Xerjoff Luxor is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Chris Maurice. Luxor opens with Leather, Cardamom, and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Cedar, Tobacco, Myrrh, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, Oud, and Patchouli. Xerjoff's Luxor carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Luxor is a challenging, divisive scent that demands patience. Its opening is often described as off-putting, even 'fecal', but those brave enough to push through are rewarded with a rich, complex dry-down. Definitely try before you buy, it's not for the faint of heart.

About

Luxor opens with a pungent blast of leathery spice, driven by cardamom and cinnamon. This intense start mellows into a heart of rich cedar, smoky incense, and dry tobacco, with a hint of earthy myrrh. The true magic unfolds in the long dry-down, where multifaceted oud takes centre stage, underscored by dark patchouli and the unique earthiness of cypriol, creating an ancient, mysterious aroma.
