Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - More Than Words EDP
Chris Maurice's 2012 entry in Xerjoff's Join The Club line - a luxury oriental-woody built around a jammy rose-oud heart wrapped in heavy labdanum, frankincense and ambergris. Reads dense, dark, and unmistakably niche. Polarising but well-regarded among rose-oud collectors.

Our Verdict - No.338 More Than Words Parfum
No.338 leans into Xerjoff's More Than Words - fruity, floral top notes over a resinous oud heart and a smoky labdanum-olibanum base. It's a fair sketch of the shape but plays flatter and sweeter, without the original's slow-building oriental richness.

Season and Occasion Fit

More Than Words

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Heavy labdanum-ambergris-oud base with a jammy rose heart is firmly autumn-winter territory; the resinous depth reads heavy in warm weather. Spring at low dosage; summer is incompatible.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Luxury rose-oud-amber with strong projection fits formal evening, dinner, and date wear naturally. Too distinctive and heavy for office or sport.
