XPEC Original

XPEC · 2002

Floral · Green · Spicy

XPEC Original opens with lemon, tuberose and thyme before settling into cedarwood and oakmoss, a green, spicy chypre made for men and now discontinued. Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters point to fall, followed by spring and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. Most voters read it as masculine, while some find it feminine. Lemon brings freshness up top, joined by tuberose and thyme. Pepper, fennel and ginger put the spice forward in the heart. The base of cedarwood and oakmoss is woody and earthy, with a leathery, animalic edge running through.

XPEC Woman

6.4

XPEC · 2008

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

XPEC Woman is a women's fragrance that sets a fresh citrus opening against a resinous, spicy depth; it has been discontinued. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick winter and fall, with spring not far behind and summer a small share. Leisure and evening lead the occasions, though daytime and business wear are also named. Lemon, bergamot and orange blossom open it fresh. In the heart, fig, rose, coriander and ginger bring a floral, fruity sweetness with spice. Frankincense, opoponax and labdanum settle underneath as a resinous, faintly smoky, earthy base. Etro Shaal Nur and Byredo Encens Chembur have a close profile.
