The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2020, Xerjoff’s 1986 is an unisex fragrance that balances crisp citrus and green notes with warm spicy and sweet accords. The opening is bright and fresh, with a touch of white floral that adds a subtle elegance. As the scent evolves, it reveals a rich warmth from its spicy undertones, creating a dynamic contrast between freshness and depth.
Two sprays are sufficient as the citrus and green notes can be quite potent initially. The fragrance blooms over time, so it’s best to let it settle for a few minutes before heading out. It pairs well with both casual and formal settings.
