Kobe

Xerjoff Kobe is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. Kobe opens with Labdanum, Bergamot, and Orange, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Neroli, and Petitgrain, and dries down to a base of Rosewood, Ambergris, Benzoin, and Tonka Bean. Xerjoff's Kobe carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

Kobe is a divisive juice. For some, it's a stellar, long-lasting neroli bomb that elevates the citrus game to new heights. For others, it's a bitter, urinal-cake-esque mess. Definitely one to sample before committing, as your nose might pick up something very different.

With strong projection and decent longevity reported by many, it can be a bit much for intimate office settings. Its fresh, clean, yet sophisticated profile makes it versatile for casual outings and dates, while the underlying richness supports formal wear. However, it's generally too refined for sport.

About

Opens with a sharp, zesty burst of bergamot and orange, quickly joined by the green-tinged floral elegance of neroli and orange blossom. This vibrant citrus heart is underpinned by a warm, resinous amber and a smooth rosewood, creating a sophisticated depth. Hints of creamy tonka bean and a touch of the sea-saltiness of ambergris weave through, preventing it from ever being a standard freshie.
