    Heritage

    A house, in its own words

    Founded in Turin in 2007 by Sergio Momo, Xerjoff was born from a desire to unite the worlds of luxury fragrance and high-concept design. Momo, who came from a successful career in branding and design, saw an opportunity to create a perfume house where the bottle and packaging were as meticulously considered as the juice inside. He envisioned a brand that would represent the pinnacle of Italian craftsmanship, using the finest raw materials available to tell evocative stories through scent. The house quickly established a reputation for its ambitious creative direction and uncompromising quality. A significant milestone was the revival of the historic 19th-century Italian perfume house, La Fabbrica di Profumi di C. Casamorati. Xerjoff acquired the dormant brand, researched its archives, and reintroduced its classic formulas to a new generation, preserving a piece of Italian olfactory history. This move cemented Xerjoff's role not just as a creator, but also as a custodian of perfume heritage.

    Xerjoff's philosophy is rooted in the concept of 'perfumery as art'. The house doesn't just sell scents; it offers multi-sensory experiences that connect to music, history, and nature. Each collection within the 'Xerjoff Universe', from the celestial Shooting Stars to the historically-inspired 1861, is a world unto itself with a distinct narrative. This approach treats perfume as a form of personal expression that transcends mere cosmetic application. Their creative drive comes from a deep appreciation for Italian culture, blending a passion for natural ingredients with an artistic sensibility that is both classic and forward-thinking. The brand believes that true luxury is found in the details, from the first spritz of a complex accord to the satisfying weight of a beautifully crafted cap. It's a holistic vision where every element contributes to the final story.
