"A ginger latte please!"
And that's supposed to taste good? Strange mixture, I thought to myself. But well, pineapple on pizza tastes good too.
(He didn't say that...!)
Besides, the Cafè Xerjoff is known for its sometimes unusual specialties.
It certainly looks interesting how it is served: the individual layers of ingredients are not completely mixed. There's no spoon, you're supposed to sip your way through the individual layers.
I look around uncertainly. Some of the other visitors are enjoying opulent cocktails with all kinds of ripe fruit, others have ice-cold drinks with mint sprigs and lemon slices in front of them.
The drink of my choice seems rather inconspicuous, but perhaps I should try it first before judging.
I sip carefully from the thin top layer and immediately taste a refreshing, tart mixture of citrus fruits and a hint of ginger.
Wow! I smack my lips a few times to dissect the ingredients on my tongue. No sugar for miles, no sweetness at all. Really delicious.
The next sip leads me to the actual main part of my order - a surprisingly well-balanced blend of ginger and black coffee, with a low concentration of citrus fruits and - at least that's what it says on the menu - tobacco blossom. I wouldn't have ordered it if I could have mixed the ingredients myself, but it works brilliantly (see the pineapple on the pizza...) The delicious and clearly perceptible coffee makes the drink a pleasure not only in the height of summer. Spring, fall, office, evening - I could order this anytime.
Then comes the crema at the bottom. Huh? At the bottom?
I don't know how they did it, but the more I sip with relish, the more the brew is rounded off by soft, creamy musk and amber. Nice and smooth.
I lean back contentedly and enjoy my drink, but then choke hard when I'm served the bill. It's almost cheeky for such a small (but still very pretty) glass.
But well, you don't treat yourself to a treat like this every day.
Tomorrow we'll just have Tk pizza again, you know what kind.

Fresh citrus tobacco? Uden Overdose makes it possible.
For me, Uden Overdose is a very special mixture of notes that were a "safe" bank for me and notes that I rarely try out.

Xerjoff has masterfully brought these notes together here and combined them into an absolute fragrance experience. The initial freshness is gentle, just like the citrus note. Not intrusive, no toilet stone... simply a gentle, almost tender freshness, which is complemented after a very short time by the spiciness of a fine tobacco and coffee note. The amber base also comes through perceptibly for me and gives the ensemble something rounded that I personally find very appealing.

A real everyday fragrance that can prove itself in all situations, I have worn it in a wide variety of situations and never had the feeling that it would have been inappropriate, even if there might have been a more appropriate choice at some moments.
Definitely a fragrance that inspires me and that I feel is mentioned far too rarely when someone lists great Xerjoff fragrances, but that could also be because there are simply so many really good breakers from this house.

The "Uden" for special occasions I an everyday fragrance with a special coffee-tobacco character!
The Uden Overdose caught my attention because of the beautiful bottle; the reviews were also good; I saw it and bought it! Now, what is the Uden Overdose actually like? ... and how redundant is it to the Uden?
Questions that we will now address:

- The Uden Overdose starts with a similar, tamed and well-balanced citrus as the Uden. Here, the two fragrances are very similar, fresh but not overtly fresh (e.g. as pungently minty as Torino21 ).

- Then comes the part where the music plays, or rather where the Uden Overdose differentiates itself. Now a tobacco blossom is added; yes, tobacco blossom, not tobacco. This does not make the fragrance smoky, but gives it a bright tobacco DNA. In addition, a little tamed coffee kicks in! A great part of the fragrance, which then ends in an ambery musk base.

Overall, a beautiful and special everyday fragrance that is intended for those for whom the normal Uden is too "boring". For me, however, this was unfortunately less so, even though I appreciate the art behind it and rate the fragrance as good; somehow this overdose of bright tobacco blossom and the accompanying spiciness bothered me a little.

However, for many it will probably be a great daily! In any case, I recommend that you test the fragrance for 1-2 days to really find out whether you like it in the medium to long term.

The fragrance that gets even the quietest colleague talking
Not a lengthy review, just an anecdote about the scent from my life.
________________________________________________________________________________________________

It was a normal Tuesday at the office, gray like the coffee in my cup (With milk, hence gray. Is that really gray? Am I colorblind? Never mind.), when the unexpected happened. My work colleague - let's call him Mr. Silent - the man whose voice was as rare to hear as a compliment from the boss, did something incredible. He spoke. To me.

Mr. Schweigsam, known for preferring to choke rather than cough when others are in the room, suddenly stood next to my desk. His gaze, serious and penetrating, fixed on something indefinable in the air between us. Before I could ask him if everything was all right, he whispered: "What's the name of the scent you're wearing?"

I was speechless. Not only had Mr. Silent spoken, he had asked me about my perfume. My heart skipped a beat. Was this the moment when I would finally achieve office legend status?
"Xerjoff, Uden Overdose, probably doesn't mean anything to you, does it?" I replied with a smile that could barely conceal my inner glee.

"It smells... interesting," he said, and for a tiny moment I saw something flash in his eyes that almost looked like excitement.

So there I was, at the center of an unexpected social exchange, thanks to a scent that could best be described as liquid ahoy sherbet apricot with a hint of lemon candy. A scent so powerful that it even broke through the mighty walls of Mr. Schweigsam's silence.

From that day on, nothing was the same. The legend of Uden Overdose - the perfume that got the quietest colleague talking - started doing the rounds. And me? I became known not only as the guy who smelled good, but also as the one who made the office a little more colorful.

Uden Overdose the better Uden ? e

It starts fresh, sparkling, spicy and quite quickly ginger and the tobacco blossom come to the fore, but to my taste the coffee could come through a little more here, which lingers gently in the background, followed by musk and amber.

Where can you wear this fragrance? Personally, I would recommend it for any occasion and any time of year.
Especially in the office, you make statements with it, but don't dock too much.
in summer, however, I would rather wear it in the evening, but everyone has to decide for themselves.

H/S is slightly better than the Uden! The fragrance radiates well for the first 3-4 hours.
the bottle is one of the more elaborate ones at Xerjoff.

The cool thing about the Shootingstar collection is the small splinter of a meteor shower, the authenticity of which is noted with an enclosed certificate and a production number in the lid.

Perfect as a gift, more suitable for a man.

In the opening, the tobacco flower reminds me of a lemony Versace The Dreamer. Drydown is a beautiful blend of ginger, sweet amber and musk.

Initially bright citric, this fresh spicy-floral aquatic Mid season fragrance slowly settles to a gentle creamy woody base. Male-oriented.

Citrus freshie with a strong dose of spiciness from ginger. Polite but assertive like something you would wear to a boardroom meeting
