The story behind the bottle.
Empiryan, launched by Xerjoff in 2023, is a composition that balances the rich warmth of tobacco and amber with earthy, smoky undertones. The fragrance opens with the robust aroma of tobacco leaf, which seamlessly integrates with the woody notes of cypriol oil and incense. As it evolves, the complexity deepens with the addition of Singapore patchouli and Atlas cedar, creating a harmonious blend that is both grounding and inviting. Madagascar vanilla adds sweetness to this intricate mix, while labdanum offers an earthy depth.
Apply Empiryan to pulse points for a more intimate experience; its smoky and woody base notes are best appreciated close to the skin. The tobacco and vanilla notes will develop gradually over time, so avoid layering with other scents to fully enjoy its complexity.
