Gibeon
Concentration not disclosed
A powdery floral of orris and neroli, set on vanilla and tonka bean.
Gibeon belongs to Xerjoff's Shooting Stars, a collection each of whose fragrances bears the name of a meteorite: here, an iron meteorite that came down in Namibia, in the Kalahari Desert.
Neroli and Ceylon cinnamon open the composition. Tuscan orris, Bulgarian rose and patchouli form a powdery heart. Sandalwood, cedarwood, musk, Madagascar vanilla and tonka bean make up a soft base.

Gibeon in detail
Xerjoff, the Turin house founded by Sergio Momo, devotes one of its collections to meteorites: every case holds a certified fragment of the stone that gives the fragrance its name. Gibeon, an iron meteorite that landed in Namibia, inspires a soft, powdery floral.
The official pyramid opens with fresh, slightly bitter neroli and Ceylon cinnamon. The heart gathers Bulgarian rose, patchouli and Tuscan orris, which gives the fragrance its powdery texture. The base pairs sandalwood, cedarwood, musk, Madagascar vanilla and tonka bean.
Gibeon is worn in autumn and winter, by day or in the evening. It is an enveloping floral, made very soft by vanilla and tonka.
Three florals in our catalogue come very close: Enigma Pour Femme by Roja Parfums shares rose, neroli, patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla, orris and musk; Elysium Absolue, from the same house, brings together rose, neroli, patchouli, orris and sandalwood; Dia Woman by Amouage pairs rose, orris, musk, vanilla, cedar and sandalwood.
