40 Noeuds

40 Noeuds / XERJOFF - Monaco Exclusive It was created as a derivative of 40 Knots exclusively for the Monaco Xerjoff boutique, and was inspired by the rose garden dedicated to the late Princess Grace of Monaco. Just like 40 Knots, it is a member of the Join the Club collection, and is characterized by a specific slightly salty note. Although they have a similar name, they are distinguished by one wonderful, refined note of rose. The combination of woody, salty, marine, green and rose notes even seems a bit fruity to me, but only at times. I imagine this perfume as a spring-summer signature scent, which an individual can proudly wear during the day, as well as in the evening. It definitely falls somewhere between the sexes, so I can call it a unisex perfume without hesitation. All the time I feel a bubble of rose, greens, salt and wood around me. Very special and unique has an "X" factor 10/10

Completely agree with @AlexiostheGreat, I was just thinking about what that smelled like, as I knew I smelled something similar before. My best way to describe it is it takes that honey soaked salt note, turns down the sharpness of it, makes it more refined and more "Champagne-like" with the bit of fizz, and combines it with aroma from a distant rose and some sweet green notes. If 40 knots is someone on a yacht, 40 noeuds is someone standing on a balcony of a coastal hotel, with the saltwater breeze being brought to them by the coastal winds, combining with the smell of champagne and herbal/rose notes on the side.

I tried it in the Xerjoff boutique in Milan! I immediately recognized it as something with 40 Knots DNA - a woody, ambery, slightly salty fragrance. 40 Noeuds adds a rose to this, transforming this into something more suited for colder summer nights or a date night - a sweetened rose, almost jam-like. A different take on 40 Knots, and in my opinion, it's not redundant to own both (but you'll have to go to one of Xerjoff's boutiques to try/buy it.)

Bought it after I tested it several times...it lasts more than 10 hrs on my skin, it’s indeed a little bit woody, combined with marine/aquatic notes. I think it’s ideal for a summer evening, but also for spring-autumn normal days. As IAmStaka mentioned below, if you enjoy Accento ( also have this one), you’re also gonna enjoy this one...plus, I think it’s a better version of 40 Knots. 9/10

i really smell a rosy, dry champagne in this scent, its very luxurious and classy, exactly what you'd hope for in a monaco exclusive perfume.
