Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Italica EDP
Italica is a true love-it-or-hate-it gourmand - a divisive, heavy-hitting dessert with an almond and milk core. Some will be instantly smitten, others will be scrubbing their skin red. If you dare to try, prepare for intense sweetness and don't overspray.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Xerjoff Italica 2021 Oil
Italica 2021 by Xerjoff is an opulent feast of sweet, creamy almond and milk shaken in a warm vanilla base, perfect for those seeking an indulgent experience.

Season and Occasion Fit

Italica

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

This is a beast of a gourmand; its immense sweetness and strong projection make it unsuitable for professional settings. It shines on dates or in very cold, casual environments, where a rich, inviting scent can be appreciated. It's far too heavy for sports.

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

With its warm and sweet accords of milk, almond, and vanilla, Xerjoff Italica 2021 is particularly suited for cooler months like fall and winter, but it can still be charming in spring due to its gourmand allure.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its rich gourmand profile makes it ideal for formal occasions or romantic dates, while its moderate-to-strong projection ensures it doesn’t overwhelm in casual or office settings.
