About This Perfume
Xerjoff Lua comes across as fresh melon and bergamot with powdery rose. It opens with melon, bergamot and orange, moves into Bulgarian rose, iris and lily of the valley and settles on musk, vanilla and cedarwood. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
It is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. Reach for it for date nights. Released in 2009.
Wearers report that it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something floral and powdery for date nights.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike sweet fragrances.
Around $273.
