Alexandria UK Brasilia 13zz01 is an Eau de Parfum. Brasilia 13zz01 opens with Bergamot, Apple, Blackcurrant, and Pineapple, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Birch, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Oakmoss, Vanilla, and Ambergris. Alexandria UK's Brasilia 13zz01 carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Brasilia 13zz01 is Alexandria UK's headline dupe of Creed's Aventus - the pineapple-apple-birch opening lands close, but the smoky birch reads more like a generic woody-smoke accord than Aventus's distinctive smoked oakmoss, and the ambergris base thins out several hours before the original's signature all-day trail.

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.

About

Brasilia 13zz01 leans hard into the fruity-smoky opening that made Creed's Aventus a modern icon - pineapple, apple and a dusting of black currant, cut with a birch note standing in for the original's famous smoky ambergris accord. In the first hour it is a fair approximation, loud and juicy in exactly the way fans expect. Where it falls short is complexity: Aventus builds a layered, almost savoury smokiness through its birch and ambergris that keeps evolving for hours, while Brasilia 13zz01's version settles quickly into a simpler patchouli-oakmoss-musk base that reads flatter and less refined. Longevity is the biggest gap reviewers flag - expect five to six hours of clear presence against Aventus's reputation for lasting most of a day. As an entry point to the fruity-chypre category, or for anyone who wants the vibe without the price, it does the job convincingly for the opening act, less so for the finish.
