MV Agusta XerJoff 2020

First of all: I think this fragrance is very polarizing and is not right for everyone. Definitely not a blind buy and not for every occasion.

I've had 2 samples so far and worn both sparingly - because performance is brutal anyway - and frequently (a good 12-15 times)

For me, MV Agusta is absolutely unrivaled and unique in its DNA. It may be that there is something out there that smells like it, but I certainly don't know it.

The motorsport collaboration works perfectly for me as a theme and has been implemented accordingly. In terms of scent, I associate it with car museums, garages and leather goods stores. Leathery, spicy, herbaceous to give it some kind of title. It is generally difficult to describe fragrances, but in my opinion you can't get a picture of this one if you haven't had it in front of you, or rather in your nose.

I personally like to wear it as a fall and spring fragrance, outdoors during the day, where it really comes into its own. Indoors, without much distance to others, it can be a challenge under certain circumstances. I received mostly positive, but still mixed feedback. I would definitely not recommend it to younger perfume lovers, I think it is rather difficult for most people under 30.

My conclusion: definitely worth a trial or purchase, but rather as a supplement for those who own more than 10 perfumes. As an Everyday or Signature definitely too edgy for 99%.
