Summer 1872

by Hany Hafez

Alexandria Fragrances Summer 1872 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Hany Hafez. Summer 1872 opens with Lavender, Peach, Pepper, and Pineapple, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Marigold, Clary Sage, and Cyclamen, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Patchouli, Musk, and Cedar. Alexandria Fragrances's Summer 1872 carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.

If longevity's your game, this is a solid choice. It's an invigorating blast of citrus and spice, but for some, the pepper might be a bit much. A divisive one, so sample first.

Its energetic, fresh spicy opening makes it versatile for casual and active wear. While it has a prominent projection, the citrus and aromatic nature keeps it just about office-friendly, though perhaps a touch too bold for formal settings.

About

Opens with an energetic riot of citrus - think bergamot and lime, sharpened by a kick of pepper and the green bite of galbanum. As the initial zest settles, a subtle floral heart emerges, with jasmine and marigold adding a touch of smooth elegance. The dry down is a warm embrace of amber and musk, grounded by earthy patchouli and cedar, with an enduring fresh spice hum.
