Xerjoff Gran Ballo is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. Gran Ballo opens with Red Fruits and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Gardenia, and Honey, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Caramel. Xerjoff's Gran Ballo carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A divisive floral gourmand that’s either a 'refined Viva La Juicy' or just a pricier clone. Expect sweetness and white florals, but don't always bank on the longevity Xerjoff is known for. Definitely try before you buy, as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.

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
Also Works:

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its sweet and creamy profile makes it a lovely choice for casual wear and dates, but its moderate sillage keeps it from being overwhelming for the office. It's generally too playful and sweet for formal events and completely unsuited for sport.

About

Gran Ballo opens with a sparkling burst of red berries and tangerine, quickly ushering in a sweet, creamy heart of jasmine, gardenia, and honey. The drydown settles into a comforting, warm base of caramel, vanilla, and amber, softened by a touch of sandalwood. It's a sweet, floral composition with a gourmand twist.
