Xerjoff Xj 1861 Naxos

Available on Amazon
In the world of niche perfumery, few fragrances command the instant recognition and adoration that Xerjoffβs XJ 1861 Naxos does. Celebrating the 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy, the 1861 collection captures the essence of the Mediterranean. Naxos, in particular, stands as a tribute to Sicilyβthe land of sun-drenched citrus groves and ancient, winding streets.
As we navigate the current landscape of 'gourmand-meets-tobacco' scents, Naxos remains the gold standard. It doesn't just sit on the skin; it creates an aura of refined opulence. For the fragrance enthusiast, it is a rite of passage; for the casual wearer, it is a signature scent that bridges the gap between professional composure and evening allure.
The Nose Behind the Scent
The perfumer for Xerjoff Naxos is not officially credited by the brand, a common practice for the house. The creative direction is led by Sergio Momo, the founder of Xerjoff, who guides the development of all their fragrances.
