Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The World According to Arthur EDP
An opulent, incense-draped vanilla that radiates warmth and mystery without being brash. A plush, enveloping statement for cold nights and formal occasions, it is both modern and regal in its depth.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Alexandria Signature EDP
Alexandria UK's own house signature, not a dupe of any single designer scent. A bright Sicilian lemon and blood orange opening melts into creamy sandalwood and benzoin, settling on vanilla and tonka. Pleasant and easy-wearing, but the budget formulation trades depth for a flatter, quicker-fading gourmand than pricier citrus-vanilla references.

Season and Occasion Fit

The World According to Arthur

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Rich vanilla, incense, and amber make this best in cooler months, where its warmth and fullness shine. The sweetness and smokiness can be too enveloping for hot weather but are perfect for crisp fall and winter air.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its luxurious, resinous character and moderate projection suit formal events and elegant evenings. The sweet-smoky depth can be romantic but may overwhelm close office or athletic settings.
