What does Signature Elixir smell like?

Red orchid comes first; at the heart, vanilla absolute and resins soften the scent into a powdery, creamy sweetness. Amberwood in the base rounds off the gourmand feel with a woody warmth. Floral and fruity tones keep the sweetness balanced, and a synthetic sheen gives it a modern edge.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind and summer rarely chosen. It suits everyday wear, the office and evenings out alike, and most voters find it feminine. Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid and Carolina Herrera Good Girl Blush Elixir have a close profile.
