What T23 proved is that there is no overlapping feel that the Torino fragrances aim to produce and that's what people disliked, the fact that there's no noteworthy accord overlap with 21 and 22. T23 smells like a vintage, oldschool neroli bomb on an ylang-ylang & patchouli-driven cashmere base. In Xerjoff's own catalogue, it's 1888 done with prominent white florals and the woody accord from Bouquet Ideale. I think it was Eau de Erica who said it had "an old money feel" and that is classical PR-lingo for "this smells like it belongs in the 20th century".

I'd made the same guess DivineFrag. Figured it was that it's quite different, and people expected some kind of flanker. It sounds more to my taste than the others, so I'm intending to give it a try.
