Alexandria Fragrances Greek Horse is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2017. Greek Horse opens with Bergamot, Heliotrope, and Cumin, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Lavender, and Almond, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla.

A creamy, almond dream that punches above its weight. Mostly a crowd-pleaser, delivering luxury vibes without the designer price tag, though a few find it a bit too much.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and rich, sweet profile make it a standout for dates and cooler evening events. While too strong for many office environments, its sophisticated character allows for formal wear, and it's a bit too alluring for casual daytime settings.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a unique, slightly spicy kick of cumin and bergamot, softened quickly by powdery heliotrope. The heart unfolds into a rich, creamy almond and sweet vanilla, underpinned by elegant jasmine and a hint of lavender. It settles into a warm, inviting base of smooth sandalwood and golden amber, making for a sophisticated and seductive wear.
