The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Xenial, launched by Navitus Parfums in 2023 and crafted by perfumer Christian Carbonnel, is a composition that captures the essence of conviviality. The fragrance opens with the warmth of Brazilian orange and lemon, mingling with the aromatic freshness of clary sage and lavender. As it settles, notes of whiskey and honey emerge, creating an intriguing balance between the fresh spiciness of clary sage and the sweet depth of vanilla and ambergris. This is a scent that invites you into its embrace, evoking the cozy atmosphere of a well-loved gathering.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays initially, as the bright citrus notes fade within an hour. The whiskey and vanilla base develops best close to skin, making it perfect for intimate settings where its complexity can be fully appreciated.
