Zafeer Oud Vanille

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Alexandre.J Zafeer Oud Vanille

Alexandre.J is a French niche house known for dramatic, sculpted bottles and luxurious oriental compositions that blend French artistry with Middle Eastern opulence. Zafeer Oud Vanille is one of its most beloved releases, a gourmand oud that wraps the deep resinous warmth of oud in caramelized vanilla, smooth tonka and a touch of leather.

The Story Behind the Scent

Our interpretation captures that same intoxicating signature: a warm spicy opening, a resinous oud heart and a rich vanilla and tonka drydown.

We build it as a long lasting Eau de Parfum with a high perfume oil load, made in the EU, so the richness carries through the evening.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original is a luxury eau de parfum sold at high pricing. We build ours at a high perfume oil concentration and sell direct, so you get the same character for a fraction of the price.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a gourmand oud vanilla scent and wants a luxury style fragrance without the high price.
