Elaborate is a controversial scent, one so polarising you will either love it or hate it. It is a musky leather which has been recreated by a select few other perfume houses, namely Fragrance du Bois with their release of PM which is very similar, better in fact. The leather is not as expected, it is nothing less than unconventional to say the least - slightly metallic, sharp and obnoxiously strong. It doesn’t smell like civet, but there is a sharp muskiness to it, turning the scent almost sour. As I said some will hate it, as for me I really enjoy it but I think PM does this scent profile better, with a little more going on. Some have said it smells like cocaine, I would not know. But it certainly does not smell of anything natural or delicate - this is boldly synthetic and almost otherworldly, in a nice way. I’m glad to have a 10ml but could never get through a full 100ml bottle.
