1861 Renaissance Body Oil — An Alcohol-Free Xerjoff Renaissance Perfume Oil
HumanSafe™ Verified Perfume Oil — Silky, Skin-Close & Cruelty-Free
1861 Renaissance Body Oil captures the spirit of Xerjoff Impression 1861 Renaissance in its most intimate form: a Xerjoff Renaissance perfume oil with no alcohol, made to melt into the skin rather than evaporate off it. The same crisp citrus-floral character — bright bergamot, dewy lily-of-the-valley, soft musk — arrives through a silky roll-on that glides over pulse points and releases slowly with your body heat. Formulated in-house in California with every ingredient disclosed, this alcohol-free perfume oil is for people who want their fragrance felt up close, not announced across the room. Available in 0.33 fl oz / 10 ml and 0.13 fl oz / 4 ml roll-ons.

In oil form, the opening is gentler than any spray. Amalfi lemon and tangerine glow rather than sparkle, softened by bergamot and green petitgrain — a citrus that settles onto the skin instead of bursting into the air around you.
Within minutes, delicate lily-of-the-valley and velvety rose bloom beneath a cool breath of mint. Worn this close, the heart reads as a clean, quietly romantic citrus floral perfume oil — the kind of scent someone notices only when they lean in.
Because oils let the base speak earlier, warm musk, amber, Virginia cedar and earthy patchouli surface sooner than they do in the spray, wrapping the florals in soft, skin-like warmth. The result is a true skin scent: personal, polished and yours alone.
Performance & Wear
1861 Renaissance Body Oil is built for closeness, not reach. With no alcohol to flash off, the scent stays on the skin and unfolds slowly as body heat warms the oil, giving 8–12 hours of soft, skin-close wear under typical conditions. Roll it onto wrists, the base of the throat and behind the ears, then let it absorb without rubbing. As a sealed roll-on perfume oil, it slips into a pocket or purse for leak-free touch-ups.

How It Compares to Xerjoff Impression 1861 Renaissance
1861 Renaissance Body Oil shares a similar profile to the luxury original, built in the same style with comparable top, heart and base notes — then translated into an alcohol-free oil. Where the designer version is worn as an Eau de Parfum spray at premium retail pricing, this version offers a gentler, skin-first way to wear the same refined aesthetic at a fraction of the cost. Think of it as the Xerjoff Renaissance oil dupe for those who prefer their fragrance felt rather than announced.

Who Should Wear This
Made for those who love 1861 Renaissance but find sprays too loud. Wear it to the office, on flights and in close quarters, where a personal scent is more considerate than a cloud. It suits warm days, when heat amplifies alcohol-based sprays, and skin that prefers formulas without alcohol — it's a natural perfume oil for dry skin, where sprays tend to fade fastest. Reach for it on date nights and slow weekends, or gift it to someone who values understated luxury in its most personal form.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does 1861 Renaissance Body Oil smell like?
A fresh citrus-floral: Amalfi lemon, tangerine and bergamot over lily-of-the-valley and rose, softened by mint and settling into musk, amber, cedar and patchouli. In oil form the citrus is gentler and the musky base appears sooner, so it feels warmer and closer to the skin than the spray.
Is this a Xerjoff Renaissance perfume oil dupe?
Yes. 1861 Renaissance Body Oil shares a similar profile to Xerjoff Impression 1861 Renaissance, built in the same style with comparable notes, and delivered as an alcohol-free roll-on oil. We've captured the spirit of the original, not claimed its identity.
How long does the body oil last?
Expect 8–12 hours of soft, skin-close wear. Because the oil stays close to the body, you'll notice it most when you move or when someone comes near. Applying to lightly moisturized skin helps it hold longer.
Is it alcohol-free and HumanSafe™ verified?
Yes to both. The fragrance is carried in an oil base with no alcohol, and the formula carries HumanSafe™ verification with its full ingredient list published on this page. As with any fragrance, patch test on a small area first.
How do I apply 1861 Renaissance Body Oil?
Roll a thin line onto clean pulse points — inner wrists, base of the throat, behind the ears — and let it absorb without rubbing, which breaks up the top notes. One swipe refreshes it during the day.
