Launched in 2015 and crafted by perfumer Mathieu Nardin, XJ 1861 Zefiro by Xerjoff is a complex Oriental Spicy fragrance that balances warmth with aromatic depth. The composition opens with elemi resin and white wine, creating an unexpected freshness that contrasts beautifully with the smoky incense and cinnamon notes in the heart. This contrast gives way to a rich base of amber and honey, which adds a balsamic sweetness to the overall profile. The scent is unisex, embodying the Italian luxury brand's commitment to using the finest ingredients.

Application Tips
Apply XJ 1861 Zefiro lightly to pulse points — the elemi resin and white wine notes are bright but fleeting. The smoky and cinnamon accords take about an hour to fully bloom, so give it time before layering with other scents or clothing.
