Erba Pura XerJoff 2013
Vor etwa drei Jahren ging ich, ohne etwas über diese Yerba Pura zu wissen, morgens vor der Arbeit ins Atrium. Ich weiß nicht mehr, ob der Berater es angepriesen hat oder ob ich es selbst testen wollte. Jedenfalls habe ich es auf meine Handgelenke und meinen Hals gestreut und bin zur Arbeit gegangen. Unser Büro befindet sich im ersten Stock, und im Erdgeschoss ist eine Papa John's Pizzeria.
Ich sitze also da, berühre niemanden und arbeite. Ich verfluche mich im Geiste - warum habe ich dieses Parfüm getragen?
Unser Regisseur kommt zu mir:
- "Oh Gott, das ist unmöglich, Papa Johns tötet wieder Kakerlaken, du hättest mich warnen sollen.
- Es ist unmöglich zu arbeiten, lasst uns nach Hause gehen oder wir werden alle hier sterben.
Und alle gingen nach Hause.
Papa John's hat an diesem Tag keine Kakerlaken getötet.
Erba pura gab uns den Tag frei.
Zu Hause fragte mich mein Mann: "Hast du dir Frostbeulen eingefangen?
Wenn ich lese, dass ein Duft Komplimente bekommt, muss ich immer an diese Geschichte denken.

Fruity chemical warfare
I made the mistake of spraying this on myself before sniffing it on a blotter. This perfume traumatized me and taught me that nondescript “fruit” or “floral” notes are huge red flags. It smells awful, nauseating even. But then again, “fruity” is one of my least favorite perfume descriptors.

A fragrance that smells bad is fine as long as we can wash it off. This got on my shirt and survived multiple laundry cycles. For the next few weeks, every time I put on that shirt I was reminded of my error. No perfume needs this level of longevity. I’d give negative score if I could. You have been forewarned.

Erba Summer!
I know how many people think this leans more feminine, but guys I enjoy this one so much. How can you hate fruits,musk,vanilla? This is a coctail in a perfume bottle
Smells amazing from the opening till the drydown. It opens very loud with juicy fruits dries down to a fruity coctail mixed with vanilla & musk which makes it a little bit more creamy. Compliments to the roof, no one is ever going to say that you smell bad. People can smell you from 3 meters away so use with caution
Bottle looks super amazing velvety with gold touches that is what I expected from Xerjoff Quality
For all the people that base their opinions on fragrantica comments, please do try this one by yourself and let the magic hyptnotize you.
For me this is a 10/10 summer banger !

This scent is a fruuit basket in a bottle!
Erba pura is a really sweet fruity scents with a crazy amout of fruits but sadly i cant find any of the featuring. The scent is nuclear as it lasts for almost a whole day on my skin and has a crazy sillage. When i wore this scent i recieved compliments but also negative comments... The scent is too strong for a lot of people but great for the perfume lovers who likes fruit. 20 hours longevity and very sleek bottle. Scentwise it is good but too strong on the fruits for my liking.

Overripe fruit
I really wanted to love this, but could not get over the syrupy sweet ripe fruit notes. It was giving brown banana, hard. I will say, much to my detriment, that this juice has serious staying power. I sprayed a small amount on my forearm around dinner time and it was going strong the next morning. I'm sure it smells great on some people, but not me.

The horror, who can wear this without suffocating? My friend sprayed her hand and she immediately went to wash it off, but it was impossible

The opening is nuclear, fruity and sweet, cloying and overwhelming. After 2 hours, although linear, it becomes bearable but still synthetic.

Not complex but very potent! Opens up with peach and mango and ends with some musk. Mouthwatering! You'll be noticed a mile away!!!

Unfathomably potent assault of bizzare tropical tutti-frutti flanked by an assault of nauseating white, powdery musk. "Me! Me! Me!" perfume.

A green/blue fragrance that’s sweeter and more fruity than other of the genre. I’d say it projects unisex, leaning towards the masculine.

Sharp, sticky sweet, mindbogglingly synthetic, cloying. Smells what artificial sweetener tastes like. Lasts forever, projects without mercy.
