Eden Perfumes No.696 1861 Naxos is a Parfum. No.696 1861 Naxos opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Lavender, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Cinnamon, and Cashmeran, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Tobacco. Eden Perfumes's No.696 1861 Naxos carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Eden's No.696 leans into Xerjoff Naxos's lavender-tobacco warmth with a louder, sweeter opening and a flatter, less layered drydown. The honeyed vanilla-tonka base is a fair approximation, but it fades faster and reads simpler than the £200+ original.

About

No.696 is Eden Perfumes' take on Xerjoff Naxos, a unisex woody-aromatic built on lavender, bergamot and lemon up top before cinnamon, cashmeran and jasmine sambac warm the heart. The base settles into tobacco leaf, vanilla and tonka bean, giving the honeyed, slightly boozy warmth that made Naxos a cult favourite. Where the original impresses with slow-building richness and real depth, Eden's dupe is more immediate and one-dimensional, projecting hard in the first hour or two before settling into a soft, skin-close sweetness. It is a serviceable everyday alternative for the Naxos silhouette rather than a true match, best suited to autumn and winter evenings where its tobacco-vanilla core can shine without needing to compete with the original's complexity.
