Modoc in detail
Xerjoff, the Turin house founded by Sergio Momo, named Modoc after a meteorite that fell in Kansas in 1905. This fragrance from the meteorite collection, which the house files among its woody florals, was presented at the Venice Skywalk Exhibition.
The very full official pyramid opens with eight notes: mugwort, basil, bergamot, coriander, grapefruit, lemon, orange and sage. The heart gathers orris, lavender, orange blossom, laurel, pine needles and rose. The base blends amber, sandalwood, musk, patchouli, vanilla and vetiver.
Modoc is worn by day, in spring and autumn. Its aromatic herbs lead the opening, before a soft, woody base. It suits the office, a walk or a weekend in the country.
Three woody fragrances in our catalogue share many of its materials: Drunk Lovers by Born To Stand Out brings together citrus, amber, sandalwood, vanilla, patchouli and vetiver; Gypsy Water by Byredo pairs bergamot, lemon, orris, pine needles, sandalwood and vanilla; Kashmir by Ormonde Jayne combines coriander, orris, rose, sandalwood and patchouli.
