Erba Pura is a highly polarizing Xerjoff fragrance that inspires passionate love-it-or-hate-it reactions. While devoted fans praise its uplifting fruity character, exceptional longevity, and consistent compliments, detractors find its nuclear-level performance intrusive, its synthetic fruitiness cloying, and report frequent migraine triggers. The fragrance's extreme projection and lack of development throughout the day are central to both its appeal and criticism.
