I have tried tons of fragrances and Naxos is seriously one of my faves. Some may say it's too sweet and not enough tobacco, but on my skin the tobacco is very prominent and softened beautifully by vanilla, honey and cashmeran. Perfectly unisex scent. I don't get the monster longevity you have in this vid, on me longevity is just average, but that's completely fine with me.
Great review. Naxos is my top 5 cold weather fragrances. In addition to Naxos, i also own Lira, Nio, Uden, Uden Overdose, and Renaissance from Xerjoff. Lira is marketed for women, but i liked the smell so much when I sampled it that I decided to buy a full bottle.
I ordered 3 ml of it and I do not like it at all. I was expecting the sweet smell of sweet pipe tobacco which I actually like. I should have known it's not for me since I absolutely hate the smell of cigarettes. I do not want to offend anyone, but it actually gives me a headache because it's way too sweet for me and I really don't like the tobacco smell. I wore this when I was at my parents house and they were literally asking me if I started smoking. Combined with that sweetness I was actually annoyed by myself when I wore this. You should never blind buy, especially not this one. You might get very upset if you do.
Hi Melissa. Thank you kindly. Nice quick review. Maybe do a longer one touching on the notes! Sillage, Projection etc. But hey ho😮 Plenty places for those 6 Hour sleep 💤 Fests as you know. Bottom line you sold it🎉 The way you came across with the attitude & enthusiasm. For me? Absolutely top notch. You nailed it in your own wonderful way. Kudos for that young lady. Keep doing what you do so very well. I'm a believer & a subscriber. Once again just a massive thank you. Stay safe out there. Xerjoff Navos is now most definitely on my radar. I can forsee 100ml incoming real soon. Next two weeks 😂🎉🤗
It’s really nice to see a young lady like you appreciating fragrances of high quality but I must warn you. It gets expensive because you are gonna chase more higher fragrances and ingredients. It’s a rabbit hole but it’s fun
My personal favorite from Xerjoff is definitely Erba Pura. (I have it for a week now) but today I was at the gym, and I was waiting for a friend in the changing room for about 5 minutes. He came in and instantly said I already knew you were here because I could smell your perfume as soon as I walked through the entrance of the gym 🤣 its crazy
This is one of my best fragrance ever ! Soooo sexy and he’s a beast mood exceptionally here in Paris in a cold weather and wear it by night . Fantastic fragrance . Thank you Sergio momo !!
Most fragrances tend to not last on/project off my skin, but Naxos is an exception. I get great performance on this one- over 10 hours, maybe more but I had to take a shower. Great stuff
The first time I smelled this I was at LAX. It was like fine ass lady wearing 😍 it. It was cutting through all the people and travelers , I had to get it. Alexandria 2 , 40 Knots, Uden, Naxos. ALL BANGERS !!!
I bought Naxos on a blind buy because I love tobacco scents. I found it like my " father's EDT. " I just didn't find it unisex enough. It was very disappointing.
Naxos is one of my favorites. Had to get a full bottle. Pure Niche perfection!!! Naxo's is how you stand out & away from the Creeds the Parfums DM. Nothing wrong with those 2 houses either but both are overplayed. I’d say get Alexandrai II or Pikovaya Dama. I prefer PikoVaya Dama.
Girl, get Alexanderia II. I love Naxos so much but the performance on me is kinda sad but I still love it. Alexandria II is beautiful blended. The notes evolve over time. At first I get hit with Apples, wood, shit ton of spanish lavender and very very slight animalic oud but nothing overpowering at all, then the bulgarian rose and lilly of the valley hit and then dry down to a beautiful rose, and wood...I've never smelled anything more beautiful. The only downside is it's hella expensive on my budget and it last soooooo long on my skin.
Hello, Comandante its a freshier version of Naxos, its so fresh and beautiful and see it as perfect masculine every day sent, but i had prob with performance with that one, just 4 max 5h at my skin with just 1 to 1,5h of projection on other hand Alexandra 2 last forever and its five steps above of the Commandante in terms of ingredients quality and longevity. Its more on femine side but i like it a lot, unfortunatly i cant see it on myself just becase of that femine side.
I smell fresh lavender , then , with the honey and the jasmine note , you get a honey suckle vibe with cinnamon,the tobacco and the tonka at the base keep it from the honey smelling too sweet and keeps it more masculine. It’s actually smells so great , Herod is great , but I am liking, iommi special monkey by Xerjoff, fucking with Encens suave actually tbh
I recommend you to test perfumes before buying, its cheaper to play roulette than to blind buy it ( trust me, i know what im talking about ) :D Also i see that you have a lot of best sellers in your collection and i would recomend you test Ganymede by Marc-Antoine Barrois, Acqua di Sale Profumum Roma, Rock Rose by Clive Christian more masculine, Marfa and Marfa Spices by Memo more fimine...
Great review just picked this up as for commandante it’s another sexy fragrance that also has honey but with florals it almost smells designer-esq but hell nah that shit is 🔥 as well
If your like me... 1:56 is the confirmation you need. I already smelled and liked it but its nice to see what it does. Call me crazy...I like it better than grand soir.(been comparing samples for a while and naxos fits my character better)
Hey Melissa, love your content. Just bought Naxos because of this video. Out of curiosity, have you heard anything about Xerjoff reformulating Naxos? Let me know, thanks.
Herod isn't even in the same universe as Naxos. I LOVE PDM frags as a rule, but Herod has this off-putting note in it, especially in the dry down. Carlisle, however IS similar to Naxos, but without the honey note. I love both of those fragrances to death and I alternate between them.
How is it similar? One has patchouli the other does not, one has citrus the other does not, one has honey as you mentioned... Only similarities I get are they are both sweet and expensive.
Naxos. Maybe it's just me but erba pura smells synthetic and cloying just after one spray. The fruit smell isn't as strong as I'd like or realistic. Naxos feels more tolerable
Maybe on your skin. 6 h max on mine. Tested also with layton side by side on paper . Layton on paper lasts till next day, naxos is gone in a few hours. Bit overrated aswell. Its nice but nothing special
Hi I have try Naxos and Rehab and trying to decide between the two. They both smell similar and I love both scents. I think Naxos is more brighter in opening. Do they smell similar to u? Thanks and appreciate any feedback
Hi Melissa, new sub here. I love your videos and your personality. I am relatively new to niche, but I have emersed myself in it. I found out pretty quickly what I love, and one of those things is tabacco as a note. I love Herod and Tabacco Vanille, but the one I will be buying first is Red Tabacco by Mancera. It is just so intoxicating. Give it a try.
I am so tired of people calling everything a masterpiece! I blind bought this because it was a “safe” blind buy. NOPE. It is not good unless you like granny scents. This was horrible, smells like an old medicine cabinet at grandmas in the 90s that hasnt been opened for years.
Alexandria 2 smells like rubbing alcohol and that smell sticks around the whole time then after a bit you start to smell talcum powder which smells like old lady at a nursing home. Super feminate I had to give it to my mom because no one else would take it lol
Mhm .. I got the perfume on Amazon this is the second time using it and like it has no smell at all I mean it does but it ain’t like that loud!!! Is it supposed to be like that ?
@@melissanacional9662 it came with the fancy box and all mhm … idk kinda disappointed. Like I can smell it but other people seems not to catch the smell
I just sprayed some to test on my wrist today and honestly I CANT STOP smelling my wrist this is insanely good!!!
Is it honey heavy?
How strong is the tobacco note?
can you tell me about it longevity?
@@gustavoo.9113 Did you not pay attention to the video? She said 10 - 12 hours longevity.
Is it like red tobacco?
100% agree. masterpiece. the honey note is not too sweet & perfectly blended. I think it works well during summer nights as well.
I have tried tons of fragrances and Naxos is seriously one of my faves. Some may say it's too sweet and not enough tobacco, but on my skin the tobacco is very prominent and softened beautifully by vanilla, honey and cashmeran. Perfectly unisex scent.

This is my signature scent, whole bottle almost gone and will need to be replaced lol, much respect to you, i enjoy your channel
Can you wear it in summer ?
@@philruttel5537 for sure bro
@@hiphopnumber1318 How many sprays do you use in summer? 1? Or 2?

I have both Alexandria and Naxos 😊
Great short review..I would recommend Alexandria|| any day.

Love the video Melissa I’m have to try this stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Thanks antwain!
Alexandria II is one of the best perfumes ever made IMO. Did you end up buying it?
QUEEN 👸🏽 😍
YOU
Naxos in the cold weather with a Peacoat on is next level!!

P.s. been throwing hands and feet since 79 gurl....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Great short review
Thank you!
is it better than Layton?
I already have herod. Would it be redundant if i purchase naxos?
You should get Alexandria II for sure.
That solidified it, I will now haha
Hey Melissa, love your content. Just bought Naxos because of this video. Out of curiosity, have you heard anything about Xerjoff reformulating Naxos? Let me know, thanks.
I would love to see a review on come on Comandante
Very nice review, how many sprays of this one do you recommend on a not too cold day?
Alexandria II or naxos? I own both. For me Alexandria II is my favorite. Tony iommi second...naxos third
Got a dupe sample of this and I like it so much am going to get a bottle of the real thing
Not many perfumes impressed my like Naxos. In my top 3.
Herod isn't even in the same universe as Naxos. I LOVE PDM frags as a rule, but Herod has this off-putting note in it, especially in the dry down. Carlisle, however IS similar to Naxos, but without the honey note. I love both of those fragrances to death and I alternate between them.

Erba Pura vs Naxos - what would you choose if you had to?
I’m in the same boat my local neiman got this house and they both smell amazing!! I’m wearing ebra pura now and am in love
Naxos. Maybe it's just me but erba pura smells synthetic and cloying just after one spray. The fruit smell isn't as strong as I'd like or realistic. Naxos feels more tolerable
You should try Peter Jacobs Imperial Bleu a lot of people don’t talk about it
Maybe on your skin. 6 h max on mine. Tested also with layton side by side on paper . Layton on paper lasts till next day, naxos is gone in a few hours. Bit overrated aswell. Its nice but nothing special
You want to add a Xerjoff? Try Mamluk. Exotic and then some.
Super happy to blind buy this one! Loving it 🥰
Hi, how would you rate him compare to Mancera Red tobacco and Nishane Hacivat for projection between 0 and 10 ? (Red tobacco is 10 for me)
Where is the best place to buy an authentic bottle
How many spray you recommend to go for normally?
May i ask you how herod performs compared to naxos!?i own naxos and i love it ,wanted to add herod as a tobacco scent but im worried bout longevity
Herod's performance lately is not good. It just vanishes after an hour or so, and doesn't project well at all.
Hi
I have try Naxos and Rehab and trying to decide between the two. They both smell similar and I love both scents.
I think Naxos is more brighter in opening.
Do they smell similar to u?
Thanks and appreciate any feedback
Are you reffering to Rehab from Initio?
Hi Melissa, new sub here. I love your videos and your personality. I am relatively new to niche, but I have emersed myself in it.

It is just so intoxicating. Give it a try.
Hi! Thanks for subbing! Unfortunately I don’t like red tobacco 😩
@@melissanacional9662 Ah, too bad. I guess it might be too sweet for you. Would you still recommend Naxos for someone who loves Herod and Red Tabacco?
I would :)
I am so tired of people calling everything a masterpiece! I blind bought this because it was a “safe” blind buy. NOPE. It is not good unless you like granny scents. This was horrible, smells like an old medicine cabinet at grandmas in the 90s that hasnt been opened for years.
Time to get your nose checked. Maybe need a surgical operation to fix it.
Bought this recently however the performance Is not great on my skin or clothes anyone else having this issue?
Melissa, I love yooouuu
Tuxedo o Naxos?
That entire 1861 line is incredible.
does the naxos remind anyone of joop?
Is it like red tobacco?
I hope it’s worth it cos I just brought the bottle
was it worth??
Is it worth the $$$?
What size bottle is this?
Try XERJOFF STARLIGHT
Which batch do you have?
So Naxos and side effect, which one is the best?
Side effect or amouage interlude man
Naxos magnifica
How to clean spot on cup sis 😢
Comandante means commander-chief
Definitely leans masculine!
Is Naxos better than Layton?
Ye
Alexandria 2 smells like rubbing alcohol and that smell sticks around the whole time then after a bit you start to smell talcum powder which smells like old lady at a nursing home. Super feminate I had to give it to my mom because no one else would take it lol
Can anyone tell me if naxos has been reformulated?? I would like to buy in 2022! Obrigado
Did you buy it?
Mhm .. I got the perfume on Amazon this is the second time using it and like it has no smell at all I mean it does but it ain’t like that loud!!! Is it supposed to be like that ?
Is it legit? Buying fragrances from Amazon can be sketchy
@@melissanacional9662 it came with the fancy box and all mhm … idk kinda disappointed. Like I can smell it but other people seems not to catch the smell
@@blueblue2362 thats amazon forya
It’s most likely diluted i bought a dupe on purpose & projection is not good & the scent disappears quickly
The fancy box means nothing. It could be a dupe in an authentic box
Ano ba fuckin yan, its bee farm in a bottle 🐝 🍯 😁 amazing choice.
Check Symphonium, it will bring ur chocolate game to another level 😏
Melissa u don't give me granny vibes take that bottle an give it to a elderly couple younger people have no business wearing this fragrance
You are beautiful - What’s your heritage? 😍
Girl just told me I smell like Icy Hot or Bengay. WTF?
Is this redundant to have if you already own JPG Elixir??
😍😍😍😍
alexandria ii is far better than comandante
❤️👍🏻
You must like honey if you wana rock this one 😅😅
Alex2!
