What we couldn’t check
- Concentration designation. Alexandria doesn't state a concentration for Serene.
- Claimed fragrance notes. Both brands describe notes in prose rather than a full pyramid, so each list is limited to the notes its page names.
- Claimed longevity. Neither brand makes a longevity claim.
- Comparative performance. How each fragrance actually smells, projects and lasts on skin has not been compared; notes are what each brand claims.
