White Zest

by Hany Hafez

Alexandria Fragrances White Zest is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Hany Hafez. White Zest settles into a heart of Lemon, Musk, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Alexandria Fragrances's White Zest carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This perfume is a divisive one. Fans laud its bright, creamy lemon notes and good projection, often comparing it to Chanel's Allure Homme Edition Blanche. Critics find it falls short on longevity and can have a less refined opening, with some finding it off-putting.

Its fresh, clean citrus character makes it highly versatile for casual wear and daily office use, where it's unlikely to offend. While some detect good projection, the general consensus on longevity is moderate, making it less ideal for formal events requiring all-day wear.

About

White Zest opens with a vibrant, sharp lemon, brightened instantly by a hint of pink pepper. As the citrus mellows, a creamy vanilla and tonka bean sweetness emerges, softening the edges. Woody notes of cedar and sandalwood, alongside a subtle musk, ground the composition, leading to a gentle, clean dry down. It's a fresh, uplifting scent with an underlying warmth.
