Xerjoff Torino21 Review: A Minty Italian Escape

The fragrance that captures the crisp energy of Turin’s spring mornings.

By Sofia Chen-Martinez, Fragrance Trend Analyst · · Updated

Sofia tracks the cultural pulse of perfume — what TikTok wears, what Hollywood smells like, what auction houses bid on. Based between Paris and LA.

In the world of niche perfumery, few houses capture the essence of a place as vividly as Xerjoff. With Torino21, the brand transports us to the elegant, sun-drenched streets of Turin, Italy—a city known for its Baroque architecture, vibrant café culture, and the crisp Alpine air that sweeps through its piazzas. Launched in 2021, this unisex aromatic-fresh scent is a masterclass in green, minty sophistication.

Torino21 is not just a fragrance; it’s a mood. It’s the feeling of a morning espresso on a terrace overlooking the Po River, the scent of freshly cut herbs from a market stall, and the clean, invigorating breeze of the Italian Alps. In an era where consumers crave authenticity and sensory escapism, this perfume delivers a hyper-realistic, uplifting experience that feels both modern and timeless.

As a fragrance trend analyst, I’ve seen a surge in demand for fresh, green, and aromatic scents that offer a sense of clarity and well-being. Torino21 fits perfectly into this movement—a sophisticated alternative to the ubiquitous aquatic or citrus-heavy summer fragrances. It’s a scent for the mindful, the traveler, and the connoisseur who values quality over quantity.

Price & Value

$64-$345

“While the price is steep for a 100ml EDP, the quality of ingredients and the brand’s prestige justify the cost for niche enthusiasts. The lower end ($64) likely refers to travel sizes or decants, making it accessible for sampling.”
