XERJOFF 1861 NAXOS EAU DE PARFUM 100ML

Product Information

The synthetic cashmeran gives a musky, slightly earthy woody note; to what extent it had to be resorted to, is beyond my knowledge. My now very scent-experienced nose said so right away; further research showed that she was not wrong! When I smelled Naxos the first time, my expectations, driven by quite a few social media entries, were so high that the fragrance could never have met them.

You have to be dressed appropriately to do this fragrance justice. With a pair of sweatpants one will certainly not succeed.Let's move on to the Naxos. And what can I say? To this fragrance I think so much was said, but I describe you briefly my impression. Again, we start with the Mugler and what can I say? This fragrance has exceeded my expectations. Let's not forget that this is a relatively inexpensive designer fragrance. For that, this one is really great. There is no real scent progression here, but that does not matter. Honey powerfully perfumed with cinnamon flows around an abundance of white jasmine flowers, the great perfume-intensive umbels of night bloomers. These give their strong-sweet aroma without any restriction and completely unrestrained to their surroundings. The start of Naxos is surprisingly citrus-fresh. The bergamot and the lemon want to show here that they have the first lead. Nevertheless, they withdraw, briskly beginning, more and more without ever disappearing completely. They form, so to speak, the citric path on which Naxos will stroll in the next hours and on which they will be constantly present. No sooner is the path smoothed than it is taken over by honey and tobacco. The aromatic, dark honey rushes forward impetuously, while the tobacco is still a little cautious, one foot in front of the other, spreading only the first light scents. The creamy, even already spicy aromatic honey is slowed down in its flow by some lavender and floral, but gains even more seductive charm. In the meantime, the now thirsty tobacco could also catch up with the honey, in its luggage further finest spices. From here on, the two agile fellows together on their still long fragrant way!

Pretty soon, actually already after the lavender showed itself the first time, I meet tobacco: bright (not fermented) tobacco, freshly cut: a fragrance that always delights me.Incidentally, for some time it has been possible to host events on the roof of this structure: the view over Rome is often more impressive than the people who meet there. Thus, for the first time, the sensual heart of Sicily opens up to me: quietly, yet intensely fragrant and ready to set the mood for an intoxicating adventure. The Xerjoff-bearer lowers his gaze to the strange figure and answers modestly as he is: "But no, I don't think I am better, I am better"

But I don't want to wash it off No, actually the sadistic thought of wearing Naxos on a hot summer day comes to my mind. With me the Naxos wins. And yet I can put everyone the P.H. to the heart. A very great, sweet fragrance and for this price great cinema. The P.H. hits directly on the twelve and is, like all Muglers always a little synthetic. But that does the fragrance no harm. XJ 1861 Naxos" reminds me of a wide, low divan with a multitude of soft, white cushions and blankets. Everything already seems a little rumpled ... Other spices also play a flattering role: I detect cloves and nutmeg (a reminder of the Christmas spice cake that has become an annual ritual). The Mugler is by the extreme sweetness really only a candidate for temperatures below 10 degrees. Perfect for the fall / winter. Also for the club or a date a good choice! The Xerjoff, on the other hand, definitely still goes at 10-15 degrees, on a spring day or summer night. The sweetness isn't as overloaded and the subtlety makes it a little more usable. Again, though, a clear candidate for fall/winter. Date? Definitely. It would be too bad for the club for me. Both fragrances are 100% unisex....also dear ladies, dare you!Do not get me wrong. Right from the start you notice the high quality and dedication with which the fragrance was created.
