Xerjoff Fars

Mostly dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer. Underneath that, cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers.

It opens on lavender, juniper and bergamot, moves through geranium, jasmine and cedar, and settles on ambergris, patchouli and cypriol oil or nagarmotha.

• lavender: clean herbal flower, cooling and slightly soapy
• juniper: dry resinous berry, piney and gin-like

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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