Please note: due to high demand fragrances bought at the moment may be sent in pouches rather than boxes.

I always looked at it like this: It is flattering to be cloned/copied and nothing to be worried about overall. People who appreciate the vision, the craft, the art of the people behind the fragrance, will always buy the original no matter what. If people genuinely can't afford it, then they will buy the cloned...or they are people who just don't care as long as it smells good.

I recently smelled a sample of Dirty Orange. Impressed, so I did a YT search. It's hard to believe this one is not better known. Please consider revisiting this fragrance in a future review. Your reviews of Alexandria Fragrances are perhaps the most reliable on KZbin.

I received both from Alexandria Fragrances, Dirty Orange came in the white box and Dapper 1959 in a nice blue pouch. Dirty orange is very fresh and I get orange as well as lemon with it. Can't yet work out what is behind that, but it does have fairly long longevity. Dapper 1959 is very spicy, but not too over powering with a slight talc subtleness coming through. I like both, but Dapper is more an Autumn/ Winter fragrance, whereas Dirty Orange is more Spring/Summer.

Thanks Dan for the info. Just ordered Dirty Orange (55ml) and Citron del mar (55ml) for 78 GPB (after 25% discount) + 13 GPB shipping. A very good price for this quality Creed clones. I don't have access to Parfums Vintage so Alexandria Fragrances is a great choice to have and I heard of them only thanks to you :)

I don't find all Alexandria fragrances close to originals, but they did make some good ones. 25% off is a good deal I think, especially if you are buying more than 1 bottle to save on shipping. DUA was doing 30% off yesterday, wow!!! I think they will make Gravitas clone. Cloning is a sign of success!!!

I just bought a bunch of Alexandria fragrances during the Black Friday specials. It's been about a year since I ordered from them. When I first tried this house, I was blown away by the quality and strength of Alexandria scents, but I am terribly disappointed in these recent purchases. It really seems to me like they have watered down their fragrances a lot in the past year or two. Some of the fragrances I just bought are hardly noticeable at all after 3 sprays and all but disappear within 15-25 minutes. Such a drastic change from my last experience with this house. I was singing their praises for more than a year and now I just don't know what to think. It's not just my skin, either. I can hardly smell them on tester strips. Edit: it was those particular fragrances not working for me at all. Maybe they're meant to be soft? I just got more of my old favorites and they're as strong as ever. Still love this house and their quality. I retract my disappointment. Just have to find the right scents. Fantastic fragrance house.

@@Jason-Moon nah they’re not meant to be soft. It’s Just some of their fragrances aren’t that good of quality. Now there are some that they hit out the park. Egyptian king last on me all day and so did African magic. Bitter soft was incredible. Tuscan King last on me as well. But there are some others that didn’t last at all. So it’s hit or miss with them.

While I appreciate the artistic effort put into certain fragrances, I simply can't justify paying the astronomical sum being asked for those fragrances when there is a 95% clone available. With soooooo many great fragrances out there for a great price, if I'm going to pay a high price for something, it had better check all of the boxes. Long lasting, complement getting, good presentation, AND,......... unique.

Oh man my weakness for the Alexandria reviews. Get better than ave performance w Dapper; fall, winter - incl evening for me. Like the talc, powderiness, blend. Image for powder was too much. Dirty Orange is on my keep buying backups list - elegant summer dumb reach. I don't think they will clone Gravitas, at least for a long while. Alexandria sat on Office for a while - Jeremy's been discounting it by half, hyping next release.

Mr. Smelly I’ve watched a couple of your Alexandria videos and you always say something is almost identical. The episode with Haney you were saying something was very, very close but there were subtle hints that would give the original away. I always laugh because you still haven’t figured out the secret to the sauce. Alexandria fragrances ARE identical. They buy the original and put it in a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer. The GCMS tells them not only the ingredients but how much of each with precision. It’s the same machine that sends people to jail for poisoning people. So, yeah, they’re not close they’re spot on. Maybe they might not use the same expensive ingredients that are in some fragrances. But they’re substituted for the industry standard ingredients used by designer houses. Anyway cheers
