Fars is the gentleman's oud in Xerjoff's Oud Stars stable — less sweet than Alexandria II, more polished and wearable than hardcore Arabian ouds. Bergamot, lavender and smoky cade open onto a cedar-vetiver-oud base that reads like an impeccably tailored suit with a hint of woodsmoke. Named for the Persian heartland, it's the Oud Star you can actually wear to the office. If oud usually feels like too much, Fars is the diplomatic answer.

Xerjoff Fars is a refined oriental-woody-spicy fragrance from the Oud Stars collection, blending East and West. It opens with French lavender, Italian bergamot, and cade oil, creating an inviting first impression. The heart reveals Egyptian geranium, jasmine absolute, and cedar, adding depth and character. The base settles into amber, Haitian vetiver, and patchouli, providing lasting warmth and sophistication. With excellent longevity and projection, this unisex fragrance is perfect for special occasions and those who appreciate niche luxury.

Layering Tip

Spray the heavier scent first, then the lighter one on top. Start with two scents — more than three quickly becomes muddled. Always test on skin first.
