The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2023, Layla by Xerjoff is a composition that weaves together the warmth of vanilla and musk with fresh spicy notes like nutmeg and cloves. The heart of ylang-ylang and patchouli adds an unexpected depth, creating a fragrance that feels both familiar and intriguing. Crafted by perfumer Chris Maurice, Layla balances its sweet and woody accords to create a scent that is unisex in nature, perfect for those who appreciate complexity and subtlety.
For best effect, apply Layla to pulse points and allow it to develop on your skin for at least an hour. The spicy top notes are fleeting but impactful, so a light touch is key. This fragrance reads better close to skin than across the room, making it ideal for intimate settings.
