What does 5 Elixir smell like?

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, and it is worn mostly for evenings, nights out and leisure time. Almost nobody suggests it for summer. It doesn't lean clearly masculine or feminine, with votes split between the two.

The top opens with lily of the valley, spices and saffron, and the heart pairs lily of the valley with carnation. The base brings strawberry, tonka bean and vanilla sweetness, set on a powdery, creamy bed of white musk and amber. The accords read floral, spicy and oriental, with a resinous side.
