The Majestic Jardin

Oh my god, where do I start? As a lover and someone who mostly seeks out airy perfumes, this is the Holy Grail. If you see the notes predominantly, what you will get is cherry, tobacco, and almond, with vanilla sort of giving it the volume. It's very easy for such a perfume, especially the cheaper ones to be dense and sticky However my definition and one of the solid reasons I now gravitate towards niche fragrances is because of its airy character, devoid of labels such as male : female , or when to wear etc This fragrance is exactly that and more It’s cherry tobacco (dry) in one word and the performance is over the roof. Can be worn in regions with high humidity as dryness will cut through So so addictive and was the first niche I ever owned Typically notes we'll make you believe that this is a Middle Eastern or an Oriental scent but in this case it is absolutely not. In fact the entire house of Alexander AJ, to my nose, has achieved one thing which is very rare, which is to take the Oriental notes and make it smell western in French. Do try it out; you will not regret it and ignore the hate.

I love this fragrance. It is a must have fragrance for me (honestly top 3 of about 300), but it is not going to be for everyone. This fragrance is mystical, enchanting, hidden, and sacred. It is smoke and incense and invokes visions of the Isobel Martin from the “Night Circus”. The cherry is in the back. It is sour and not boozy or sweet. The pepper is smoky like burning incense, the tobacco is there, but not overly sweet on my skin. The patchouli is not obvious or dirty. And the vanilla is just barely there. This is not a gourmand fragrance. The cedar is fresh and delicious. I can see a man wearing this and liking it, but this fragrance is for that woman. Mysterious and spiritual. I love it, and my husband always makes a positive comment when I spray this. I wear this all year, but it is very nice in colder weather.

I enjoyed Majestic Garden very much. This perfume is so exciting and delicious....! Nonetheless, the base is drown in tobacco, which isn't exactly suitable for tender women. It requires strong character and self-confidence. Or, I agree with LSAUG, could please male owner more. The composition is exclusive. All notes are very significant and clear. The almonds are mild and a bit creamy. Cherries juicy and tart, go well together with floral note. Cedar and patchouli add solid, sophisticated and elegant aroma: deep and almost dark. If you like strong, bold perfumes, perfumes that are not mainstream, this one is a sufficient luxury. And lasts days...

This is one of the most mysterious perfumes I have ever worn. After I first tried it I didnt think I'd ever wear it again. For some reason the sharp bitter almond at the top convinced me it wasnt for me. Then came the most delicious dry down ever. The notes began to unfold and I was emersed in a lovely composition of delicious cherry, patchouli and cedar. This perfume does not perform well on me in cold weather. But when the temp heats up the notes blossom beautifully. I can see how some may not get on well will this fragrance. But you may want to give it more than one wearing and see if you end up really liking it.

If you looking for projection, this one will wins your heart... deep spicy fruity-floral with smokey woody touch.. it has this rose-imaginary nuance, but clearly no rose listed on the notes.. it has this boozy effect in the opening as well.. this is clearly a head-turner scent in my opinion - its LOUD!
