Mexx XX Very Nice is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009. XX Very Nice opens with Bergamot, Melon, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Lily of the Valley, Peony, Cinnamon, and Pear, and dries down to a base of Virginia Cedarwood, Musk, and Sandalwood. Mexx's XX Very Nice carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

XX Very Nice is a cheerful fruity floral with a lot of juicy fruit: melon, pear and apricot. Peony and lily of the valley keep it light, and a hint of cinnamon adds some warmth. Nice is the right word - pleasant and easygoing, without much edge.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its intimate sillage and weak longevity make it suitable for casual wear or an office environment where it won't overpower. The fresh, fruity profile lends itself well to daytime use, particularly in warmer weather.

About

XX Very Nice opens with blackcurrant, bergamot and melon, a juicy, fresh and slightly watery start. The heart is a mix of pear, peony, lily of the valley and apricot, soft and fruity, with cinnamon adding a small touch of warmth. Virginia cedarwood, musk and sandalwood form the base, giving a clean, light finish. It is an easy, youthful fruity-floral that suits casual wear.
