Nio (EDP)

"Nio is a fresh woody-citrus fragrance from Xerjoff that debuted in 2009 and is widely recognized as one of the house’s signature warm-weather compositions. Its character centers on sparkling bergamot and neroli layered over sharp green facets, aromatic spice, and a refined woody-vetiver base. Compared with simpler citrus fragrances, Nio is generally described as more luxurious, greener, and more structured, with a polished niche style. The fragrance is often perceived as masculine-leaning by some wearers, though it is also sold and discussed as unisex by retailers and reviewers. A major part of its reputation comes from combining bright summer freshness with stronger-than-expected longevity for the genre. In the Xerjoff portfolio, it remains one of the most referenced choices for elegant spring and summer wear."
