Xerjoff 40 Knots Eau de Parfum is what happens when a yacht-club brief lands with a house that refuses to make a generic aquatic. The opening is bracing and almost mentholated -- crisp sea air and salt rather than the flat ozone note most marine scents settle for. Then it turns, and that is the surprise: warm, faintly powdery amber and wood take over, so the whole thing ends up comforting rather than cold. Performance is the other departure from the category, running eight to twelve hours where most aquatics fade by lunch. Solid blue-tinted glass, gold crown cap. Unisex, and genuinely year-round.
Product Features:
- Bracing salt-air opening that avoids the flat ozone note of most aquatic scents.
- Turns warm and faintly powdery as amber and wood take over from the sea breeze.
- Holds eight to twelve hours where aquatic fragrances usually fade before lunch.
- Solid blue-tinted glass flacon, tinted through rather than painted on the surface.
How to Use:
Two or three sprays on the neck and wrists is enough. Let it dry without rubbing, and give it half an hour before judging -- the shift from salt air to warm wood is the point, and the opening is not where it settles.
