Alexandria UK La Fraisé is an Eau de Parfum. La Fraisé opens with Mandarin and Strawberry, settles into a heart of Rose and Violet, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes. Alexandria UK's La Fraisé carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

La Fraisé is one of Alexandria UK's own blends rather than a dupe - a fruity-floral built around ripe strawberry and soft powdery woods, sweet and instantly likeable but simple next to niche fruity florals.

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

La Fraisé isn't chasing a specific designer scent - it's Alexandria UK's own composition, built around the juicy, sun-warmed sweetness of ripe strawberry. The opening pairs that fruit with a splash of orange for brightness, before violet and rose take over in the heart and soften the candy-like top into something more floral and grounded. The base is a simple powdery wood accord that keeps the whole thing wearable rather than cloying. It reads as a light, unfussy fruity-floral with obvious mass-market ambitions - straightforward in construction and short on complexity, but genuinely pleasant for daytime wear. Performance is modest: expect a few hours of close-wearing sillage rather than a fragrance that fills a room. It's best judged on its own terms as an inexpensive, cheerful fruity floral rather than measured against a specific original, since there isn't one.
