Bucephalus Xi Cologne by Armaf, A fresh and subtly sweet woody citrus fragrance with four-season appeal, Bucephalus Xi layers tart-sweet tones of crisp fruit and subdued florals over a smooth woody amber base. The scent opens bright and effervescent with vibrant accords of juicy pineapple, tangy black currant and fruity-aromatic bergamot. Clean, lemony-fresh red rose and serene white jasmine bloom at the heart, harmonized with balsam tones of warm myrrh. An elegant, masculine base of musk, blended woods, ambergris and a touch of dry vanilla produces a serenely confident trail.

The United Arab Emirates label Armaf first released this classically elegant men’s scent in 2019 as a duplicate of Creed’s Aventus. The fragrance is named for Alexander the Great’s famed black battle horse. Other popular men’s compositions by the brand include the spicy floral aromatic Tres Nuit, the powdery citrus aromatic El Cielo, the woody herbal aromatic Ventana, the woody warm spicy Voyage and the fruity and smoky leather scent Club de Nuit Intense Man.
