Cruz del Sur II by Xerjoff is a unisex fragrance from the Floral Woody Musk olfactory family, created in 2017. The house of Xerjoff is known for its luxury perfumes, and with Cruz del Sur II, it presents an olfactory experience inspired by the lush and exotic landscape of the rainforest. The fragrance is built around a combination of juicy fruits, lush flowers and a warm base, creating a composition that is both surprising and comforting. Cruz del Sur II has captured the attention of perfume lovers for its distinctive blend that fuses fruity and creamy ingredients with hints of depth and freshness.

At the start of the olfactory journey, the Top Notes offer a tropical and sweet explosion of mango, guava, pineapple and apple blossom. This opening is intense and vibrant, evoking the freshness of tropical fruits under the sun. Mango and pineapple, in particular, bring a fruity sweetness that is juicy and exotic, while apple blossom introduces a light and delicate floral note that balances the sweetness, making the fragrance attractive from the first moment.

In the Heart Notes, the perfume becomes more complex and multifaceted. The presence of blackcurrants adds a touch of acidity and depth to the composition, while exotic flowers and violet leaves bring a fresh and greenish floral sensation. This mixture in the heart of the perfume generates an atmosphere that evokes the humidity and freshness of tropical vegetation, giving the aroma an exotic and enveloping character. In addition, violet brings a light green note that contributes to the feeling of being surrounded by lush and dense nature.

The structure of Cruz del Sur II is completed in the base notes, where the fragrance becomes warmer and more comforting thanks to a combination of milk, dried fruits, musk, vetiver and cedar. The milk provides a creaminess that envelops and softens the entire composition, making the perfume especially pleasant in contact with the skin. The dried fruits add to this creaminess, offering a slightly sweet and woody nuance that prolongs the duration of the aroma on the skin.

The musk, together with the vetiver and cedar, provide a solid and earthy base that balances the fruity and floral notes. These elements create a depth and warmth that contrast with the fresher and sweeter notes of the top and heart. The vetiver and cedar, in particular, give the fragrance a touch of sophistication, allowing the perfume to maintain an elegance that goes beyond the initial fruity and sweet notes.

Cruz del Sur II is an ideal fragrance for those looking for a unique and exotic scent, full of contrasts between freshness and warmth, sweetness and elegance. Its versatility allows it to be used both on casual occasions and at special events, especially in temperate or warm climates, where its tropical notes can stand out more intensely. Despite being a sweet and creamy perfume, it feels sophisticated and well-balanced, making it suitable for both men and women.

In short, Cruz del Sur II by Xerjoff is a composition rich in nuances and contrasts, capturing the essence of a tropical paradise in a single bottle. This fragrance invites you to explore exotic nature with every note, from the initial juicy burst of fruit to the warm and comforting woody and musky base. It is undoubtedly a gem within the world of niche perfumery and a sensory journey that stands out for its originality and depth.
