Homme Anniversary
Homme Anniversary by Xerjoff is a masculine-leaning parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with bergamot, lemon and tarragon, moves into clove, leather and orange blossom and dries down to oakmoss, styrax, vanilla and tonka bean. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Tarragon Anise-tinged and green. Adds a herbal lift to barbershop scents.
Heart
- Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
Dry-down
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Styrax Smoky, leathery balsam. Slightly rubbery and dark.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
