Xerjoff 2007 Parfum

M £££££ Acquired

Homme

Name: Homme Parfum
Brand: Xerjoff

Xerjoff Homme is a Parfum launched in 2007, created by Jacques Flori. Homme opens with Citrus and Spicy Notes, settles into a heart of Lavender, Ylang-Ylang, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Leather, and Vetiver. Xerjoff's Homme carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one is a divisive old-school leather bomb that takes no prisoners. Some will call it a masterpiece of masculine perfumery; others, a petrol-soaked relic. It's expensive, uncompromising, and definitely not a safe blind buy.

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.

Date

Given its strong sillage, long-lasting performance, and bold leather-heavy profile, Homme isn't ideal for the office. It leans more towards formal evenings or dates where its unique depth can be appreciated, but some might find it too intense for casual wear.

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

Opens with a brisk, almost industrial citrus and spice kick, quickly evolving into a bold, rubbery leather heart spiked with warm clove and the sophisticated creaminess of ylang-ylang. The base settles into a smooth, woody vetiver, retaining that distinct, unapologetic leather character throughout. It's a scent that screams vintage car interior and old books.
