"The xubuntu session differs from the xfce session in that it applies 
some of the xubuntu-specific enhancements to Xfce (themeing, wallpaper, 
some config changes, etc). Have a look at the files in the 
xubuntu-default-settings package." [1]

Sums it up.

To check it out - you could try Toz's suggestion from the same post [1]

"The best way to test and view the differences is to create two new 
accounts, and for one, select Xubuntu session and the other xfce session 
then compare. (You can also delete the ~/.config/xfce and 
~/.cache/sessions folder between logins to reset xfce, but you will lose 
all customizations)."
