Mediterranean fruit, sun-warmed and unapologetically radiant. Erba Pura by Xerjoff is radiant luxury in fragrance form. Sparkling Sicilian citrus, luscious Mediterranean fruits, creamy vanilla, sensual musk and glowing amber blend into a scent that feels vibrant, addictive and unforgettable. Bold sophistication with irresistible presence.

The Story

Erba Pura is part of Xerjoff's Vibe collection, each fragrance of which is presented as a mood to match the occasion. Its character is Mediterranean from the first spray: Sicilian orange and Calabrian bergamot at the top, a fruit accord of the region at the heart. It was created in 2019 by perfumer Christian Carbonnel.

How It Smells

Opening
Bright, juicy and immediately addictive: a vibrant burst of Sicilian orange, Calabrian bergamot and lemon. It feels like luxury fruit served in the Mediterranean sun, sparkling citrus with instant energy and elegance, bold, sweet and attention-grabbing from the first spray.

Heart
The fragrance turns richer and smoother around a signature Mediterranean fruits accord. Many people perceive tropical fruits such as mango, melon or mixed exotic fruit, giving a lush fruity heart that is playful yet upscale and responsible for Erba Pura's crowd-pleasing identity.

Dry Down
Warm, creamy and long-lasting, with white musk, Madagascar vanilla and amber. It settles into a musky, sweet cloud that smells clean, seductive and extremely noticeable. Bright at first, sensual later.

Cooling mint, sparkling lemon, aromatic herbs, soft lavender, sensual musk and clean vervain create a scent that feels vibrant, refined and unforgettable: crisp luxury with effortless athletic elegance.

The Story

Xerjoff, the Turin-based Italian house, is an official sponsor of the Nitto ATP Finals tennis event held in its home city, and created a fragrance for it. Torino 21 celebrates the accelerated atmosphere of the 2021 edition and the partnership between the tournament and Turin, which the founder, Sergio Momo, calls a turning point for the city. It is a vigorously energetic perfume that transports the wearer to the tennis courts.

How It Smells

Opening
Bright, crisp and instantly invigorating, with mint, lemon, basil and thyme. It feels like fresh morning air after a luxury shower: icy mint and sparkling citrus wrapped in aromatic green herbs.

Heart
Smoother and more refined. Blackcurrant, rosemary, lavender and jasmine create a green aromatic heart with a soft fruity nuance, while the mint feels creamier and more elegant rather than sharp.

Dry Down
Clean, airy and addictive, with musk and vervain giving a polished, skin-like finish. It smells energetic and effortlessly stylish: fresh without ever smelling generic.

Clean luxury in motion: sparkling citrus, soft florals and a smooth, musky-woody hush. Vibrato is a luminous, polished Eau de Parfum from Sospiro, composed by perfumer Christian Provenzano. It captures the harmony between sparkling freshness and smooth, musky depth, opening with vibrant citrus and delicate florals before an aromatic heart and a clean woody-musky base. Sophisticated yet highly wearable, it is a luxurious freshness that feels elevated rather than simple.

The Story

Sospiro draws on classical music, and Vibrato is described as capturing the energy and movement of a musical vibrato. It is an aromatic, citrus-and-spice composition with soft woods, created by Christian Provenzano.

How It Smells

Opening
A burst of juicy grapefruit and bergamot, bright and slightly tart, with jasmine and magnolia already smoothing the edges.

Erba Pura Magica is a radiant and addictive reinterpretation of the iconic Erba Pura DNA—richer, smoother, and more indulgent. Created by master perfumer Christian Provenzano, this fragrance elevates the signature fruity-musky profile with a deeper, more sensual twist.

A vibrant blend of citrus and luscious fruits opens the composition, immediately bright and uplifting. As it evolves, balsamic warmth and soft florals add elegance, while the base reveals a luxurious fusion of caramel, amber, musk, and woods—creating a scent that feels both playful and refined.

Magnetic, smooth, and unmistakably luxurious, Erba Pura Magica is designed for those who want a bolder, sweeter, more addictive version of a crowd-favorite profile.

How It Smells

Erba Pura Magica opens with a burst of juicy fruits and sparkling citrus—bright, sweet, and immediately attention-grabbing.

Very quickly, what sets it apart appears: a creamy caramel warmth that blends into the fruits, making the scent feel richer and more indulgent than the original.

As it dries down, it becomes smooth, musky, and slightly woody, with amber and cedar adding depth while keeping the fragrance soft and wearable.

Golden luxury in fragrance form. Erba Gold by Xerjoff is a radiant Eau de Parfum of sparkling citrus, luscious fruits, warm spice, creamy vanilla and sensual musk, a scent of vibrant sophistication with a rich Mediterranean glow.

The Story

Erba Gold began in 2016 as a limited edition of Xerjoff's bestseller Erba Pura, first offered exclusively at Selfridges in a velvety yellow bottle. It later joined the main Xerjoff collection in a lacquered yellow bottle, and is now available worldwide. Many wearers find it more natural and less sharp than Erba Pura, with the polished style that marks the house.

How It Smells

Opening
Bright, juicy and instantly luxurious: Amalfi lemon, Brazilian orange, Calabrian bergamot and ginger. It feels sparkling, tropical and energetic, like expensive citrus served chilled in the sun.

Heart
More playful and addictive. Green apple, melon and pear give a creamy, tropical juiciness, while cloves, Guatemalan cardamom and cinnamon keep it refined and grown-up.

Dry Down
Warm and smooth, with white musk, amber, Madagascan vanilla and woods. It settles into a creamy musky base that feels clean, seductive and expensive: bright in the opening, sensual in the finish.

The Story

Torino 22 was created to celebrate the Nitto ATP Finals in Turin, the second release in Xerjoff's Torino series, which ties the house, founded by Turin native Sergio Momo, to men's tennis. Released in late 2022, it is its own scent rather than a flanker of Torino21.

The fragrance that makes you smile. La Danza delle Libellule by Nobile 1942 is a fruity, gourmand Eau de Parfum of bergamot and red apple, cinnamon and cocoa, resting on vanilla, cedar and musk. It is created according to aromatherapy principles, for a pampering effect on the hardest days, and was composed by Robertet.

The Story

“The Dance of the Dragonflies” is an operetta by Franz Lehar, and the name is a kind of invitation to take life a little less seriously.

In that spirit, it brings all the lightness necessary to soothe even the most troubled hearts. The house gives it the perfume code of afternoon.

A light, fresh and fruity start of bergamot and red apple.

The Story

A burst of tart, juicy blackcurrant that many people describe as blueberry-like and mouthwatering.

The ocean in its rawest form. Megamare by Orto Parisi is a dense, woody marine fragrance: bright citrus, calone and seaweed over cedar, ambroxan and musk. Powerful, untamed and boldly artistic, it leaves a tidal wave of presence.

The Story

Composed by Alessandro Gualtieri for Orto Parisi, Megamare is an olfactory contemplation of the sea, treated as something intense rather than merely fresh. The brand frames it as a salty sweetness, shiny, inaccessible and cold, evoking horizons, depths and eternity.

How It Smells

Opening
Like a burst of ocean air, sharp with bergamot and lemon, salty, mineralic and intensely aquatic. This is not a soft beach scent but crashing waves on dark rock, with a bold, metallic edge.

Heart
The marine accord turns darker and more mysterious. Calone, seaweed and mineral nuances give almost haunting realism, while cedar keeps it dry so it never reads as simply watery.

Dry Down
Massive and enduring. Ambroxan, cedar and musk bring salty amber warmth and lingering ocean minerals, aggressive, artistic and addictive for the right wearer.

A sting of bergamot that melts into skin. Bergamask by Orto Parisi is brightness colliding with instinct. Explosive bergamot and raw, sensual musk create a fragrance that feels fresh, provocative and impossible to forget. Bold, magnetic and unapologetically alive.

The Story

Bergamask was released in 2014 by Orto Parisi, the house of perfumer Alessandro Gualtieri. The house calls it a perfume extract that reveals itself very slowly, not within hours, a sting that cuts through everything. The play is on bergamot and mask: Calabrian bergamot's freshness set against the intensity of musk, the pull between attraction and repulsion.

How It Smells

Opening
An explosive burst of bright bergamot, sharp, sparkling and almost blindingly fresh, like freshly cut citrus peel sprayed into the air. Loud, electric and unforgettable, with something deeper already waiting beneath.

Heart
The fragrance transforms dramatically. Clean citrus melts into warm, skin-like musk, a sensual contrast between freshness and raw intimacy. The bergamot keeps glowing in the background while the musks become richer, dirtier and more animalic depending on skin chemistry.

Dry Down
Huge, sensual and long-lasting: radiant citrus traces fused to warm skin musk for hours. It smells primal, sexy, clean, dirty and luxurious all at once.

Cool mint, bright green and the easy confidence of California. Etat Libre d'Orange You Or Someone Like You is a crisp, modern Eau de Parfum that blends invigorating mint with grapefruit, soft rose and clean musks. Uplifting and easy to wear, it was composed by perfumer Caroline Sabas and launched in 2017.

The Story

Created in collaboration with writer Chandler Burr, the fragrance takes its name from his novel set in Los Angeles, a city of dreamers chasing fame, love and fortune. Rather than capturing the smell of the city, it is the scent his fictional protagonist, an Englishwoman in the Hollywood Hills, might wear: contemporary, polished and a little detached. It captures freedom, sunshine and understated confidence in the unconventional spirit of Etat Libre d'Orange.

How It Smells

Opening
A burst of cool mint, bright, crisp and instantly refreshing, with a citrusy-green brightness from grapefruit and bergamot that keeps it lively.

Heart
A soft rose adds a gentle, airy elegance without becoming heavy or overly floral, alongside blackcurrant and anise.

Dry Down
Clean and smooth, with soft musks that make it feel effortless and wearable.

Endless summer, drifting from a hammock in the sun. Flying South from Floraïku Paris is a unisex eau de parfum of sparkling Makuwa melon, sunlit hibiscus and soft musk, where lemon and mandarin essences brighten a creamy coconut opening and amber warms the finish.

The Story

Flying South lingers on the skin like sun-drenched hours when a hammock awaits. Floraïku frames it as a warm escape beyond the seas, where greylag geese follow the southern winds and melon and hibiscus evoke a relaxed, endless summer. Time softens into sweetness and desire, a fragrant reverie that fades like the last golden rays of the day.

How It Smells

Opening
Lemon and mandarin essences meet a coconut accord, then the luminosity of Makuwa melon, a sparkle that gently clings to the air, full of promise.

Hibiscus blooms in radiant sunlight: carmine, vibrant and sensual, releasing a floral warmth that feels both fresh and intoxicating, supported by the clean woody facet of Georgywood.
