Scents of eras: how perfume reflects the spirit of the times
Every era has its own scent. Not literally, but in how it felt: what it wanted, what it feared, what...
Excellent by Al-Jazeera Perfumes is a unisex fragrance released in 2015 in Eau de Parfum concentration.
The fragrance is part of the Luxury Collection and reveals the brand's modern take on luxurious oriental perfumery, where expressive floral accents meet soft gourmand and woody nuances.
The perfume house Al-Jazeera Perfumes originates from Doha, Qatar, and has been creating compositions inspired by the region's rich culture and its appreciation for exquisite scents since 2010.
Excellent captures this aesthetic beautifully: it smells distinctive, rich and well-structured while remaining versatile enough for different styles and moods.
The impression created by Excellent is built on a contrast between a fresh fruity-green opening, a rich white-floral heart and a warm, slightly sweet woody base.
Thanks to this combination, the composition does not revolve around a single note: its mood gradually shifts, leaving behind a dense and distinctive impression.
The fragrance belongs to the oriental and floral families, while its character also features fruity, gourmand, green, white-floral and woody facets.
This makes Excellent an intriguing choice for those who enjoy expressive compositions with a strong presence and a multilayered scent profile.
According to the available fragrance data, Excellent has very strong sillage.
It will appeal to those who prefer a fragrance that is noticeable in the air and creates a rich scented cloud around the wearer.
When applying it, take the composition's intensity into account and adjust the amount to the season, setting and your personal sensitivity to scents.
Exact recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing are not provided, so it is best to start with a small amount and add more gradually if needed.
Excellent can be especially impressive in cool weather, for evening outings and special occasions, while in hot weather it calls for a more restrained application.
Excellent was created for women and men who enjoy noticeable white-floral fragrances with fruity freshness, vanilla softness and a dry woody accent.
This is neither an intimate nor a barely perceptible perfume, but a confident composition for those who want to highlight their individuality and leave a distinctive trail.
Among fragrances that may interest fans of a similar style, it is worth considering Givenchy L'Interdit, as well as Amouage Ubar and Prada La Femme Intense.
They do not exactly replicate Excellent, but may appeal thanks to their combination of white flowers, rich projection and elegant depth.
No information about the perfumer who created Excellent is available, so it is more accurate to assess the composition through its olfactory profile and the brand's positioning.
Information about other concentrations of this fragrance is also unavailable, so Excellent should be regarded as a standalone Eau de Parfum release.
Overall, Excellent by Al-Jazeera Perfumes is a rich unisex fragrance with very strong sillage, a fruity-green opening, a lush white-floral heart and a warm woody-vanilla base.
It will suit those looking for an impressive fragrance from the Luxury Collection with an oriental mood and a distinctive contemporary presentation.
