Italica by Xerjoff is a warm, milky gourmand for cold nights out. It opens with milk, saffron and almond, soft and lightly spiced, then sweetens through vanilla and toffee. The base is sandalwood, musk and cedar, which keeps the sweetness from turning heavy. Launched in 2016 and worn by men and women alike, it suits anyone who wants dessert-like warmth without it reading as too soft. Voters keep it for winter and fall, almost always at night or in the evening, and it fits going-out plans well. Opinions on its sillage are genuinely split, while the longevity vote leans toward eternal, so a couple of sprays tend to hold. A 3ml decant is enough to live with it through a stretch of cold evenings before choosing a bigger size.

The community verdict
For someone in the mood for rich almond sweetness, Italica starts with milk and saffron before toffee and vanilla settle into woods. Wear time divides between long and exceptionally long, while projection splits between strong and room-filling. It fits winter nights, with autumn evenings working too.

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.
