40 Knots - An unobtrusive masterpiece by Xerjoff
When I started to take an interest in niche fragrances a few years ago, I quickly came across names like Xerjoff and Tom Ford. At the time, I ordered a few samples, including 40 Knots, which initially left me rather cold. My expectations, shaped by a preference for clear, salty sea scents (such as Light Blue, which I probably had in mind when I saw the scents listed) were put to the test by my first perception of roses and wood. To be honest, I found it a bit boring and meaningless.
But as life goes, fate handed me another sample of 40 Knots years later. This time my reaction was completely different. Perhaps it was maturity or simply the change in my own preferences, but suddenly I saw 40 Knots as a masterpiece. The creamy Nivea note, enriched with a subtle blend of sea salt, water and a hint of amber, won me over completely.
What particularly fascinates me about 40 Knots is its versatility. Whether in the office, at sports, at a wedding or on a date - this fragrance always fits. It has the rare ability to present itself unobtrusively and leaves an impression that is more reminiscent of a natural radiance than an applied perfume.
In direct comparison with Ambre Nuit, which in my collection is reserved for spicier and sweeter moments, 40 Knots stands out for its everyday suitability and unobtrusiveness. The bottle itself is a small work of art and stands proudly on my shelf, a symbol of the quality that makes Xerjoff so unique.
The price-performance ratio is surprisingly good, especially when you consider that you can get hold of this fragrance at a good price from time to time. I give it a clear recommendation for anyone looking for a fragrance that cuts a fine figure both in everyday life and on special occasions.
In conclusion, 40 Knots by Xerjoff was a real discovery for me. A fragrance that made me change my mind and proved to be a valuable addition to my collection. A masterpiece that shows how complex and surprising perfume can be.

Is it the perfect fragrance? A pseudo-scientific observation.
I'll have to write a longer review after all...
