What does Elixir smell like?

The top opens with fruity notes, raspberry, apricot and leathery notes together. In the heart, lily of the valley and cotton candy add a floral, creamy sweetness. The base of frankincense, musk, leather and patchouli settles it onto a woody, slightly smoky, leathery foundation.

Both longevity and sillage are rated strong, though these ratings rest on a small number of votes. Its dense sweetness suits cooler weather best. It reads neither strictly masculine nor feminine. Al Ambra Loren and Xerjoff Opera have a close profile.
