Renaissance Xj 1861

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Xerjoff Renaissance

Renaissance, from Xerjoff’s XJ 1861 collection, is a fresh, refined citrus woody scent, and our version keeps that elegant character, built around the same notes with real depth.

The Story Behind the Scent

Xerjoff built Renaissance, part of the XJ 1861 collection, as a fresh citrus woody scent, pairing a sparkling citrus opening with a minty floral heart over a clean musky cedar base for a refined, elegant character.

Our interpretation follows that character, keeping the balance of the original and building it at a high perfume oil concentration so it lasts on skin.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original is a luxury eau de parfum sold at high pricing. We build ours at a high perfume oil concentration and sell direct, so you get the same character for a fraction of the price.

It suits anyone who loves a fresh citrus woody scent and wants a luxury style fragrance without the high price.
