Defending Paris

I am most appreciative that Hany and (a few other) Middle Eastern houses are producing AFFORDABLE and HIGH-QUALITY dupes of niche perfumes. We all know MOST niche perfumes are sold at ridiculously stratospheric prices. The MARK-UP on women's fragrances is criminal. By skillfully creating fragrances, Alexandria Fragrances is making many lovely scents affordable for regular women like me. I'm tired of shelling out my hard-earned coin to greedy and deceptive, wealthy conglomerates. After being awestruck by "Director 46" and Alexandria Fragrances' business aesthetic, I had to try additional perfumes. I've never been a cherry-centric perfume person but I decided to try "Defending Paris." I never wore French Defense. I could never (and would never) justify the price point for ANY Mind Games perfumes. But "Defending Paris!" What is there to say? Defending Paris is a perfectly executed, slightly boozy, cherry-centric perfume with woods, florals, and amber. The perfume is wonderful. I am HOOKED and now a loyal Alexandria customer. Cannot wait 'til Directive 46 is back in stock! Much appreciation for the affordable fragrance options.

Beautifully done cherry fragrance i find works best for layering.

Got a travel size of this and loved it so much I got a full bottle. The Cherry smells tart in this compared to the Original so I would say it's more of a twist. Last 7-8 hours on my skin.

Mannnnn this is good , the cherry is sweet and slight sour in a good way, its ambery and smooth … i love it

Love it
