Jeffrey belongs to Spiritica's Crime Collection, a conceptual series from the Italian house built around figures from criminal history. Spiritica presents it as a narrative work rather than an easy wear, and it is a deliberately confronting composition.
The idea came from founder Daniele Muratori Caputo, with Paolo Cerizza and Lorenzo Orlandi Berti on the composition. It opens cold and almost clinical, iced beer and white orange over live yeast and acidic aldehydes. The heart is dense and airless, clove set against metallic and sweat-like facets. The drydown is sweet and heavy, amber, birch and vetiver carrying accords of molten plastic and damp cellar.
The cap was made by Only the Dreamers, flocked and then lasered.
Top Iced beer, popper accord, white orange, live yeast, acidic aldehydes
Heart Dirty carpet, clove, clotted blood, human sweat, sharp blade
Base Molten plastic, damp cellar, amber, birch, vetiver
What does Spiritica Jeffrey smell like? Cold and sharp to open, with iced beer, white orange and live yeast over acidic aldehydes. The heart is dense, clove against metallic and sweat-like facets. It dries down sweet and heavy on amber, birch and vetiver, with molten plastic and damp cellar accords.
Is it an easy wear? No, and it is not meant to be. It is a conceptual fragrance from the house's Crime Collection, built to unsettle rather than to please.
Should I sample it first? Yes. Start with the 1.5mL sample and wear the perfume for a few days before the 50mL bottle.
What are the notes in Spiritica Jeffrey? Iced beer, popper accord, white orange, live yeast, acidic aldehydes at the top, Dirty carpet, clove, clotted blood, human sweat, sharp blade in the heart, and Molten plastic, damp cellar, amber, birch, vetiver in the base.
