I bought a Xerjoff sampler for my husband and we were both blown away by this fragrance. It's hard to describe because there's a bit going on here. It has an initial burst of elegant citrus and then dries down to layers of fresh spicy, green, woody, subtle floral (not sweet) and aromatic notes. It definitely leans towards masculine, but I love wearing it too. I'm hooked. When you know you know.
