John Varvatos XX ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 4 September 2020 2 Comments

John Varvatos has launched John Varvatos XX, a new woody oriental fragrance for men.  XX marks the brand's 20th anniversary, and celebrates "20 years of style and music".

This crisp fragrance sets a sophisticated tone to go from day to dinner as a sensuous signature scent, even after dark. John Varvatos XX is a fragrance inspired by the celebration of style & music, the heart, and soul of the John Varvatos brand. Bold and sophisticated, this masculine scent is infused with a relaxed yet sensuous feeling.

This oriental woody fragrance opens with cardamom, apple, and current [sic; they mean black currant] for a bright freshness that is grounded by a sweet floralcy of orange flower, geranium, and violet. Warm notes of sandalwood, cedarwood, and coffee deliver a sensual finish and easy addictiveness.

John Varvatos XX is available now at Dillards, $94, size unknown but probably 125 ml Eau de Toilette. .

    The notes are appealing. I was gifted with a large bottle of the first fragrance and it is sexy and unusual.

      The original was great…not sure they’ve ever topped it.
