      It’s not always about price, it’s the complexity and the cost of the ingredients. Xerjoff uses a ton of very sophisticated ingredients, and the way they blend those ingredients is also leagues above designer fragrances. The final product’s price is right on spot when we’re talking about Xerjoff.

    Both are really nice, but Naxos is way more complex and refined and therefore has that beautiful niche vibe that you don’t get with most of the designer mass production fragrances. If I’d have to choose one of them for signature fragrance, Naxos would be the winner.

    I had to opportunity to meet Ashley when I was in SF last summer. I was blown away by her knowledge and her nose and her ability to pick up notes. I had close to 15 different test strips without names. She could smell them and recall which fragrance was on them. Loved how she comes out and says the pyramid is mostly marketing. I own both. I find the pure Havanne to last longer, project well and for20% of the price of Naxos, it's a no brainier.

    I had a similar reaction to Ashley's when I first smelled Naxos, having been familiar with Pure Havane beforehand, and I prefer the warmth, density, and honeyedness of Pure Havane. Naxos is surely nice but did not live up the esteem in which many hold it. Also, I love Ashley collabs and the concept for this video, of comparing two similar fragrances!

Scents can trigger memories and moods and this one just relaxes me after a long day. Probably only for winter though, I can't wear this at all in warm weather.

    @MarkTomeh Рік тому

    Overall Naxos is smoother and more rounded. The Lavender sets it apart from Pure Havane. Pure Havane is more raw and more gourmand. You smell the Cacao and honey more. You also get the Angel Patchouli that blends well with the chocolate and honey. They're both great. I would put Naxos Slightly ahead. It smells better blended, less like cherry pipe tobacco. It's fresher, more versatile and a better blend of honey, tobacco, tonka, lavender, jasmine, and vanilla.

    Hi to you both!
    I own both of these and enjoy them both, but Naxos is the one I would choose for when dressing a little more upscale is called for, and PH when more casual.
    To be honest, I actually prefer Pure Malt over Havane, but would wear that more in the winter and Havane in the autumn/fall time.
    If you made me choose between them and could only keep one, I would pick the Xerjoff.
    I absolutely HATE the Mugler bottles though, good juice let down by horrible rubber coated nasty bottles.

    Gonna have to go with Ashley. I mean...Pure Havane. Just because it's more utilitarian really. After all, how many bottles can you get for the price of one bottle of Naxos? True, the reformulation really killed the performance (which is why so many people are just going for Insurrection Wild II) but the added patchouli gives it a kind of warmth I think. And I still don't know why people don't just cut the rubber around the atomizer with a pen knife. It sprays amazing and you can't even see the cut if done properly. Otherwise, no complaints about the sprayer PLEASE!! lol

    Awesome review... Sometimes the creator of the frag wilfully doesn't mention the actual notes in order to avoid it being cloned to the nearest point ✌️

    My literally two favorite fragrances of all time, they are similar, yet not similar at once. I have both and absolutely love both, yet purely by smell I love Pure Havane a bit more, because of that cacao and cherry note. If Naxos would not have lavender (slight clean, soapy vibe) it maybe you edge out Pure Havane, lavender in Naxos really reminds me of original Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme, So Naxos really reminds me of Pure Havane and Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme mixed together and amped up quality. Nontheless, both creations are simply "must have"!

    The Name « Naxos » doesn’t refer to the greek island, but to the seaside resort called « Giardini Naxos » situated in Sicily because this perfume is part of the 1861 collection that commemorates the unification of Italy in which Sicily played a Major role as Sergio Momo says in the video you filmed in Turin 😉

    I think the price of a fragrance is definitely influencing some of these comment reviews. Pure Havane is a nice fragrance but I don’t think it’s slightly fair to compare it to the refinement of Naxos. I guess I’m lucky because Naxos will project on my skin for 4-6hrs and live as a skin scent for 12 more. I can’t speak on the original formulation of mugler’s PH but it’s not getting performance anywhere near that, doesn’t last long at all. They don’t smell all that similar to me either, 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Pure havane is a tuff one for me. In the air or far away it's smells awsome but if you smell close or on someone it smells very cheap and like a cherry cough drop and the Tabacco is awful up close . Can't really figure it out.

    When listing the notes for Naxos, you said honey (and it absolutely has honey) and then you said the honey is missing from it. Makes no sense. Anyway, this was a fun back and forth. Naxos is my favorite fragrance ever, and at a discounter I was able to get it for $170, so it's an easy choice for me.

    I've been testing this, Naxos could be pretty much worn all year. Obviously control your sprays in the summer.

    I like both of these but they don't have very much similarity to me. Pure Havane is great when you want something a little rougher and sweeter and honeyed (gooey as Ashley says), Naxos has a really superb creamy blend with its tobacco that (at first) comes off a little coconut to me but ends up a really superb an unique take on tobacco. That said, both great but on pure value alone Pure Havane is unbeatable in this match-up. For the folks who love PH btw, try Mancera Red Tobacco that is a great sweeter one too.

    Naxos has honey in it. I think the difference smell comes from the Tonka Beans & Lavender that is in Naxos and not in Pure Havane.

    Great video :) I've got both and love both! Also Herod, 18:21, chergui, red tobacco.... I love my tobacco scents. Red Tobacco is the hardest one out of those to wear I'd say.

    I’ve tried both and while I do think Naxos is the better scent overall, it’s nowhere near worth the asking price. Pure Havane isn’t really my thing, the lavender note in it is very dank and almost mildew like. I just can’t get over that. The performance of PH, even though it’s an EDT, is better than Naxos, believe it or not. Naxos doesn’t have the lavender, it has jasmine and other soft florals, which, for me personally, makes it the better blend. The tobacco notes are not as up front in Naxos as they are in PH. Overall, I think that Herod, from PdM, is the better scent out of all three of these, it wins on price (it’s on reputable discount sites right now), it wins on performance, and it wins on the overall blend.

    What ever happened to Ashley? Did she eventually graduate as a Parfumeur? Is she working actively in perfumery with her degree?

    Naxos is the biggest island from the small islands in the center of Aegean Sea called Cyclades (santorini,Mykonos,Paros etc) . It is an ancient place according to Greek mythology is the island of the Greek god Dionisos god of wine , joy and parties with orgies , Thiseas the one who killed the great beast of Crete Minotaurs left Ariadne his wife there in the way home to Athens . It’s a great island with magnificent beauty not just for the beaches but for the great mainland.In Naxos you can also find the biggest mountain in the Cyclades which is called Zeus (1001meters) the place where Zeus spend his childhood according with Greek mythology . This island is really beautiful with great traditional foods and remedies. You can smell nature there .Maybe they were amazed by the island thats why they named this amazing fragrance Naxos .
