Alexandria Fragrances Zion is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Zion opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Grapefruit, and Lime, settles into a heart of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, Cedar, Vetiver, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Leather, Vanilla, Labdanum, and Benzoin. Alexandria Fragrances's Zion carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This much-hyped Elysium dupe divides opinions sharply. While some hail it as a masterpiece for projection and longevity, others find it cheap, synthetic, and fleeting. It's a risk-taker for those chasing luxury on a budget.

About

Zion opens with a zesty, tart explosion of grapefruit, lemon, and lime, underpinned by an aromatic greenness from galbanum and thyme. As it settles, juicy blackcurrant and crisp apple emerge, softened by delicate florals like rose and lily of the valley. The base introduces a robust, earthy vetiver alongside cedar, with a subtle leathery warmth and a hint of sweet vanilla and ambergris giving it depth and a surprising creaminess.
