HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Via Cavour I by Xerjoff was launched in 2017 and crafted by perfumer Chris Maurice. This Oriental Vanilla fragrance opens with a burst of sweetness from quince and white peach before diving into the heart of dark chocolate, red berries, and Moroccan rose. The base notes of caramel, Madagascar vanilla, agarwood (oud), amber, cashmeran, and musk create a warm and enveloping finish. Via Cavour I is an ode to indulgence, where each note layers upon another, creating a luxurious blend that feels both comforting and sophisticated.
Apply Via Cavour I directly to pulse points — wrists, neck, and behind the ears. The caramel and vanilla notes are most prominent in the first hour but settle into a warm, powdery base that lasts throughout the day. It’s best for evening wear when its rich, indulgent character can fully unfold.
