Don from Xerjoff, composed by Chris Maurice in 2013, is a gourmand with musky and aromatic sides, mixing tobacco, whisky and spun sugar with a smoky gunpowder note. It is dark, boozy and sweet.

The notes are presented together. Gunpowder gives a dry, smoky, slightly metallic edge that sets the tone. Tobacco adds a sweet, leafy warmth, while whisky brings a boozy, woody richness. Spun sugar softens the darker elements with a light, candyfloss sweetness, so the scent balances smoke and sugar rather than leaning fully into either.

Most wearers find it long lasting, with others calling it moderate, and the sillage is mostly moderate, sometimes strong. It is voted for autumn and winter and favoured for the evening. Worn by anyone, it suits nights out, bars and cold-weather gatherings, for someone who likes boozy tobacco scents with a sweet, slightly mischievous twist.
