Est. 2007 · Turin, Italy
Xerjoff is an Italian niche perfume house founded in Turin in 2007 by Sergio Momo, known for opulent, richly blended fragrances built from high-grade raw materials and instantly recognisable bottles capped with the pharaonic Deshret crown. Its catalogue spans the headline XJ line and the revived 19th-century Casamorati 1888 collection, with modern icons such as Naxos, Erba Pura and Alexandria II.
Maximalist Italian luxury: dense, long-lasting compositions that lean opulent and gourmand-adjacent, from honeyed tobacco and bright fruity-citrus to resinous oud and amber. Loud, generous and unmistakably crafted to be noticed.
Signature notes
Xerjoff was founded in Turin in 2007 by Sergio Momo, a Turin-born painter and designer who studied perfumery in Grasse before turning his eye for graphics toward fragrance. The house name fuses 'Joff' — a childhood nickname — with the 'Sir' his London colleagues used, and from the first 17/17 Stone Label collection it set out to pair rare materials with collectible, jewel-like presentation.
The brand's signature flacon cap is modelled on the Deshret, the Egyptian Red Crown, inspired by the Egyptian Museum in Turin and designed by co-founder Dominique Salvo. Early limited collections embellished with semi-precious stones, meteorite fragments and gold-plated caps established Xerjoff's place at the luxurious, artistic end of niche perfumery.
In 2009 Momo revived Casamorati, a historic Bologna perfume house first registered in 1888, recreating its Art Nouveau spirit and original flacon design as a line within Xerjoff. Operating as the Xerjoff Group since 2018, the house now offers well over 180 scents and keeps most of its creative and production chain in-house.
Xerjoff fragrances are bold, concentrated and long-lasting, so a decant is the smartest way in: try a 2ml or 5ml before committing to a full bottle. Sampling lets you confirm projection suits your taste before investing at this tier.
For a warm, cool-weather signature, start with Naxos — honey, tobacco and vanilla read beautifully in autumn and winter and on evenings out. If you want something bright and effusive for spring and summer or daytime compliments, Erba Pura is the radiant fruity-citrus pick.
Drawn to depth and oud? Alexandria II is the plush, oriental-woody choice for special occasions. A small decant set across the XJ and Casamorati lines is an easy way to find which Xerjoff temperament — honeyed, fruity or resinous — is truly yours before scaling up.
To buy Xerjoff samples in Europe you have a few honest routes: official Xerjoff boutiques and authorised retailers for full bottles, or Scento for authenticated Xerjoff decants in 2ml, 5ml, 8ml. On Scento, Xerjoff samples start at €7.90 — and a 2ml decant is only about 2–4% of a 50–100ml bottle, so you can try the scent properly before committing to a full size.

Popular Xerjoff fragrances on Scento — start with a 2ml decant before a full bottle.
Xerjoff is an Italian niche house from Turin known for opulent, high-quality, long-lasting fragrances and collectible bottles topped with a pharaonic crown cap. It is especially associated with honeyed-tobacco Naxos, fruity-citrus Erba Pura and the revived 19th-century Casamorati 1888 line.
Naxos is the most popular entry point — a warm, sweet blend of honey, tobacco and vanilla that suits autumn and winter. If you prefer something bright and fresh, Erba Pura is the radiant fruity-citrus alternative. Trying both as 2ml or 5ml decants is the easiest way to decide.
There's no single Xerjoff scent — the house spans honeyed tobacco and vanilla (Naxos), bright fruity citrus (Erba Pura) and deep rose-and-oud orientals (Alexandria II). The common thread is richness: dense, generous compositions built from premium materials with strong projection and longevity.
Xerjoff sits at the luxury end of niche perfumery, prized for material quality, blending and presentation, with a devoted following for scents like Naxos and Erba Pura. Because the fragrances are an investment, sampling a decant first is the sensible way to judge whether the performance and style justify a full bottle for you.
Yes. Every Xerjoff decant is hand-decanted from a sealed, original retail bottle — never a clone, dupe or inspired-by version. The original batch code is printed on the label and shown on your order page, so you can verify the provenance yourself.
As a rough guide, a perfume atomizer gives about 10–15 sprays per millilitre, so a 2ml Xerjoff sample is roughly 20–30 sprays, a 5ml about 50–75, and an 8ml about 80–120. Exact counts vary with the atomizer and how heavily you spray. Available sizes: 2ml, 5ml, 8ml.
No extra customs for EU orders. Scento ships Xerjoff decants from within the EU to 27 European markets, so EU buyers pay no import duties or customs charges and usually receive their order in 1–5 business days. Orders to non-EU European countries may be subject to local import VAT set by your country, not by Scento.
Buy a decant to test or rotate a scent, and a full bottle once you know you love it. A 2ml decant is only about 2–4% of a 50–100ml bottle, so it lets you wear Xerjoff for days before committing to full-bottle price. For sealed presentation or gifting, an official boutique or authorised retailer is the better route.
XJ 1861 Naxos and Erba Pura are the Xerjoff fragrances our members reach for most, so they are the easiest place to start. If you want to explore further, XJ 1861 Naxos, Erba Pura, Alexandria II make a strong first set in affordable decant sizes.
