Xerjoff Luxor

Mostly warm baking spice, in the cinnamon and clove family. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on cinnamon, leather and cardamom, moves through tobacco, myrhh and incense, and settles on thailand oud, cambodian oud and cypriol oil or nagarmotha.

• cinnamon: hot sweet baking spice
• leather: like a new leather jacket: dry, smoky, faintly bitter

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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