2023 · unisex

Xerjoff is the niche Italian house known for bold, artistic compositions and distinctive bottle design. Their fragrances tend toward distinctive character rather than conventional appeal, which Aridal, released in 2023, exemplifies.

Aridal opens with cypress and elemi providing a crisp, resinous top, then spices like nutmeg and pink pepper add warmth and slight bite. The heart settles into a creamy, soft-focus blend of cashmere wood and jasmine, grounded by earthy orris root and patchouli that prevent it from becoming too powdery. Dry wood, sandalwood, and papyrus in the base create an arid, slightly austere finish, with benzoin adding subtle sweetness. The overall composition balances woody and aromatic elements with a distinctive balsamic warmth that keeps it feeling refined rather than heavy.

Aridal works best for those seeking something with presence and depth, neither overtly fresh nor gourmand. It's versatile enough for everyday wear but has enough personality for someone exploring beyond mainstream fragrances. The scent aligns with The Homesteader, The Sensualist, and The Romantic profiles.

Fragrance Notescommunity verified
Top · 0–30 min
Cypress
Cypress
Dry, resinous, and slightly medicinal, cypress has a sharp, coniferous sharpness with a faintly smoky, pine-like quality. It evokes the tall, dark trees of Provence and Tuscany, austere, Mediterranean, and quietly beautiful. A grounding note that adds structure to woody and aquatic compositions.
Elemi
Elemi
Light, piney, and slightly citrusy resin from the Philippines, elemi is frankincense's more approachable, transparent cousin. It has a fresh, almost lemony sharpness alongside its resinous warmth, making it useful in both fresh and oriental compositions. A bridge between sharp and deep, fresh and warm.
Nutmeg
Nutmeg
Warm, woody, and softly spiced with a slight sweetness that makes it gentler than clove or pepper. Nutmeg adds a quiet, autumnal warmth to fragrances without sharpness. It blends seamlessly into woody and oriental bases, acting more as a supporting character than a lead note.
Pink Pepper
Pink Pepper
Fruity, slightly rosy, and gently spiced, pink pepper is softer and more aromatic than black pepper. It occupies a unique space between citrus, floral, and spice families, which makes it exceptionally versatile. You'll find it in contemporary fresh fragrances where it adds lift and personality without aggression.

Cashmere Wood
Cashmere Wood
Jasmine
Jasmine
Intoxicating, heady, and slightly animalic, jasmine is one of the few flowers that smells as rich in a bottle as it does climbing a garden wall at dusk. It has an almost fleshy, indolic quality that stops it reading as purely 'clean.' Jasmine is a workhorse in both feminine and masculine perfumery, adding depth and soul.
Orris Root
Orris Root
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.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Benzoin
Benzoin
Sweet, warm, and balsamic, benzoin resin smells like vanilla mixed with incense, with a powdery, slightly medicinal edge. It adds a comforting warmth and fixative quality to oriental fragrances, and blends beautifully with spices. Often used to smooth and round off sharp edges in complex base notes.
Dry Wood
Dry Wood
Papyrus
Papyrus
Sandalwood
Sandalwood
Creamy, smooth, and milky with a soft, skin-like warmth that clings beautifully. True Mysore sandalwood is one of perfumery's most precious ingredients, simultaneously wood and skin, never cold or sharp. It rounds off sharp edges in any composition and makes the wearer smell subtly, irresistibly warmer.
