What does Elixir smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evening and night-out wear, with some leisure use too. As a unisex scent it doesn't lean toward one gender.

It opens with copaiba balsam and floral notes. The heart holds Canary Islands juniper, estragole, labdanum and cypriol, and the base settles into gurjum balsam, labdanum, Laotian oud and amber. The overall feel is oriental and creamy, with an animal touch that sharpens the resinous spiciness. Xerjoff Elixir and Xerjoff Malesia have a close profile.
