400
Xerjoff is an Italian niche house known for complex, artistic compositions that often draw inspiration from literature, history, and personal narratives. 400, released in 2018, is part of their signature lineup and exemplifies the brand's approach to layered fragrance design.
400 opens with a bright citrus burst of bergamot, bitter orange, and mandarin, immediately sweetened by honey and a woody undertone. The heart softens into a creamy white floral arrangement anchored by orange blossom and rose, with white tobacco and ylang-ylang adding depth and a slightly spiced character. The base settles into a warm, earthy foundation of cedar, patchouli, and vetiver, rounded out by vanilla that ties the composition together without overwhelming it. The overall profile is a balanced sweet-woody-floral that feels both refined and approachable.
This works best for those drawn to nuanced florals with a honeyed sweetness and woody backbone, making it equally suited to warmer seasons and cooler months depending on your skin chemistry. It's versatile enough for daily wear but has enough complexity to reward closer inspection. If you gravitate toward The Romantic, The Hedonist, or The Heirloom, 400 deserves a test strip.
