About
Groove Xcape by Xerjoff is a fragrance for women and men. Groove Xcape was launched in 2023. Top notes are Pepper, elemi, Cardamom and Ginger; middle notes are Incense, Myrhh, Mimosa and Rose; base notes are Cedar, Benzoin, Labdanum and Patchouli. A new realm reveals itself with a new chapter of Xerjoff Blends, between the notes of sound and scent.Sergio Momo and Max Casacci, co-founder of Subsonica and musical pioneer, have combined the sacredness of sound with perfumery’s most precious ingredients to create an unparalleled universe that explores the power of rhythm and scent, transporting the wearer to new, celestial heights.Casacci’s new track is created solely through the sounds of Xerjoff perfumes - the collision of the flacons, the swirling of the liquid and the hiss of the spray, mimicked in the Groove Xcape perfume’s metallic top notes through ginger, elemi, pepper and cardamom, while incense, mimosa and myrrh seep into the heart, emulating Max Casacci’s muse for mysticism.Groove Xcape leads to an exquisite base of labdanum, cedar wood and benzoin.OLFACTORY NOTESCardamom, Pepper, Elemi, GingerIncense, Rose, Mimosa, MyrrhPatchouli, Labdanum, Cedar Wood, Benzoin
