Xerjoff Erba Gold

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, juicy and ripe, like peach, berry or apple.

It opens on brazilian orange, sicilian lemon and calabrian bergamot, moves through melon, pear and green apple, and settles on white musk, amber and madagascar vanilla.

• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does
• ginger: sharp and fresh with a peppery bite, closer to the raw root than to gingerbread

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
