What does Sex Elixir smell like?

It opens with night-blooming jasmine, a sensual skin accord and lactoscatone. Toward the heart, sandalwood, costus and woody notes take over, and musk and balsamic notes soften the base. Floral and sweet accents lead, while animal, powdery, resinous and leathery shades stay in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and summer barely registers. It is worn for evenings, nights out and leisure time. Masculine gets the most votes for character, but feminine follows not far behind, so it reads as open to both. Stéphane Humbert Lucas Manteuse and Heavendüft Oudh Sami have a close profile.
