Description
Join the Club Collection includes ten perfumes representing ten different kind of virtual clubs. Fatal Charme is about elegance, glamour and fashion; Ivory Route is an adventure and travelling club; Marquee represents a theater club; Kind of Blue is all about jazz; 40 knots is a yachts club; Ascot Moon is a horse club; Birdie is for golf lovers; Comandante is for fine cigar lovers; Shunkoin is for meditation and More than Words captures the world of writers and poets.
The ingredients of these fragrances are to be kept a secret. However, each fragrance will have its identification card with a number which one could use to join the real club of the owners of these perfumes. That’s how the concept goes from virtual clubs to forming a real one.
The bottles of the fragrances are made out of authentic blue glass; not the tinted kind but the glass of which the production is limited and are very rare.
Fatal Charme was launched in 2012. The nose behind this fragrance is Chris Maurice.

Lovely! I think it leans a touch to the feminine. I’m in a 28 degree temp room and it’s blooming beautifully in the warmth.
It is powdery and a touch aldehydic and sweet. It does though have some umph from the spices and tobacco backing it. They sound a curious combination on paper but it really works.
I think I could wear this anywhere really. It does make me think of More Than Words. It is like a very soft version of it but with the addition of orris and aldehydes. The same sweetness. MTW is lovely but it is an OUD BOMB!
I get good longevity but sadly it retracts back to a skin scent quite quickly.

its got this perfume as gift from one of my friends. But really this perfume is not which I expect frome xerjoof. Because it’s very strong and sharp which is not good especially for men. But try to use it by wearing it and mix it with other orinteal perfume like amber and , oud perfumes ets.
4/10

For my nose this smells like a men sweat after 3 hours, very very manly. Can not imagine wearing this scent as I am a delicate, fine woman in pastel color.
Reminds me exactly of Sospiro Accento, but Sospiro has more power, is long-lasting and the silage is bombastic.
OPEN – :
Very powdery aldehydic with a glamorous vibe. Fatal Charme would be the perfect scent for a sensual, seductive woman with lots of confidence.
Excellent performance.

Xerjoff continues to surprise me with scents that are unlike any other. I know the “Join the club” line from this house doesn’t get as hyped up as some of the other scents they’ve produced – but I’ve definitely fallen for the ones I’ve tried, and I’m intrigued to try the others gone un-sniffed!
Fatal Charme was the first perfume in the past hundred-or-so that I’ve tested that made me feel something. What a painfully beautiful fragrance.
The opening is ultra feminine; Dainty, crisp, effervescent and bubbly. The combination of powder & aldehydes in the note pyramid led me to believe that this would be a dated, old-fashioned type of scent… but it’s actually done in a very modern way! Fizzy, marshmallow-sweet aldehydes, and crisp-powdery-vagueness, like marzipan, or sugar-coated easter almonds with an edge. Really makes you want to snuggle into your arm! Although not listed, I get the tiniest bit of citrus woven through here.
It’s hard to describe how perfectly synthesized this fragrance is – wonderful sillage, melodic scent, but super soft in texture. Sugared & sweet, but with a velvety smooth depth. Ladylike, but not stuffy! Powdery, without being dry or chalky. This can safely be “an aldehyde-based perfume for those people who don’t normally like aldehylic fragrances”.
(This one *does* lose me a little in the drydown, with it’s crunchy-burnt-resinous-ambregris-tobacco combo thing that lingers on my skin… but the first several hours are perfection.)

Wow, I have had a sample of this for several months, and I never tried it until today. It is stunning! It’s powdery, comforting, like a marshmallow, but not too sweet. It is so good, can’t stop smelling myself. Great sillage and longevity as well (it should have because of it’s huge pricetag), the only downsides I could find is that it has such an ugly bottle, and it’s super expensive. I enjoy it very much, and I will be using my sample very carefully. Once in my life when I can afford it, I will buy this.
Gartmeele – :
Fatal Charme is one of the most beguiling scents I’ve ever come across … totally unexpected and the development on my skin is immensely desirable.
The first 15 minutes was an all out powdery, clean and crisp floral. I thought it was charming but not impressive nor can I find anything fatal about it. From that spring clean scent emerged a walloping surprise about 30 minutes after. What used to be fresh and powdery has morphed into a snuggly, sweet and captivating aroma. It is reminiscent of a warm vanilla-amber-tonka combo. It is only slightly sweet but exceptionally hypnotic.
If you decide to try it, make sure you give it time to develop on your skin. The transformation from beginning to end is quite the experience. I found another scent to love from Xerjoff.
sanek_av83 – :
À sweet blast of green vanilla, followed by a delicate vetiver . I was wondering if Luckyscent sent me the adequate sample or switched with Goutal’s Vanille Exquise. But I get some sweet iris in addition for thé first 30sec, very unusual. This parfume will require more time for a review.

Via Monte Napoleone in Milan as crowded during the day, as quiet at night. Only the boutiques brightly lit showcases remind you that this street is belonging to the tempting and beckoning world of high fashion. Like a little sigh, like the last critical look at the reflection in the mirror before going out into the night city, and the light cloud of Fatal Charme perfume insert you into a kaleidoscope of brilliant silk, leather bags and smell of new fine gloves. Everything wakes up to life, whirls, and fills the air with fragrance of inaccessible luxury. This fragrance unlike other is not a mask you will be able to skillfully hide your individuality, but it creates a situation, a sense of place and time in which the action takes place only with your participation. Everything in this world is virtual: your social status, and even your “freedom of choice”. That’s why the role of fashion is to bring you faraway from the real world, inventing more and more expensive and increasingly unavailable goals to which clubbers of Fatal Charme Club devote their entire life.

Via Monte Napoleone a Milano sempre affollata durante il giorno, si tranquillizza quando la notte scende sulla città. Solo le vetrine illuminate dei boutique ricordano che questa strada appartenesse al mondo allettante e invitante di Alta Moda. Come un piccolo sospiro, come l’ultimo critico sguardo verso lo specchio prima di tuffarti nella città notturna la nuvola profumata di Fatal Charme ti trascina in un caleidoscopio di seta lucida, borse in pelle pregiata e l’odore di nuovi sottilissimi guanti. Tutto immediatamente si risveglia, gira, e riempia l’aria di profumo di lusso inaccessibile. Questa fragranza a differenza di altri non è una maschera che ti permettesse di nascondere la propria individualità, crea invece una situazione, un senso di luogo e di tempo in cui l’azione avviene solo con la tua inevitabile partecipazione. Tutto in questo mondo è virtuale: il tuo stato sociale, e anche la tua “libertà di scelta”. Ecco perché il ruolo della moda è di portarti lontano dal mondo reale, inventando traguardi sempre più costosi e sempre più irraggiungibili, a quali i membri di Fatal Charme Club dedicheranno tutta la loro vita.
