JTC 400

Meeeeeh... Just average in all categories... Doesnt worth money...

If you’re curious about 400 I will give you a comp that will make you laugh…but there is some truth to it. It shares some similarities to Jordan’s Legend. Now Michael Jordan’s Legend is a super cheapy that you can buy for 15.00 at Marshall’s. There is a gaping cavern that separates the quality of these fragrances; buuuuut, they share that white floral opening with that honeyed tobacco backbone that give both fragrances a kind feminine/masculine dichotomy. 400 is far superior in every way, but if you’ve smelled Legend then your at least in the same ballpark,(just in far better seats.) An easier comparison that won’t hurt your brain is 400 as Naxos with the white florals amped up. I am a large, burly man and I enjoy florals in my fragrances to tone down my vibe…this one works perfectly. An absolute 10/10 fragrance that I will wear for life.

Delicious moreish that turned me into an arm sniffer. Lots of honey and orange blossom and florals. Reminds me of the style of Mulger Alien and Initio Addictive Vibration, but not a clone. I didn’t think I’d like this style of fragrance, (40yo male), but so far it’s surprised me. Extrovert dressed up vibes. Classy and high quality head turner. I cannot believe the scent bubble from one spray. Really filled the room. Dry down I got vanilla / cedar with lasting florals. After wearing it a few times, I get the tobacco blossom idea. It balances the sweetness of the honey without going too far.

I have 400 on for the first time. I can't tell you if there is any correlation between Oxford Street or London England in general. What I can tell you is how 400 makes me feel. And, it makes me feel reinvented. It is exceptional. For the past month, I have been testing out almost the entire collection from Xerjoff and I thought Ceylon was the pinnacle of my sample set. I was wrong. 400 has a similar note composition, most apparent in the honey opening. Perhaps the orange blossom as well. There is a gentle spice aspect and I don't know from where. Maybe the tobacco blossom? When that is juxtaposed with a sweet ylang-ylang it creates an almost narcotic effect. Of course there are other elements, but everything is blended beautifully. There is nothing overpowering or that stands out from the rest. In my opinion, this is the most successful out of the join the club series. Better than more than words. Better than 40 knots and yes, better than k’bridge Club. Attractive on a woman, Drop dead on a man.

This is based on just one wear today, so take it for what its worth. Its a heavier frag, heavy enough to last from 8:15am up until now 10:12pm ( time of me writing this review ), and my gf just asked me if I just put on this scent. LOL its a MONSTER of projection and also how beastly it lasts. I mean come on, anything over 8 hours nowadays deserves some spot light, this right here is 14hrs and going strong with a trail. Scent at first smells like an older grandma that cares about her fashion and always looking great, but a woman on a fancier side. When it dries down, like 3-4 hours later haha ( yes that long ) it becomes really pleasant to my nose, familiar and I kept asking myself " do I like this? how do I know this scent ? " And then I realized, it smells to me like a nicer version of the BLUE tree new car scent. I dont know about you but because of that, I just wouldnt want to think I smell like a nice, oldschool, clean car, and Id be constantly reminded of that through random whiffs. My last words, its not a bad frag, Xerjoff is an amazing house I am starting to explore, and this frag is so well blended and smooth. I would just recommend sampling it before you buy since its a hit or miss with this style of frag. Update 12/13/22 - I own a bottle lol. I absolutely love this. Its very complex frag imo and also definitely extremely unique. This and Xerjoff Renaissance are among my top frags for smelling amazing in summer. Warning, this isn't for someone who just got into fragrances and likes their scents super fresh. Find me on IG & YT @VirginNose
