A masterpiece of the senses
What a symphony.
The Xerjoff Symphonium typically comes in a finely lined, white leather box. The bottle bears a beautiful opal. Simply beautiful.
The fragrance itself is incredibly complex, superbly created and yet completely rounded and authentic thanks to this unique composition.
Freshly sprayed on, the Symphonium starts with a great orange. Here you can smell a mix of fruit and slightly bitter peel. Both are absolutely realistic and wonderfully subtle. The chocolate enters the stage immediately. It starts out bittersweet, but turns into a fine milk chocolate after a few hours.
Roughly speaking, the opening of Symphonium can be described as an extremely high-quality and luxurious Jaffa Cake. This mix of chocolate and orange actually comes very close to jelly cookies, but is of course many times more beautiful, elegant and sophisticated.
The fragrance has a clear presence, but is not screamingly loud. You are pleasantly noticed and always in a positive way. The fragrance is of course very unisex.
In the DD, which sets in on my skin after 8 hours, the fragrance becomes creamier and sweeter. The dark chocolate becomes milk chocolate and the slightly bitter orange combines with vanilla and reminds me of a very luxurious bath foam. Again, this smells absolutely elegant and mouth-watering.
A fantastic fragrance created with love and dedication. Super wearable, unisex and something very special. I am very happy to have bought a bottle after a larger sample.
Definitely try it out!
P.s.: You can't really smell the oud (which is probably used in very large quantities for the fragrance) as oud. All the ingredients are interwoven and a perfectly rounded blend.
A symphony to fall in love with... or to bite into :).
