Apollonia

Xerjoff Apollonia dupe, inspired by the original

Xerjoff Apollonia, from the exclusive Shooting Stars collection, is a soft, refined powdery floral built around iris and white flowers, quietly luxurious in the house’s style. Our interpretation carries that character in a long lasting Eau de Parfum, made in the EU.

The Story Behind the Scent

Xerjoff is an Italian house known for pairing the finest raw materials with a very high concentration of oils, and its Shooting Stars line is where it explores more artistic, wearable ideas. Apollonia is one of the gentler compositions, a study in soft, powdery elegance rather than bold statement.

A delicate white flower opens it clean and airy, iris and soft florals give a powdery, slightly cosmetic heart in the best sense, and a base of musk and white musk keeps it smooth and skin like. It smells refined and comforting, like fine powder and clean skin, the kind of quiet luxury that reveals itself up close.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

We do not claim this is identical, because no interpretation is. What we have built follows the same powdery floral signature of the original, rebuilt at up to 40% perfume oil so it projects clearly early on and lingers longer than a typical spray. A little goes a long way.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a soft, powdery, refined floral. It works year round, day or evening, and wears as a gentle unisex fragrance.
