Alexandria Fragrances Burj Khalifa is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2017. Burj Khalifa opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Lime, and settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Fig. Alexandria Fragrances's Burj Khalifa carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive clone of Roja's Amber Aoud, but when it hits right, it really hits. It's an oud-heavy scent that demands attention with its potent sillage and formidable longevity, not for the faint of heart or those seeking subtlety.

About

Burj Khalifa opens with a bright burst of citrus from bergamot, lemon, and lime, quickly followed by a rich, complex heart of jasmine, ylang-ylang, and a hint of fig. This floral sweetness then plunges into a deep, animalic, and incredibly woody base, dominated by oud and ambergris, rounded out by musky and subtly spicy undertones. Expect a powerful, luxurious blend that clings to the skin and projects boldly.
