Cruz del Sur I by Xerjoff was launched in 2017 and crafted by perfumer Miroslav Petkov, blending rich oriental spices with smoky, leathery notes. The fragrance opens with rum and dried fruits, creating a warm, inviting aroma that transitions into the heart of cloves, cumin, and cedar. The base layers of leather, castoreum, myrrh, incense, labdanum, amber, and sandalwood add depth and complexity, evoking a sense of historical richness and lastingness.

The story behind the bottle.
The dimly lit study where old books line the shelves, and a leather-bound journal rests on a polished wooden desk, filled with notes of distant lands and forgotten scents.
