La Fumée Alexandrie
Miller Harris · £190

It’s good, but this is close and much better value: Czech & Speake Dark Rose, £160 provisional
Rose, oud and incense converging into a smoky rose, and it is a well judged version of a register that is hard to get right. At £190 for 100ml it is the dearest thing in the category outside Floris, and the house next to it does the same idea for less. Czech & Speake price their rose and oud at £160 and state a higher oil concentration than the rest of their range.
- For
- Someone who wants smoke as well as rose and oud, and will pay for the specific one.
- Not for
- Anyone comparing rose and oud on value, where the Czech & Speake is £30 less at the same size.
What we checked
