Xerjoff Perfumes

Honey and Tobacco: Xerjoff Naxos

Naxos brings citrus and lavender together with honey, cinnamon and jasmine. Tobacco leaf, vanilla and tonka bean form its warmer base.

Honey with tobacco might sound odd. But the sweetness sits alongside the drier character of tobacco rather than making the fragrance purely sugary. Lavender and citrus also give you something fresher to consider in the opening.

If you enjoy warm fragrances with sweetness and spice, Naxos is one to compare. Look at the whole composition rather than choosing it for the honey note alone.

Erba Pura: Fruit With a Musky Base

Erba Pura features Sicilian orange, lemon and bergamot, followed by a Mediterranean fruit accord. White musk, amber and vanilla sit underneath.

So although fruit is central to the fragrance, it doesn’t stop at a fresh citrus opening. The musky, warmer base is part of its character too. If you’re deciding between Erba Pura and Naxos, think fruit and musk for Erba Pura, compared with honey, lavender and tobacco for Naxos.

Mint, Basil and Rosemary: Torino21

What if you want something fresher? Torino21 combines mint, lemon, basil and rosemary with lavender and other aromatic notes.

Think about the smell of fresh mint leaves alongside citrus and herbs. That gives you a starting point for understanding its direction. It offers a different option from Xerjoff’s sweeter fragrances. Compare Torino21 if citrus and aromatic scents are what you usually reach for.

Alexandria II: Apple, Rose and Oud

Alexandria II has plenty of woods in its composition, but there are other notes worth considering.

Apple, cinnamon, lavender and rosewood feature in the opening. Rose, cedarwood and lily of the valley follow. Oud, sandalwood, amber, musk and vanilla form the base. There’s fruit, spice and flowers alongside the woods. That doesn’t tell you how prominent you’ll find the oud, though.

If oud is unfamiliar to you, try a sample where possible before committing to a bottle.

Almond, Milk and Toffee: Casamorati Italica

If dessert-inspired perfumes appeal to you, take a closer look at Italica from Xerjoff’s Casamorati collection.

Almond, milky notes and saffron lead into toffee and vanilla. Sandalwood, cedarwood and white musk complete the composition. Quite a change from mint and basil.

The almond and milk notes contribute a creamy character alongside the sweetness. Woods add another element underneath. Italica is an example of a gourmand fragrance: a perfume with notes that bring food to mind.

Compare it with Naxos or Erba Pura if you enjoy sweetness, but remember that creamy almond, honeyed tobacco and musky fruit are different styles.
