Xerjoff 2012 Parfum
Zafar
Xerjoff Zafar is a Parfum launched in 2012, created by Chris Maurice. Zafar opens with Bergamot and Saffron, settles into a heart of Oud, Rose, and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Sandalwood. Xerjoff's Zafar carries an Acquired verdict, an oud-led wear.
Zafar is a polarising beast. For the uninitiated, the opening is a pure barnyard assault of funky oud. But for the confident oud-lovers who brave the strong start, a sophisticated, woody, and musky drydown awaits.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Best Occasions
The initial challenging, barnyard oud makes Zafar unsuitable for office or casual wear where you might offend. It's best reserved for formal occasions or specific date nights where its unique character can be appreciated, though many users suggest waiting until the drydown to go out.
