profile: The fragrance is known for its intense animalic and floral character, where the pungent jasmine intertwines with aged oud in an attention-grabbing manner. Vanilla and benzoin give it a warm, stable, and balsamic sweet touch at the end.
• Longevity and Sillage: The fragrance has nuclear and super-powerful performance; due to its high concentration and pure oud oils, it lasts for extended periods exceeding 24 hours on clothes with massive and noticeable sillage.
