Bottle drawn in the shade of the fragrance
Naxos
Concentration not disclosed
Sicilian lavender softened with honey and blond tobacco.
Naxos opens on a Mediterranean freshness: lemon, bergamot and lavender, threaded with incense. Very soon honey and cinnamon round out this aromatic opening, like late-afternoon sun.
The base, of tobacco leaf, tonka bean and vanilla, takes on a blond, caressing warmth, supported by a soft wood. A gourmand, elegant fougère, at once reassuring and sophisticated.

Naxos in detail
Xerjoff, a house from Turin, wants each fragrance to be "a work of art within a work of art", with opulent compositions and highly crafted bottles. Naxos belongs to the fougère family, but offers a warm reading of it, in which lavender meets honey and tobacco.
The official pyramid begins with a citrus, aromatic top: lemon, bergamot, lavender and a touch of incense. The heart is softer and spicier, with jasmine sambac, honey, cinnamon and cashmere wood. The base brings together vanilla, tobacco leaf and tonka bean, which give the whole an amber, gourmand roundness.
Naxos is worn in autumn and winter, by day or by night: at the office on a cold day, at a dinner, or for a quiet evening at home.
Three fougères in our catalogue come close: 1725 Casanova by Histoires de Parfums shares its bergamot, lavender and vanilla; Layton by Parfums de Marly also pairs bergamot, lavender and vanilla; Tenore by Sospiro takes up lavender and lemon.
