Xerjoff Shooting Stars Cruz Del Sur Ii

Mostly juicy and ripe, like peach, berry or apple. Underneath that, smells like food: caramel, chocolate, vanilla, bakery.

It opens on mango, guava and pineapple, moves through black currant, exotic floral notes and violet leaf, and settles on milk, dried fruits and musk.

• pineapple: sharp tropical sweetness with a slightly boozy edge
• black currant: tart purple fruit with a green, faintly sulphurous edge. Often labelled cassis

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

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