  1. Ozymandias

    I love Tempest. In my experience with Kemi, now that Xerjoff has the K line, this is the easiest to wear. I find it very friendly, with those citrus top notes and an oud that isn’t as aggressive as its sisters, and that vetiver dry down.

    Extremely difficult to describe. Imagine leather bags in a souk, spices in the distance, the scent of bare feet in sweaty babouches, horse sweat, storm-soaked esparto, wet straw, mud, and petrol. It is super animal, dark, intriguing, nocturnal, and wild; tarred yet luxurious, radiating power and distance. It leaves a massive trail. As it dries, the animal and tarred notes recede, becoming more woody and elegant, improving considerably, though it is hard to wear. In a man, it suggests someone powerful who hides something and doesn’t say everything they know. If you want to stand out among very elegant people, you won’t go unnoticed. For a woman, it would have to be an older, extremely elegant lady.

  3. Pure horror. It is unpleasant even without spraying, smelling of a stable, and I detect no pleasant notes. I apologise for being so clear, but it is totally unbearable.

  4. Javier Alfonso

    I love Tempest. With the K line from Xerjoff, Kemi is something else entirely, but this is the easiest to wear. Very friendly, with those citrus top notes and an oud that doesn’t bite like its sisters, leaving that vetiver dry down.

    Tempest is a beast. Imagine leather bags in a souk with spices in the distance, bare feet in sweaty babouches, horse sweat, storm-soaked esparto, muddy straw and petrol. It is animal, dark, intriguing and nocturnal, yet luxurious and powerful. The trail is enormous. As it dries, the animal notes recede and the woody, elegant ones take over. Hard to wear: it suggests a powerful gentleman who hides something. If you want to stand out among elegant people, you won’t go unnoticed. For women, only for an older, extremely elegant lady.
