Ah Xerjoff....
Hello to the round,

since a statement to this effect would be too long, here is a short and crisp review!

I am someone who gives every fragrance a chance, but at least I test every fragrance 3x or 4x before I can say what useful and will, this times in advance.

I'm really a great friend of the house and I'll think I'll always be (personal memories) and in itself you can hardly reproach the house what (except possibly the price, but since I have a special opinion on), whether those now have really GOOD fancy fragrances, purely from the performance of some etc....

I'll start on a positive note, recently got at a larger exchange the as a restflakon as a supplement ... and you really have to say that the flacon (ua. the color) + lid are really MEGA and those harmonize together really 1a!

That in itself was it eigtl. already on positive aspects. He is in itself ok to good, no more and no less, BUT (my personal opinion) if I spend 235 € (list price), then I expect certain things in an upscale niche house. And whether you assume a certain performance, or a certain creativity, or at best both ;) .

I have to disappoint him unfortunately!

The fragrance is fresh - fruity and a slight spiciness and is slightly creamy - soft in the drydown. And he also comes ok on and off, BUT ultimately you go with a certain expectation of the thing ran and if you think at the end of the day hmmm... well..., since I somehow imagined / expected something else!

I'm glad that the bottle I got was only a restflakon, because even if I like the brand, I can say NE do not buy the and save you the GOOD money.

And now a nice day / evening or always you read this review, LG the Benny

Agreeable fresh blend, albeit expensive
1986 is one of Xerjoff’s most recent releases and is a very agreeable fresh blend of green tea, mandarin, cardamom, and orange blossom. It’s a classic case of “what’s not to like?” as the fragrance is perfectly wearable for anyone—not too sharp to be off-putting, not too watery to be boring—yet does not test any boundaries or push any norms. I think it balances the tea, citrus, and floral aspects well, with just enough cardamom in the background to keep things interesting. I feel like I would mainly be in inclined to wear it on a summer day or when relaxing around the house. It’s an easy winner, as I sometimes say.

1986 was released as part of Xerjoff’s “Spray to Help” initiative to support the Piedmontese Foundation for Cancer Research, established in 1986, and is currently sold only through the Xerjoff universe website for €197 (for 50ml), which translates roughly to $242 US, with shipping on top of that, I believe.

I find the price steep for the creation so part of the motivation in buying it has to be supporting its mission, as there are many comparable fresh fragrances that are more affordable. For example, Anthony Hopkins’ AH Eau de Parfum supports “No Kid Hungry” with a more modest $75 bottle (that is 100ml).

Still, I like 1986 overall and it’s worth trying if an agreeable albeit pricey freshie is in your wheelhouse, particularly to support a good cause in Italy.

Something is missing. A base note I guess! Reminds me of the Tom Fords I wear at the gym like sole positano acqua. Gives a bitter freshness!

Straight on boring, longevity is poor too. They could have done so much moe with those special charity releases. Feels commercial

1986 is citrusy, sweet, aromatic, a bit green with an aquatic feel. It's like a fresh, floral breeze from the sea with mandarin and cardamom
