Xerjoff Uden Perfume Review

Xerjoff Uden Eau de Parfum starts off with lightly sweet citrus notes that soon blend with boozy rum, then sandalwood, and finally vanilla and musk. Worth noting, the drydown was musk-heavy, which was a strong shift away from the more citrus-leaning phases prior. top notes: citrus fruits, lemon, grapefruit heart notes: rum, rose, gaiac, sandalwood base notes: vanilla, musk, coffee It opened with bright citrus–sweet lemons and bitter grapefruit freshly peeled–joined a few minutes later by rum, which warmed up Uden without taking away from the tang of the citrus. The rum was more noticeable about 15 minutes into development, but I could sense it lurking about earlier, and it added depth and body to the composition.

It had rich pigmentation in a single layer, which applied smoothly and evenly across my lips with ease as the applicator delivered the right amount of product and had a good shape to it.
