Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Alexandria II EDP
A regal oud-amber composition, Alexandria II is a benchmark for opulent, brooding woods with an aristocratic signature. Fearlessly rich and enveloping, it commands attention with refinement and depth.

Our Verdict - Jimmy Choo EDT
Prepare for a spirited debate. Jimmy Choo EDT is a charming, fresh-fruity-floral with a fleeting presence, dividing opinion on whether its beauty outweighs its poor longevity. It's a love-it-or-leave-it affair, but almost everyone agrees it's a breath of fresh air compared to its EDP sibling.

Season and Occasion Fit

Alexandria II

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Alexandria II's dense oud, sandalwood, resin and spice profile is ideal for cooler fall and winter months, while its floral and subtle fruit notes allow it to transition into spring. It is too rich and opulent for most summer weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

The commanding trail, luxurious oud and spicy-amber base make it a standout for formal events or romantic evenings. Its richness can be overwhelming in casual or office settings and is unsuitable for sport.

Jimmy Choo

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Given its very light projection and short longevity, this is an excellent choice for the office, as it's unlikely to offend anyone. It's also suitable for casual wear and can be reapplied for short-lived date appeal, though its fleeting nature makes it less ideal for formal events or intense sports.
