What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
If you would like to get to know Oxford, we recommend this 30 ml. It is not a scent you understand in one second: the first impression is herbal and almost medicinal, and only after a while does the warm side come through. That is exactly what makes it so engaging to wear. We like to take it on city breaks, to museums and bookshops, where it feels right at home. A small bottle for a headstrong character.
