More Than Words by Xerjoff opens with bergamot and neroli, bright and a little bitter before it warms up. Iris and jasmine sit at the centre, soft and floral rather than sweet, with a warm-spiced thread running underneath. The base leans into amber and a soft suggestion of oud, propped up by musk, vanilla and sandalwood for a woody, faintly sweet close. Launched in 2012, it crosses genders easily and suits whoever wants a scent with real depth rather than something that reads all at once. Voters keep it for winter and autumn, mostly at night. Most wearers vote its longevity eternal. The sillage vote leans strong, so it holds its distance well. A 3ml decant gives you a few nights to decide if it is yours.

The community verdict
Bergamot and neroli start More Than Words brightly before iris and jasmine soften into musk, vanilla and sandalwood. Most find it exceptionally long-lasting, while projection divides between strong and enormous. It suits winter nights and autumn evenings; go lightly if you prefer less sweetness.

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.
