Alexandria Fragrances Interplay is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2017. Interplay opens with Jasmine and Saffron, settles into a heart of Ambergris, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Oakmoss, and Sage. Alexandria Fragrances's Interplay carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This one's a proper divisive scent - people either rave about its similarity to BR540 or slate it as a cheap knock-off smelling of 'fecal' notes and 'mothballs'. Definitely try before you buy, it seems your nose will either love it or hate it.

About

Interplay opens with a sweet, slightly indolic jasmine and the distinct, leathery spice of saffron. The heart unfolds into a clean, mineral ambergris, a note that often divides opinion with its oceanic, sometimes even medical facets. The dry down settles into an earthy, mossy blend of oakmoss, grounding the fragrance with a green, aromatic touch of sage and the comforting dryness of cedar. Expect a unique, amber-floral journey with definite woody undertones.
