Alexandria UK Scandalous is an Eau de Parfum. Scandalous opens with Lemon, Lime, Basil, and Mint, settles into a heart of Petitgrain, Violet, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Alexandria UK's Scandalous carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Scandalous goes after Roja Dove Scandal Pour Homme's emerald fougere, barbershop-fresh signature. The citrus-herb opening lands close, but the mossy, patchouli-vetiver dry-down thins out faster and reads simpler than Roja's dense, textured original.

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.

About

Scandalous is built around Roja Dove Scandal Pour Homme's green fougere charisma, opening with a bright lemon-lime duo cooled by basil, mint and tarragon that mirrors the original's garden-fresh punch. A heart of petitgrain and geranium brings the classic barbershop polish, with a touch of violet powder standing in for the reference's more layered floral work. The dry-down aims at Roja's mossy, earthy base, pairing patchouli and vetiver over oakmoss, musk and cedar, but the effect is flatter and shorter-lived, especially once the initial aromatic burst fades. It is a recognisable, wearable take on the barbershop-fougere idea rather than a note-for-note match, best suited to daytime office wear where the original's slow-burn complexity isn't essential.
