Elixir

6.1

Centauri Perfumes · 2023

Sweet · Gourmand · Spicy

Centauri Perfumes Elixir is a unisex fragrance built on cognac, rum and caramel, a sweet, gourmand blend deepened by coffee and sandalwood; it has been discontinued. Elixir wears as a strong fragrance: its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. The number of votes is small, so these ratings point to a tendency rather than a firm verdict. There are no season or occasion votes, and as a unisex scent it suits both men and women. Cognac, rum and caramel give it a boozy, sugary sweetness, which coffee sharpens with a slightly bitter edge. Sandalwood, patchouli and Texas cedar add a woody, faintly smoky depth, while musk gathers it all onto a soft base. The sweet and gourmand accords lead, with spicy and woody tones sitting behind.
