Why We Carry This

Accento is one of the few Xerjoff fragrances where the perfumer's name tells you something specific about the outcome. Ropion's iris work here is precise and cool, the citrus opening a deliberate contrast to the warm cedarwood base. It is the most refined composition in our Xerjoff selection.

Character

Accords: Fruity, Floral, Sweet, Powdery, Musk, Woody

Launched: 2014

Dominique Ropion's involvement gives Accento a structural precision that distinguishes it from Xerjoff's other releases. Lemon, bergamot, and mandarin in the opening are bright and unhurried, the citrus given space to develop before iris and jasmine take the heart. Rose adds fullness without overwhelming the iris, which is the delicate note holding the composition's center. Cedarwood and sandalwood in the base are clean and dry, musk giving the finish an intimate warmth that wears close to the skin through the day.
