Xerjoff XJ Renaissance is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011. XJ Renaissance opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Petitgrain, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Rose, Lily of the Valley, and Mint, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Patchouli. Xerjoff's XJ Renaissance carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a real citrus bomb, bursting with photorealistic Italian lemons and mandarins. While some find its green and floral dry-down a bit old-fashioned or even like cleaning product, for most, it's a luxurious, refreshing summertime staple.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its bright, fresh, and moderately projecting nature makes it an excellent choice for casual wear and sports, especially in warm weather. While some find it too potent for the office, its uplifting vibe is generally well-received. It's sophisticated enough for some dates but might lack the gravitas for truly formal events.

About

XJ Renaissance opens with an exhilarating blast of bright, tangy lemon, Bergamot, and tangerine, immediately evoking sun-drenched Mediterranean groves. A verdant heart of mint and delicate lily of the valley emerges, softened by a whisper of rose. The base settles into a clean, musky cedar, grounded by earthy patchouli and a touch of amber, ensuring this freshie actually sticks around.
