Xerjoff Cruz del Sur II is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Cruz del Sur II opens with Apple Blossom, Pineapple, Mango, and Guava, settles into a heart of Floral Notes, Violet Leaf, and Blackcurrant, and dries down to a base of Milk, Musk, Cedar, and Vetiver. Xerjoff's Cruz del Sur II carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Cruz del Sur II is a tropical riot, divisive as hell but utterly captivating for those who get it. It's either a creamy, dreamy mango milkshake or a sour-milky nightmare on skin. Sample it first, because this one's a proper gamble.

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.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • 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

Imagine a vibrant smoothie bar on a sun-drenched beach, then someone laced your drink with a creamy, almost lactonic base. It kicks off with a juicy, authentic burst of mango, guava, and pineapple. As it settles, violet leaf adds a whisper of green, while a surprisingly rich milk accord softens the exotic fruits. The dry down wraps you in a comforting blend of dried fruits, vetiver, and subtle cedar, mellowing into a sweet, woody embrace.
