  1. Caught me off guard; I expected something unbearable, but I won’t pay the price. Smells like coconut cake with synthetic, plasticky vanilla. It’s creamy with brown sugar and loads of vanilla bomb, topped with a citrus note that doesn’t lighten it. Halfway through, it hints at cocoa, but only as a very subtle powder. Overall, it reminds me of sunscreen, making it hard to wear; in summer, it can be cloying. It lasts incredibly long with a noticeable trail and over 12 hours, but the quality doesn’t justify its category and price. For me, it’s only suitable for home or informal moments, not what I look for in Xerjoff, so I wouldn’t buy the bottle.

    Ugh, this vanilla makes my stomach turn. The only good thing is that it lasts forever. It’s synthetic, plasticky, and horrible vanilla. With all due respect to lovers, but I just can’t stand it. It gets into my head and hurts with that artificial citrus scent. The floral dry down is very ordinary; it doesn’t even work as a room freshener. It’s like an ultra-boosted version of Kenzo Amour, which I adore, but this doesn’t smell like Xerjoff. A zero.

  3. What a wonder and hidden gem from Xerjoff. So many nuances and evolution in this fragrance that is a citrus and gourmand ode to vanilla. I love it to death.

  4. Thank goodness I tried a decant; this perfume doesn’t seem like Xerjoff and isn’t worth the price at all. It smells like playdough, very chemical… a chemical and quite powdery vanilla.
