Zafar by Xerjoff is not for the faint of heartits a bold, resinous symphony in the oud-spicy-woody fragrance family. Launched in 2012, this scent opens with commanding top notes of agarwood (oud), smoky incense, and raw musk, immediately evoking ancient rituals and untamed elegance. The heart introduces a peppery contrast: cracked black pepper, crisp green apple, and dry cedarwood, striking a balance between spice and freshness. As it evolves, the base notes bloomvetiver, neroli, soft white florals, and a whisper of rose, giving it a surprisingly smooth and sensual dry-down.Best worn in cool to temperate evenings, Zafar commands attention at formal events, black-tie galas, or VIP business dinners. Its a unisex powerhouse for those who carry themselves with intention and charisma. If you want your fragrance to walk into the room before you doand stay long afteryou just found your signature.
