A little too on the masculine side for me.

Beautiful soft a bit powdery some sweetness and lemony freshness as well.

Love it

A few of the reviews said it smelled like a lemon cleaner, and you know, they aren't 100% wrong. That being said, there is something about this fragrance that I REALLY like and it is a new favorite for summer.

It is pretty.

Great scent that definitely leans masculine. Great citrus opening that drys down musky. Longevity and projection a bit weak for me.

A perfect citrus fragrance in my opinion. Imagine yourself cutting fresh lemons for lemonade and some fresh mint for a cold mojito on a hot summer day. Refreshing, natural and crisp. Longevity is AMAZING, projection is GREAT. Xerjoff never fails.

Amazing! It smells fresh and expensive. I recommend!

It's just ok. Very heavy, perhaps with musk. It did not work for me.

Great for a summer scent.

Very Green and fresh. Dries down to a musky smell. Slightly more masculine than unisex but I wore it and I liked it.

Smells way more like a cologne than a perfume. I ended up giving it to my teenage son. Smells very musky and strong.

One of my favorite niche fragrance

Loved it

very good fragrances an excellent clean smell

Starts off smelling like a lemon cleaner, as stated in another review, fades into a more powdery musky scent that I don't find complimentary.

Smells like a chemical and green grass

A bright & citrusy fragrance that's perfect for the spring / summer weather .. It reminds me a lot of Versace Green Jeans

Not my smell

This sent matches my personality!!!!!

Not what I was expecting

I was told that this is one of THE BEST xerjoff scents and had to buy it, however I feel like it’s not what I expected at all. Just barely too sweet, and not really and longevity to it, nor is it very strong.

It smells like a bad lemon cleaner. Not my thing and was approaching a smell headache that I've never had before, and I own over 100 different fragrances.

This fragrance definitely exceeded my expectations! I thought it would be a pleasant light juicy citrus that was summery but not that unique. This is such a beautiful combination of smells. The citrus is dry, not juicy, yet still fresh. There is a very nice dry amber musk that grounds the fragrance and also gently lifts it. It has a character of a soft breeze. The dryness is reminiscent of powder but not in a bad way. I absolutely hate baby powder smells and this has no relation to that. It is warm, a bit spicy, soft, round, fresh in all the right ways. A real winner and an all day fragrance that I can't imagine getting tired of. Longevity is not as great as some. It tends to disappear with perspiration. However it stays very nicely on clothing and lasts for a long time in cool dry conditions. Sillage is soft to moderate. I think this could lean feminine or masculine depending on the wearer. Love it!

This smells soooo good! I am obsessed!! It smells like fresh lemons, oranges, clean! This is my after the shower fragrance! I am definitely getting the full bottle!

I'm in love with this fragrance, it had me at "Hello", This will be in rotation for the Spring/Summer.

Love it

Love it!!

Couldn't even wear it. Smelled more like a cleaner than a perfume.

If you want to smell like an orange, this is the fragrance for you! Performance and sillage is so-so. Good for daytime casual wear.

I think this is horrible. The only way I can describe this scent is gaudy. It smells like an old rich woman.

Really beautiful Unusual lovely scent with wonderful sillage

I like the citrus high notes and the sweet mid note that lasts about 2-3 hours. Noticed but not over powering to others.

The scent is my new favorite citrus I love the way it opens with the lemon and then throughout the day I get a little bit of the lily of the valley. Definitely a buy

This scent was not for me. I selected this fragrance after falling in love with Erba pura... However this is NOT Erba pura! I'm not going to say it's terrible, but it is not my preference

I love this one. It's bitter lemon, ice cold limoncello. It's not as mass appealing as some other citrus scents, but it's unique, and it's memorable. The real deal, in my opinion, and given that a bottle can be had for under $200, I think I'll purchase it next summer.

My new favorite

My wife really loves this scent on me

Absolutely love this scent. Lasted all day. I mite buy a bottle of this.

I like mostly unisex fragrances this was to masculine but not a bad smell

It's ok wife like it

If there is citrus in this, I've gone nose-blind to it. There's a light scent, but it settles into an old-lady powder smell. I'll be exchanging this one.

I love the smell but it skews masculine. I keep going back and forth on it. The citrus is beautiful. I wish my husband wore fragrance.

As much as people rave about Xerjoff, so far I have been wholly unimpressed. Being able to try Xerjoff fragrances was one of the main reasons I subscribed to ScentBox! They hold no blame in this though - that is squarely on Xerjoff's shoulders. 1861 Renaissance is meant to be a citrus aromatic fragrance. I found that the citrus portion of the description is true, however I wouldn't call it an aromatic per se. Smelling from just the bottle, the top and mid-notes reminded me of like, citrus-scented Smarties candies. Vaguely chalky/powdery, sweet citrus, a little tang. However, the base notes, which I only discovered spraying on skin, are what completely turned me off and do not give me the "aromatic" portion of the fragrance I was seeking. Perhaps it was the rose-amber-patchouli combo in the drydown. I personally have a sensitivity to ambers and their synthetic equivalents, so I am guessing that is what ultimately turned me off of this fragrance. Certainly not worth the price of a full bottle. Thank you ScentBox for allowing me to sample this before dropping $250 on a big bottle I would have hated!

I'm really on the fence about this one. Something in the fragrance I don't prefer but I'll wear it and never buy it.

Strong citrus opening but the dry down is amazing becomes very powdery. Note: it is on the more masculine side so be wary of that.

Nice sweet and smooth smell can be unique can be more for a man in my option my gf definitely loved this smell ????????

It’s nice but a bit to much citrus for my liking.

Very fresh scent!

Not for me didn’t like it. Not a bad smell just not me. Maybe more for a man.

It's okay. Just not my favorite. Seems like to many smells are in the mixture.

Too manly smelling
