Xerjoff Ascot Moon is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Xerjoff's Ascot Moon carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

Ascot Moon is a genuinely divisive green fragrance. Some find it a realistic, invigorating blast of nature, others get shoe polish, industrial notes, or simply too much bitter grass. Try before you buy, it's definitely not a safe blind purchase.

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.

Its strong, long-lasting green character makes it a bit much for a formal office setting, but it excels in casual, outdoor, or sporting events. It's unique enough for a date, though perhaps not universally appealing.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Moss

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

This scent opens with an intense, vivid burst of freshly cut grass and aromatic basil, instantly transporting you to a dewy morning field. As it evolves, spicy notes mingle with earthy patchouli and damp moss, evoking the scent of rich soil and exposed roots. The drydown settles into a musky, slightly drier green with hints of a curious metallic or leathery undertone, making it a complex and ever-shifting natural experience.
