Layla Xerjoff 2023

Layla by Xerjoff has fascinated me from the very beginning. The fragrance opens with a refreshing citrus note that offers a clear, zesty start. But as the first minutes pass, a wonderful floral heart note unfolds, presenting an elegant lightness with roses and jasmine. However, what truly makes Layla special is the subtle spice that gradually comes to the forefront. This spicy dimension gives the fragrance a certain depth and complexity without ever feeling too sharp or overwhelming. The gentle warmth of cinnamon or perhaps a hint of clove adds an interesting, almost mysterious twist that continually surprises me. This spice perfectly embraces the floral and woody notes, creating an exciting balance between freshness and depth. The vanillic and woody warmth of amber gives Layla a sensual richness that gently supports the spicy component while leaving a warm, pleasant feeling on the skin. It’s as if the fragrance offers a soft, spicy hug that remains present throughout the day without ever being intrusive. What I particularly appreciate about Layla is this perfect blend of floral, fresh, and spicy notes. It is a perfume that can be worn both in everyday life and on special occasions. The longevity is solid, and the sillage is so measured that the fragrance never comes across as overpowering.
