Birdie is Xerjoff's tribute to the exclusive golf clubs whose much-prized memberships come with significant prestige.
The sensations of playing a round on an impeccably-kept course are captured in Birdie: the calming effect of the tranquil, green surroundings, the cool breeze against your skin, and the earthen feel of the soil underfoot as you walk down the fairway.
The opening is a burst of freshly cut grass and morning dew, exactly like stepping onto a pristine fairway at dawn. It dries down to a sophisticated, clean warmth that lasted me a solid eight hours on skin. This one feels like quiet luxury in a bottle.
The opening burst is pure polished green — it genuinely smells like a fresh fairway at dawn, not a synthetic attempt at it. Wore it to a morning round and caught compliments from the caddie, which never happens.
The bottle feels classy on my shelf and the scent itself is beautifully refined, though I wish it lasted a bit longer on my skin than it does. It really does bring to mind a sunny afternoon on a well-kept fairway, which is exactly what I was hoping for.
