Most-Discussed Xerjoff Perfumes

XJ 1861 Naxos, Torino 21 and Erba Pura are the Xerjoff perfumes people bring up most across the communities Scendira follows.

Note by note

XJ 1861 Naxos (Eau de Parfum, 2015) smells like honeyed vanilla tobacco smoke, lavender citrus, with lavender and bergamot first and tobacco leaf, vanilla and tonka bean at the base. Think cool mint and lemon over green herbs with Torino 21 (Eau de Parfum, 2021), starting with mint and lemon before musk and vervain take over. Erba Pura (Eau de Parfum, 2019) comes across as bright citrus and fruits, sweet creamy vanilla, opening on Sicilian orange and Calabrian bergamot and drying down to white musk, Madagascar vanilla and amber.
