Kemi in detail
Xerjoff, the house founded in Turin by Sergio Momo, places Kemi in its K Collection. Its name was used for Egypt in Antiquity. The house files it among its woody fragrances: a dark, animalic oud.
The official pyramid opens with Atlas cedar and powerful, woody Laotian buaya oud. The heart gathers two animalic notes, leathery castoreum and musky civet, with gurjun balsam, a soft, woody resin from Southeast Asia. The base pairs Australian sandalwood and Madagascar vanilla.
Kemi is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter. It is a dense fragrance for lovers of animalic ouds; its final vanilla softens it little by little. It suits a late dinner or a winter evening.
Three woody fragrances in our catalogue share some of its materials: Epic Man by Amouage brings together oud, sandalwood, cedar and castoreum; Blue Hope, from the same house, pairs cedar, castoreum and vanilla; Atlas Fever by Ex Nihilo combines cedar, sandalwood and vanilla.
