By the editors · 2 min readThe eponymous XerJoff opens with honey and bergamot — a confident, slightly medicinal sweetness over citrus that signals oriental territory immediately. The honey reads as both sweetener and anchor, giving the opening a density that bergamot alone couldn't achieve.
Ylang-ylang, orange blossom, and rose form the heart alongside cardamom, which adds a spiced warmth that pulls the florals slightly eastward. The combination is dense and sweet, with orange blossom providing a connecting thread from top to base.
Vetiver and patchouli in the base ground the sweetness in something earthy and durable, with vanilla amplifying the richness without tipping into confectionery. A house showcase composition: big, luxurious, and unambiguous about its ambitions.
