I'd almost say it would be a safe blind-buy for anyone who loves their citrus fragrances to have a soft amber vanilla base and for the spice notes to stay creamy and warm rather than steering the composition towards gourmand or an astringent blast. I think the wood notes, the black pepper and the elemi are the clues that there's a slightly balsamic feel which tempers both the citrus and the spices. It doesn't go green and herbal, nor does it fall into the 'fresh aquatics' category. It whispers 'gourmand' but then shrugs and says 'you misheard me'. I think the top and mid of this works BEAUTIFULLY with the sweeter notes in the base. It's unusual and very well balanced so would make an all-seasons, truly versatile citrus. It stands right on the edge of several categories but gets yanked back by the collar before jumping over each category's cliff :D. Thanks for reviewing Alexandre J-- the house gets very little attention on RUclips. Speculating on why that may be would be is a worthy topic to discuss in a video. Some houses are ignored almost wholesale in the RUclips niche fragrance reviewing 'community'.
Your enthusiasm is contagious. This is a must try, will be seeking a decant or sample for sure. And you are.looking sharp! Great tie/jacket/pocket square combo. Great review, mahalos!
I have been eyeing this one for quite sometime...had an opportunity to purchase it on deep-discount a few months back but, instead, opted for a bottle of Alexandre.J Zafeer Oud Vanille. Also, Alexandre J. Oscent Black is an amazing fragrance...very underrated IMO. Top-notch review.
Hey Jim! same thing here - been eyeing this for about 1 year and finally pulled the trigger a month ago! Glad I did. I do agree with you - this house needs more exploring! Oscent Black is great as well - I got it after you posted about the sale :) a while back. I need to try Zafeer Oud Vanille and am eyeing their leather black one too. Thanks for watching Jim!!
I finally ordered a bottle last night and I can't wait to put my mitts on this one for the Fall season. I also ordered a bunch of other Alexandre.J perfumes...just wish more people would review this house. Cheers!
I have tried this once and was really impressed, will try it out one more time to decide for a full bottle at a good price of course. Have you tried Mandarine Sultan from this house? Would like to hear your take on it.
I really like this one! I have been eyeing it for about year and never really pulled the trigger. So glad I did now :) and it was good timing as it was well discounted. Thanks for watching!!
+King B 83 oh yes I got it at Notino a while back but they are sold out right now. You can opt to be notified and I would say wait for the discount if you can! I have seen it go on sale few times at half the price currently listed on Notino.
Notino's had Alexander J's Black Musc for practically nothing . I've never sampled it , so I took a pass. I just looked on Notino's ,and unfortunately , Le Royal is gone. I'll have to get some samples from this house. Le Royal was selling for $112. Thank you for this review.
Definitely worth waiting for the sale - I got mine for $60! I see they have samples too so that might be something to throw in your cart next time you are getting something :) . I have never tried Black Musc either but am now curious about the house. I'll probably be getting samples of most of them to decide which ones are my favorites. Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for recommending that one. I am definitely more curious about the rest of the this house and your description fits my taste :) . Thanks for watching!
+MrOz this fragrance similar to Royal Mayfair from Creed with woody touch you fell has 70% of Royal Mayfair but more sweet less citruses and less white flowers amazing fragrance

MrOz if you don't mind could you share where you purchased your bottle? I looked on notino and beauty encounter with no luck.

totally agree with you but I think unisex fragrance and going more to women side than man side
perfect fragrance
