    40 Knots, it’s fresh without being fresh as most know it. The florals in here are so well blended that you won’t really know they’re there unless you’re looking for them (there’s Rose blended in there for example). I find they really add to the airy sea breeze feel (or accord?) to go with the sea water accord in this. Then I get a nice soft Amber on top of the woods. I know what you mean about having an accord of Enigma, but I find it is a bit more soapy due because of the unmentioned florals in here. It’s also softer and more ethereal, but still loud.
    It’s simply put one of the most versatile scents I have in my collection (probably around 300 frags now lol), and it’s done without being too far into one direction (not too much citrus, not too many darker notes, not to many florals). Just an extremely well balanced and blended fragrance.
    Yes it has a resemblance to Ambre Nuit, and Enigma, but only as a light accord. Very much in the affect that Amouage Reflection Man has an accord of Jean Paul Gaulthier’s Le Male, where you get a light shadow of the other fragrance in the composition, but it is very much a different/it’s own fragrance.
    Phenomenal quality, performance, and presentation.
    Love seeing the bonus Niche videos and thank you for that! Can’t wait for the next one.

    Hey Ash. To my nose I don't get the Enigma resemblance but regardless 40 Knots is a hidden gem among the JTC collection. It's a luxurious, softly sweet, semi aquatic, lightly salty, ambery beauty. It makes me feel like I put on a warm cashmere sweater. The kicker is how versatile it is. Quite a stunner. Great review. 👏.

    Great review Ash. As much as I love Xerjoff I have to say that I’m not a fan of the newer bottle design. I spoke to Xerjoff to ask why the change and was told it was to combat counterfeiting with the older bottle designs being too easy to copy. I guess that makes sense!
