The verdict
Best for
Xerjoff is an Italian niche perfume house founded in Turin, known for high-concentration extraits and lacquered ceramic bottles that sit in the collectors' tier of the market. The Scendira catalogue lists 212 Xerjoff fragrances, with 118 currently in stock. The house leans gourmand and unisex, with a signature move of pairing lavender or bergamot up top against tobacco, honey, vanilla and oud in the base, Naxos being the most-cited example.

If you want Xerjoff at its most talked-about, start with Naxos (honeyed tobacco lavender, 2015), Alexandria II (oud rose lavender, 2018), and Homme Anniversary (creamy lemon leather, 2024).
