Deified by Xerjoff is a wonderfull fragrance, mixing Middle-Eastern sweetness, sticky, spicy fresh apple with Western leather and woods. If you try and view it apart from the commercial/rock’nroll story you get a beautifull more male leaning warm, fresh spicy, leathery, slightly tobacco, apple scent that gives you a modern interpretation of a 19th-20th century Bohemian. Dressed in middle-eastern fabrics, living in a grand house filled with all kind of objects from all over the Mediterranean and Levant, he lives a full life, filled with excess and opulence. It’s a dandy, but not one that shouts or seeks the world’s view, he just does his thing. He loves to relax with a waterpipe, a good book and excellent food. He just loves life.
deified gives a great longevity, certainly a whole day, settling in clothes for longer. But not in a sticky, ambery paste way, but more in hints of it’s apple tobacco, leathery feel. It’s bright and sweet at the same time, yet Woody and leathery. When and how often Do you wear it? That’s up to you and the vibe you want to give. It suits any occasion, just don’t wear it when it’s more that 25C. And know that it really isn’t some Davidoff Cool Water one suits all scent.
Deified is a Fragrance that is grounded, grown up, yet fun and whimsical. it’s different, a bit weird, but in the most beautiful way. Ignore the commercial talks and make it your own.
The original Iommi scent has received an endless amount of hype, however it’s never been a love for me. The scent itself is different enough, which I must say is refreshing amongst flankers these days, but I find myself wanting more from many Xerjoff releases, this one included. An overwhelmingly sweet pairing of warm, honeyed saffron and juicy green apples leads the way, which is quite nice actually. This saffron is furthered by touches of rose and a patchouli base, alongside warm spicy cinnamon. Leather makes this smooth and balanced. I will admit, I like this more than the original Iommi, it’s undeniably inviting and alluring. However as I mentioned, it leaves me wanting more. I don’t find my eyes rolling back in my head when I smell it, but instead simply finding it satisfying - which for me isn’t worth paying hundreds for.
The opening of this puts me off. The almost sickly sweet apple and honey? is fitting within the scope of the scent, but it's almost like artificial candy. However once this passes, and the sweet is replaced with dry green, it's much more me.
The patchouli adds a spicy green note, and the spices add warmth and comfort. This alongside a lovely leather and rose, mixed with dry papyrus almost reminds me of the galbanum leather combination from Vilhelm's Morning Chess. The sweetness does remain, however the musky green spicy leather is more prominent.
