Allende by Xerjoff was launched in 2018 and is a creation by perfumer Chris Maurice. This fragrance stands out for its rich blend of vanilla and cacao notes, which are complemented by floral and warm spicy accords. The composition opens with the sweetness of Madagascar vanilla and magnolia, creating an enveloping warmth that gradually transitions into a heart of cacao and more vanilla, grounding it in a cozy embrace. This unisex scent is a proof of Xerjoff's commitment to using the finest ingredients, offering a luxurious experience that is both comforting and distinctive.

Application Tips
Apply Allende with two sprays — one on each wrist. The Madagascar vanilla opens immediately but allows time for the cacao to develop, creating a layered effect that lasts throughout the day. It’s best enjoyed in cooler weather when its warm notes can linger without becoming overpowering.
