Opera by Xerjoff opens on Turkish rose and orchard fruits, lush and a little sweet from the first minutes. Ylang-ylang and nutmeg add warmth to the heart, with leather and amber starting to show underneath. The base is rich and animalic: musk, Virginia cedar, Haitian vetiver, vanilla and patchouli, giving it real presence. Released in 2019, it is worn by men and women who like a fruity floral built on a darker, leathery frame. Voters wear it in fall and winter, mostly in the evening and at night, and it suits going out more than a quiet evening in. Longevity leans toward long-lasting and sillage toward strong, according to the vote, filling a room without much effort. A 3ml decant lets you live with it across a run of evenings first.

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.
