Launched in 2015 as part of Xerjoff’s prestigious 1861 Collection, Naxos is inspired by the vibrant spirit of Sicily. It masterfully blends citrus brightness with refined floral warmth and a rich tobacco‑amber base—delivering luxury, complexity, and memorable depth.
Naxos opens with fresh citrus and aromatic lavender—bright, crisp, and inviting. The heart introduces warm honey, spicy cinnamon, lush jasmine, and creamy cashmeran. The base envelopes in rich tobacco, smooth tonka bean, and velvety vanilla—crafting a sensual and luxurious dry-down reminiscent of Sicilian elegance and charm.

“One of my favorite Xerjoff releases; smooth, creamy, luxurious, smoky, and just straight‑up addictive.”
