1888 in detail
1888 belongs to the Casamorati line of Xerjoff, the Turin house, which presents it as a timeless woody amber. Its published profile is woody and spicy; the page gives neither the year nor the perfumer.
The opening brings together green pepper, clove and coriander, for a spicy start. Sunny, creamy ylang-ylang softens the heart. The base pairs warm amber, Mysore sandalwood and patchouli, which give the fragrance its depth. According to the house, a leather accent and an animal touch also join in.
1888 is worn in autumn and winter, by day or in the evening. It is an elegant spicy, ambery woody fragrance, for those who love classic, warm compositions. It readily accompanies an autumn evening or a dinner out.
Three niche woody fragrances in our catalogue share its amber, sandalwood and patchouli: Bois Obscur by Byredo, Interlude Man by Amouage and Drunk Lovers by Born To Stand Out, each with its own opening.
