1888 by Xerjoff opens on saffron, pepper and coriander, with a spiced note of carnation running beneath. Ylang-ylang, rose and neroli build a rich floral heart, and the base warms into sandalwood, birch, patchouli and amber. It wears as true unisex, suiting men and women equally who want something spiced rather than sweet. Spring and summer daylight, often at the office, is where voters place it, an easy choice through the working day. Longevity leans long-lasting in the community vote. On sillage, most voters agree it runs strong, carrying further than a floral usually does. A 10ml decant is enough to wear 1888 across a stretch of working days before deciding whether it earns a bottle.

The community verdict
Carnation, pepper and coriander give 1888 a spicy floral start before rose and ylang-ylang lead towards sandalwood and patchouli. Wear time divides between long-lasting and exceptionally long-lasting; most find its projection strong. It fits summer days best, with spring and the office also working.

The house
More from Xerjoff
Xerjoff is a Turin house, started in 2007 by Sergio Momo to make perfume with the richness of Italian design: dense, golden and unashamedly sweet. Most of the range sits in warm territory, with vanilla, amber and tonka bean underneath and saffron, cinnamon or cardamom for heat. A bright streak of bergamot keeps several of them from feeling heavy. Begin with XJ 1861 Naxos, where lavender meets honey over a sweet vanilla base. Erba Pura is the sunny one, a juicy fruit-and-citrus blend, and Lira turns citrus into something close to caramel. For a greener side of the house, try Torino21, fresh with aromatic herbs. Alexandria II shows the darker, woodier face, all amber and powder. Wear a few side by side and you will soon find which Xerjoff mood is yours.
