Erba Pura
Erba Pura by Xerjoff is an unisex eau de parfum from 2014 in the luxury price tier. It opens with sweet orange, lemon and bergamot, moves into red berries and peach and dries down to vanilla, musk and amber. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects very strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Sweet Orange Juicy and cheerful. The friendliest citrus there is.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Red Berries Generic jammy berry blend. Bright, sweet and crowd-pleasing.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
