Nostalgia

by Hany Hafez

Alexandria Fragrances Nostalgia is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Hany Hafez. Nostalgia settles into a heart of Oud, Rose, Vanilla, and Violet. Alexandria Fragrances's Nostalgia carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

This MFK Oud Satin Mood dupe is a bit hit-or-miss, with some experiencing an almost identical scent, while others find the quality lacking. Expect monstrous performance and a bold, sweet rose-oud experience, but be mindful of the potential for inconsistencies.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, coupled with a dense rose-oud and vanilla profile, make it less suitable for office or casual wear. It truly shines in formal evening settings or for a special date, where its powerful projection can be appreciated without overwhelming a small space.

About

Nostalgia opens with a potent, sometimes boozy, rose and a vibrant burst of candied violet. The heart quickly introduces a prominent vanilla sweetness, intertwining with the floral notes. A subtle, non-animalic oud provides a woody backbone, settling into a resinous, amber-like dry down with facets of incense and benzoin. It's an undeniably rich and enveloping aroma.
