- Longer wear time than many in its class — typically lasting 8+ hours on skin, with projection that suits both daytime and evening wear.

Why Is Xerjoff's Casamorati 1888 So Expensive?
Xerjoff's Casamorati 1888 carries a premium price for reasons that go beyond the juice itself. High-end fragrance houses invest heavily in brand positioning, campaign spend, and retail partnerships — costs that are folded directly into the price consumers pay. The bottle design, packaging, and distribution through luxury retailers add further overhead before a single spray is used. Raw materials also play a role: natural-sourced versions of notes like coriander or sandalwood can vary significantly in cost depending on sourcing and quality tier. Gingerbread Speziata uses high-quality aroma compounds selected to replicate the character of Casamorati 1888 — without absorbing those downstream costs. The result is an oriental fragrance that performs on skin with the same confidence, at a price that reflects the scent — not the status.

- The top notes of Casamorati 1888 include Coriander, Carnation, Pepper, and Saffron. These opening notes create the initial impression of the scent — typically the brightest and most volatile part of the composition, lasting the first 15–30 minutes on skin before giving way to the heart.

- The heart notes — which define the character of the scent once it settles — include Rose, Neroli, and Ylang-Ylang. The base notes, which form the long-lasting dry-down, are Sandalwood, Patchouli, Amber, and Birch. Together they create the full arc of the fragrance from first spray to end of day.

How to Layer Gingerbread Speziata with Sicily Aqua
Combining a oriental fragrance with a floral one is a classic layering technique — each family brings something the other lacks, and the result on skin is more complex than either worn alone. Gingerbread Speziata and Sicily Aqua are selected by our scent team as a pairing with strong complementary notes.
How to layer them: Start with Sicily Aqua as your base — apply it first to pulse points (wrists, neck, behind the ears) and allow 30–60 seconds for it to settle. Then layer Gingerbread Speziata on top. The honey base of Sicily Aqua anchors the composition, while the coriander opening of Gingerbread Speziata lifts the blend and adds character on top.
