Alexandria Fragrances Valley Of The Kings is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2017. Valley Of The Kings opens with Lemon and Orange, settles into a heart of Rose and Blackcurrant, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Vanilla.

If Xerjoff Richwood had a savvy, street-smart sibling, this would be it. 'Valley Of The Kings' is an opulent, attention-grabbing patchouli and sandalwood experience, but be mindful of the trigger. It projects luxury, making you feel a bit underdressed in your lounge pants.

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

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • 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

Valley Of The Kings opens with a sharp burst of lemon and orange, quickly transitioning to a dominant, earthy patchouli. A creamy, warm sandalwood emerges, smoothed by a touch of vanilla and musk. Hints of rose and blackcurrant add a subtle fruity-floral lift to this rich, woody composition, settling into a sophisticated, long-lasting drydown.
