Alexandria Fragrances Seven Seas is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2018. Seven Seas opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Rose and Mint, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Lavender. Alexandria Fragrances's Seven Seas carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Divisive. Some love this as a standalone scent; others trash it as a poor imitation. If you've never smelled Viking before, you might just find a year-round, confident signature. If you're after a dupe, look elsewhere.

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.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

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

A fresh and peppery opening of bergamot, lemon, and pink pepper gives way to a clean heart of mint and rose. The drydown settles into a classic barbershop blend of lavender, vetiver, sandalwood, and patchouli, creating a spicy yet smooth finish that works well in most seasons.
