Xerjoff Elle Anniversary EDP

Description

Elle Anniversary opened Xerjoff’s 17/17 collection in 2023, composed by perfumer Marie Huguenot as a fruity floral built on an unusually woody, musky base for the genre. Litchi, red fruits, and green apple make for a juicy, sparkling opening; peony and jasmine soften into a powdery-sweet heart lifted by a touch of licorice; and a cashmere-wood, sandalwood, and patchouli base gives it a warmth that lingers longer than most fruity florals.

Scent Character

• Woody: 37%
• Sweet: 29%
• Floral: 17%
• Fresh: 17%

Translation: don’t let the juicy fruit opening fool you. This settles into a genuinely woody, musky composition, more grown-up than a typical fruity floral.

Performance

Very good longevity, typically 6-8 hours, thanks to the woody-musky base outlasting the fruity top. Sillage is strong: this isn’t a shy fruity floral, and it projects noticeably.

FAQ

Is Elle Anniversary a typical fruity floral?

Who composed it?
Perfumer Marie Huguenot, in 2023, as the debut fragrance in Xerjoff’s 17/17 collection.

How does it compare to Homme Anniversary?
They share the 17/17 collection’s boutique positioning, but Elle Anniversary is a fruity-woody floral built for women, while Homme Anniversary is a leather-spice Parfum built for men, different scent families entirely.

The 1 mL vial is a low-cost way to test the dry-down, which is where this fragrance really shows its character.
