Alexandrite Siwa, launched in 2022, is positioned as a unisex fragrance, rooted in the wood and floral families. Offered in eau de parfum concentration.
Country of origin — Egypt, and that already says something about the quality. Alexandrite Siwa — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The scent of Alexandrite is shaped as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Siwa is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum sets the right density and pace of development.
In a unified mixed pyramid the fragrance opens as a single chord with a architectural woody mood: Ambergris, Lavender, Oud, Rose, Rosewood, Sandalwood and Vanilla. Here 7 notes work as one coherent layer, creating lasting warm resonance that feels seamless.
The middle and base stages are felt as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
The gender direction is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Ambery, Green, Wood and Floral. It also reaches into Gourmet and Whiteflower. At family level the fragrance belongs to Floral and Wood.
Taken together Alexandrite sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. These are the fragrances best experienced through real development.
