Nichane

Named after the Greek island, Naxos is Xerjoff's tribute to Mediterranean honey, tobacco, and the art of Italian perfumery. This is a gourmand masterpiece that manages to be both incredibly rich and surprisingly wearable. Naxos opens with a stunning honey and bergamot combination that's immediately intoxicating - it's sweet but sophisticated, edible but elegant. The lavender in the opening adds an aromatic freshness that prevents the honey from becoming cloying.

The heart reveals the star of the show: tobacco leaf blended with warm cinnamon and cardamom, creating a spicy-sweet complexity that's utterly mesmerizing. The base features vanilla, tonka bean, and cashmeran, adding a creamy, almost woody warmth that grounds the sweetness. What makes Naxos legendary is its incredible balance - it's a honey-tobacco fragrance that doesn't smell like a pipe shop or a candy store. Instead, it smells like luxury incarnate - expensive, inviting, and unforgettable.

The performance is nuclear (10-12 hours easily), and the compliments are endless. This is Xerjoff's best-seller for good reason - it's the fragrance that converted thousands of people into niche perfume enthusiasts.
