Xerjoff Accento EDP
Description
Accento, launched by Xerjoff in 2019 under noses Christian Carbonnel and Laura Santander, is a bright chypre-floral built around an immediate, juicy burst of pineapple and cold hyacinth. As it develops, an elegant iris-and-jasmine heart takes over, warmed by pink pepper, before drying down into a comfortable musk, amber, vanilla and patchouli base. It's one of the more approachable, everyday-wearable entries in Xerjoff's catalog, playful rather than heavy, but still built with the rare-material richness the house is known for.
