Naxos XerJoff 2015

Triple-double refers to the performance of having double-digit values in three statistical categories. A triple-double is very rare, is regarded as an outstanding achievement and speaks for a good all-round game.

I got Naxos as a bottling. It was the first ever set of niche fragrances I got from my perfume brother-in-law. Most of them were labeled, but all of them were completely unknown to me at the time. I took one of them out of the box the next day before work, it was a turquoise 5 ml plastic sample without any labeling. I applied it, was pleasantly surprised and spent the office day with it without knowing who it was. I only sprayed it on a little, if at all.

I don't remember if anyone asked me about the fragrance that day, it was too long ago. But I can still remember one thing clearly. When I was at home and looked out of the window, a voice said to me that I smelled good. The person wasn't close, the window I was looking out of was on the first floor. That was amazing, as it had been 10 hours since the application. A few days later, I found out which fragrance was in this unlabeled tube...

Naxos deserves the triple-double, which I am awarding for the first time. The three 10s can be used in all possible constellations without doing anything wrong.

So far, it is the most remarkable fragrance I have come across. Everything just fits. It's almost perfect. Everyone loves it, that's no coincidence. It's a decade. A milestone. I bow my head.
