9ml Sample | Xerjoff XJ 1861 Renaissance EDP

Perfumer: Christian Carbonnel | Launched: 2011 | Olfactory Family: Citrus Aromatic

Note Profile & Why They Work: Xerjoff XJ 1861 Renaissance is a tribute to the grandeur of Italian history, and it smells every bit as majestic as the legacy it honors. It opens with a masterful, hyper-realistic burst of Amalfi Lemon, Bergamot, and Tangerine, reinforced by a crisp, green Petitgrain that mimics the scent of crushing fresh citrus leaves. As the initial zest settles, the fragrance enters its most beautiful phase: a cooling heart of Mint paired with the clean, sophisticated air of Lily-of-the-Valley and Bulgarian Rose. This is anchored by a sturdy, warm, and slightly salty base of Amber, Musk, Cedar, and Patchouli. This composition is brilliant because it defies the common "citrus" trope; while most fresh scents fade within two hours, this is a "citrus beast" that maintains its high-definition freshness for hours on end.

Vibe: Effortlessly affluent, bright, and invigorating. Renaissance is the scent of a sunny, Mediterranean garden—it feels "bright white," crisp, and undeniably expensive. It is the ultimate signature for someone who wants to project confidence, extreme cleanliness, and a refined, sunny disposition.

Performance: Legendary. This fragrance is widely respected in the community for its exceptional longevity, particularly for a citrus-forward scent. It projects with a radiant, high-quality aura that remains present throughout the busiest of days.

Season: The ultimate "heat-killer." It is specifically designed to thrive in high humidity and intense summer heat, making it the definitive choice for Spring and Summer.

Why Purchase a Premium Decant from Floressence: Renaissance is a masterpiece of modern perfumery, but a full-bottle investment is significant. Our premium Floressence decant—housed in our signature, professional-grade thick square glass atomizer—is the most practical and authentic way to experience this "high-definition" citrus DNA. Whether you are looking for the perfect scent for outdoor weddings, high-end vacations, or simply want to elevate your summer rotation with a legendary fragrance, our decants provide the most practical and high-end experience without the full-bottle commitment.
