Xerjoff Three UAE Exclusive: The Fruity Floral Oasis in the Green Bottle, Explained
Xerjoff Three is the bright, fruity floral of the Xerjoff UAE Exclusive collection, and the one number in the set that feels at home on a warm day. Davana, pear, quince, bergamot and red fruits open it, violet, lavender, rose and benzoin form the heart, and a long base of oud, sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli, vanilla, tonka and a touch of sugar finishes it. Xerjoff says wearing it is "akin to walking through a desert oasis". About 70 people a month search Google for "xerjoff 3" on Keyword Planner, and almost nothing written answers them, so this guide covers what Three smells like, what davana is, and how Three differs from the other green bottle, Two.
What is Xerjoff Three?
Three is the third of seven perfumes Xerjoff created in honour of the United Arab Emirates. Its first public outing was Beautyworld Middle East in Dubai in late October 2025, and it reached the boutique that December for Eid Al Etihad, the UAE's National Day. Its product page titles it "a Dubai boutique exclusive", and like every bottle in the set, its colour comes from the national flag. Three is green.
Xerjoff calls Three "an upbeat perfume that takes advantage of nature's bounty through its exquisite blend of fruity and floral notes". Our guide to the Xerjoff UAE Exclusive collection shows how it fits with the other six.
What does Xerjoff Three smell like?
It opens juicy and bright, softens into florals, and settles into a warm, creamy wood.
| Stage | Notes | What they bring |
|---|---|---|
| Top | Davana, pear, quince, bergamot, red fruits | Juicy orchard fruit with a berry sweetness |
| Heart | Violet, lavender, benzoin, rose | Soft florals wrapped in a gentle resin |
| Base | Oud, cedarwood, patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla, cashmere wood, sugar, amber, musk, tonka bean | A long, creamy, woody finish |
Pear and quince set the tone. Quince is a fragrant, golden fruit related to the apple and pear, with a perfumed, honeyed scent of its own, and together they give Three its orchard freshness.
Rose, violet and lavender take over in the heart. Fragrantica's launch coverage describes "soft floral tones of violet, lavender, and rose", with benzoin adding "a comforting warmth".
The base is the longest in the collection, with ten notes. Sandalwood, cashmere wood and tonka make it creamy, cedarwood and patchouli add structure, and a touch of oud and sugar gives depth without weight.
What is davana?
Davana is the least familiar note in Three, and the one that ties the fruit together. It comes from Artemisia pallens, an aromatic plant from India. Its oil is described as fruity, with hints of berry, blackcurrant, dried fruit and apricot, and it is used in perfumes with a sweet, fruity character.
In Three, davana sits at the top with pear, quince and red fruits. It deepens their juiciness and adds a slightly boozy, dried-fruit warmth, so the opening feels ripe rather than sharp. It is one reason Three smells fruity without smelling like a candy.
The oasis idea
Xerjoff built Three around one image:
"Experiencing the scent of Three is akin to walking through a desert oasis and feeling the senses nourished by the sights and smells of the lush surroundings." (Xerjoff)
The fruit and flowers are the oasis, green and abundant, and the warm, sandy base of sandalwood, amber and tonka is the desert around it.
That makes Three the most cheerful of the seven. Where Six is smoky and Five is formal, Three is light enough for the daytime and easy to like on the first spray.
Xerjoff Three vs Xerjoff Two: the two green bottles
Three and Two share green glass and both open with fruit. The difference is in where they end up.
| Xerjoff Three | Xerjoff Two | |
|---|---|---|
| Glass | Green | Green |
| Character | Fruity floral | Fruity oriental |
| Top | Davana, pear, quince, bergamot, red fruits | Lemon, passion fruit, peach, cardamom, tagetes |
| Heart | Violet, lavender, benzoin, rose | Violet, amber, osmanthus |
| Base | Oud, cedarwood, patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla, cashmere wood, sugar, amber, musk, tonka | Musk, oud, vanilla, leather |
| Mood | Bright and daytime | Darker and evening |
Both list oud and violet. Three wraps them in rose, sandalwood and sugar, while Xerjoff Two pairs them with osmanthus and leather. Our guide to Xerjoff Two explains it in full. Pick Three for daylight, Two for the evening.
Who Xerjoff Three suits
Three is for people who want a happy, easy perfume with real depth underneath. It works well if you:
- Like pear, quince and red fruit notes.
- Want a rose that feels fresh rather than heavy.
- Need one of the seven that works in spring and in the daytime.
- Like a creamy sandalwood and tonka finish.
In our view Three is a spring and autumn daytime scent: long lunches, relaxed weekends, even the office. Two or three sprays will do.
How to wear Xerjoff Three
Three is the most versatile of the seven, so it can be worn more freely than the darker numbers. Spray the neck and wrists in the morning and the fruit will carry you through the first part of the day before the creamy base takes over in the afternoon. In summer heat, one spray on clothing keeps the fruit bright. If you plan to own two of the collection, Three makes a natural daytime partner to one of the evening numbers, such as Six or Five.
Three and the rest of the collection
If Three appeals, look at its neighbours. Xerjoff Seven is soft and creamy, with pear, coconut and vanilla. Our guide to Xerjoff Four covers the honeyed date perfume, and our guide to Xerjoff Five covers the rose and oud. For more bottles made for the Emirates, see our article on Dubai exclusive perfumes.
