Ahoy, mateys! Are you a high roller who loves to sail, or perhaps you own a yacht? Then, my friend, you might want to keep reading this review of 40 Knots by the Italian brand Xerjoff. This unisex perfume is a fascinating fragrance because I can smell two distinct things, depending on the day. Intrigued? You should be!
Quick Facts:
Smell:
As I mentioned earlier, 40 Knots takes me on two different scent adventures, depending on the day, my mood, and whether the sun is out to play. The first aroma that comes to mind is a creamy Nivea cream – but we’re talking about the caviar of Nivea creams here, pure luxury.
The second scent, which I pick up on more often, is salty, slightly aquatic, a touch sweet, and just a tad creamy. Picture this: You’re chilling on your private yacht, cruising through the salty ocean waters on a sunny day that’s not too hot, with a gentle breeze blowing. That’s 40 Knots for you!
This fragrance is undoubtedly unique. Sure, there are other salty fragrances out there, but 40 Knots has that special creamy and balsamic touch that sets it apart. It’s pretty versatile and can be worn on almost any occasion, but it’s not for everyone. Like Baccarat Rouge 540, you don’t choose 40 Knots for an occasion; you choose it for the person you are. In my opinion, it’s perfect for the carefree, wealthy guy who just enjoys life.
Longevity:
When it comes to longevity, 40 Knots doesn’t disappoint. I can easily detect it on my skin for a solid 7 hours. Like most fragrances, it starts off with a strong projection that gradually mellows out over time.
