Xerjoff Casamorati 1888 Gran Ballo — a women's EDP from the Italian niche house Xerjoff's Casamorati 1888 retro-Italian collection. Sergio Momo translates 19th-century Italian ballroom aesthetics into perfumery: the opening offers a soft citrus-fruit entry of mandarin and tree-fruit, the heart serves a saturated floral middle of jasmine, gardenia and honeysuckle, the base creates a classical Italian vintage gourmand-floral aura of vanilla, caramel, sandalwood and grey amber. Built on the "grand ballroom" concept — the 19th-century European ballroom atmosphere. Sillage very strong, longevity 10-12 hours. Autumn-winter, evening events, opera, romantic dinners.

Xerjoff Casamorati 1888 Gran Ballo — the perfumery version of the 19th-century ballroom
Xerjoff Casamorati 1888 Gran Ballo is the women's EDP from Xerjoff's Casamorati 1888 collection. Often typed as "Xerjoff Gran Ballo", "Casamorati Gran Ballo", "Xerjoff feminine Gran Ballo". The name reads "grand ball" in Italian — the perfumery version of the 19th-century Italian and European ballroom-dance atmosphere.
The floral-gourmand weave of mandarin, gardenia and vintage vanilla-caramel
Xerjoff founder Sergio Momo translates 19th-century Italian ballroom aesthetics into perfumery. The opening offers a soft citrus-fruit entry of mandarin and tree-fruit — the classical Italian vintage perfumery opening pattern. The heart weaves a saturated indolic-vintage floral middle of jasmine, gardenia and honeysuckle. The base unfolds the composition's "ballroom" spirit — vanilla, caramel, sandalwood and grey amber form a classical Italian vintage gourmand-floral base. Sillage very strong, longevity 10-12 hours — the beast-mode expected from Xerjoff.
Who Gran Ballo is for, and where
Most popular for ages 25-65. For the expert women's perfume user past designer-niche. For the woman drawn to vintage Italian classical feminine aesthetics, with "ballroom-aristocrat" aspirations. Ideal seasonally for autumn-winter — the vintage gourmand-floral base opens a richer aura in cold weather. Place: evening events, opera, ballet, romantic dinners, the "sophisticated feminine signature" role.
The vintage Italian aesthetic of the Casamorati 1888 collection
The Xerjoff Casamorati 1888 collection takes its name from a nostalgic point in Italian perfumery history — 1888, the modern beginning of Italian Renaissance perfumery. Each composition opens a different chapter of this vintage atmosphere: Gran Ballo (women's ballroom), Lira (feminine honey-amber), Italica (rose-jasmine classical feminine), Bouquet Ideale (citrus-floral) and Mefisto (masculine vintage). All share the same golden-burgundy classical bottle design.
