Xerjoff Naxos Sample
Naxos: test it before the full bottle
Xerjoff makes Naxos, a perfume you can get to know here in a small vial. What it contains is not on record with us, so the description stops at the facts we have. Trying it as a sample first means your decision rests on wearing it, not on a description. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine.

On the skin
How it unfolds
-
No note list on record
The notes of Naxos are not in our files. That is not a judgement about the perfume, only about what we can state with certainty. Give it time to settle before you judge it. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.
-
Before it can be filled
This sample is listed on request, which means it is not filled yet. Use the form on this page to let us know you would like Naxos, and we note it. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.
-
The vial
The decant holds the same liquid as the full bottle of Xerjoff Naxos, moved into a small glass spray vial by FragranceGems and labelled by us. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
When to wear Naxos is not on record with us; test it on the kind of day you would actually wear it. Use it the way you would use a full bottle, on a normal day. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression.
Who it is for
Our record does not say for whom Xerjoff Naxos was made. If you are choosing a gift, testing it yourself first tells you what you are giving. People who tire of scents quickly do well with small sizes. Anyone who reacts strongly to certain notes is wise to test on skin first.
Why try Xerjoff Naxos as a sample first
Trying before owning saves shelf space and regret. We decant from the original bottle and label the vial ourselves. Xerjoff does not make or endorse these samples; it is not an official brand sample. Write down what you notice after a few minutes and again after lunch, and you will see how it moves.

Frequently asked
Is this the same perfume as the full bottle?
Yes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Xerjoff Naxos and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Xerjoff Naxos, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Will Naxos be the same on me as on someone else?
Probably not exactly. Skin, weather and the amount you apply all change how a perfume comes across, which is the reason to wear Xerjoff Naxos yourself before deciding.
The brand
About Xerjoff
Xerjoff was founded in Turin in 2007 by Sergio Momo and Dominique Salvo and describes its own approach as artistic, maximalist and opulent: every scent a work of art inside another work of art. The range is organised in collections, from 1861, which marks the unification of Italy, to Join The Club, whose notes are kept secret. With perfumes this rich, and some whose notes are not disclosed at all, a 10 ml decant is the sensible first step.
- Turin, 2007: the house is started by Sergio Momo and Dominique Salvo
- The cap takes its shape from the Deshret, the Egyptian Red Crown
- Collections include 1861, Join The Club, Shooting Stars, Oud Stars and Blends

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
