How does 400 compare to other Xerjoff fragrances like Naxos?+−
Naxos is fruitier and more overtly floral, while 400 leans into its tobacco and honey elements for a creamier, more grounded character. Both share Xerjoff's quality and longevity, but 400 feels warmer and more intimate where Naxos is brighter and more effusive. If you want Xerjoff's signature sophistication with a honeyed, almost creamy twist, 400 is the choice.
Is 400 better suited to men or women?+−
While classified as unisex, community consensus leans slightly toward men, though women who appreciate creamy, honeyed florals with tobacco undertones absolutely wear it successfully. The tobacco-vanilla base and overall warmth read as masculine-leaning to some, but the rose and orange blossom heart prevents it from feeling exclusively masculine. Test it yourself—fragrance doesn't wear gender.
What's the best season and occasion to wear 400?+−
Fall and spring are ideal, when the citrus top notes feel bright without the composition becoming too heavy, and the creamy floral heart hits its stride. It's positioned as an evening and date-night fragrance rather than a daily wear or formal business scent; it excels in intimate, leisure-focused moments where sophistication and subtle presence matter more than high-energy projection.
