Xerjoff is an Italian niche house founded by Carlo Pollizi in 1993, known for crafting elaborate, character-driven fragrances that often draw inspiration from art, literature, and personal narratives. The brand has built a reputation for unconventional compositions and meticulous ingredient sourcing.

Shooting Stars Shingl opens with a sharp, herbal top of anise, artemisia, basil, and bergamot that gives it an almost medicinal freshness. The heart settles into a spiced, earthy middle dominated by iris and patchouli, with rum and vetiver adding warmth and a slightly boozy edge. Amber and musk anchor the base with vanilla providing sweetness, creating a composition that sits solidly in amber-woody territory but with enough herbal bite to keep it from feeling conventional. The overall effect is grounded and somewhat austere, with an earthy sensuality that develops as it wears.

This is a fragrance for someone seeking depth over immediate seduction, best suited to cooler months or evening wear. It works particularly well on those drawn to textured, spiced florals with real personality. If you gravitate toward scents with substance and an unconventional edge, explore The Homesteader, The Romantic, and The Tactician.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified
Top · 0–30 min
Anise
Anise
Sweet, warm, and intensely licorice-like, anise seed has a Mediterranean, medicinal sweetness that is simultaneously familiar and distinctive. In perfumery anise adds a warm, aromatic depth that bridges spice and gourmand families. Used in oriental compositions and masculine fragrances to add a slightly unusual, warming sweetness.
Artemisia
Artemisia
The wormwood family, artemisia adds a dry, herbal, slightly bitter greenness that evokes wild Mediterranean hillsides and ancient apothecaries. It's the botanical that gives absinthe its distinctive aura. In perfumery it grounds compositions in something honest and slightly difficult, which makes them feel more real.
Basil
Basil
Sweet, spicy, and vividly herbal, basil has a green freshness with slightly anise-like and peppery facets that make it more complex than most culinary herbs. In perfumery it adds a lively, Mediterranean quality and pairs beautifully with citrus and woody notes. An underused note that rewards those who seek it out.
Bergamot
Bergamot
A sun-ripened Italian citrus with a brightness that goes beyond lemon, simultaneously tart, floral, and slightly spicy. It's the defining note of Earl Grey tea and the backbone of countless fresh colognes. Perfumers love it as an opener because it lifts the entire composition without overpowering what follows.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Iris
Iris
One of perfumery's most prized and expensive ingredients, iris has a powdery, cool, almost carrot-like richness that is hard to describe and impossible to mistake. It's simultaneously earthy and refined, like the inside of an old Parisian couture house. Iris root (orris) adds quiet luxury to anything it touches.
Patchouli
Patchouli
Dense, earthy, and darkly sweet, patchouli is the scent of damp soil and dried herbs with an almost chocolatey richness. It polarizes people because in high concentrations it's overwhelming, but as a supporting note it adds depth and longevity that almost nothing else can match. The backbone of countless oriental and chypre fragrances.
Rum
Rum
Sweet, slightly smoky, and warm, the distilled essence of sugarcane adds a tropical, slightly boozy warmth to orientals and leather fragrances. It has a brown-sugar, molasses quality with a gentle spirit-like shimmer. Often found alongside tobacco and wood notes to create warm, convivial compositions.
Vetiver
Vetiver
Earthy, smoky, and complex, vetiver root is extracted from a grass native to India and has a scent that is simultaneously rooty, woody, and slightly lemony. It's one of perfumery's great base notes: tenacious, unisex, and endlessly adaptable. A fragrance built around vetiver feels grounded and deeply confident.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Amber
Amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Vanilla
Vanilla
Warm, sweet, and universally appealing, vanilla is to fragrance what salt is to cooking. Real vanilla is complex and slightly smoky, though most perfumery vanilla is synthetic and reads as clean, sweet, and creamy. It slows the evaporation of other notes and is the reason certain fragrances feel like a second skin.
