The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2021 by Xerjoff, Symphonium Parfum is the work of perfumer Chris Maurice. This Oriental Vanilla fragrance begins with a bright and zesty blend of orange and mandarin, creating an initial impression that's both uplifting and cheerful. As it evolves, the composition transitions into a richer blend, where chocolate and cardamom introduce warm spiciness and sweetness. The heart is anchored by Laotian and Thailand oud, which bring a deep, resinous quality, while vanilla and musk provide a powdery, animalic base that rounds out the overall warmth.
Apply two sprays to ensure that the zesty top notes are balanced by the deeper base. The fragrance blooms after about half an hour, so it's best worn when you have time for it to develop fully. It pairs well with a light jacket or cardigan in cooler weather.
