Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Timeless EDP
A beautifully blended modern take on a classic, masculine aromatic fougère. It's an effortlessly sophisticated scent with undeniable quality, though its eye-watering price tag for moderate longevity might leave some feeling short-changed.

Our Verdict - Beyond Time EDP
Beyond Time is Alexandria UK's take on Clive Christian's 150th Anniversary release Timeless, following its citrus-lavender-woody arc closely. The dupe's citrus top is brighter but shorter-lived than the original's slow-building 187-ingredient composition, and the vetiver-musk base wears flatter across the day.
