A very pretty, pink, fruity musk. Sure I can get many of the fruits listed here from it. the raspberry/rose, the delicate peach/apricot fuzz but also a kind of pear juice. Fades down to a floral, musky scent which is very pleasant, clearly fantastically well made, it's lovely. Some may not get that nuance and get herbal essences shampoo from it, and I wouldn't blame you for that. For me though it's a theme that you've smelled before, only elevated slightly, is it worth the money 'elevated'? That's up to you. A perfume I never could or would wear because it's way too overtly feminine for me, and I'll wear lots of women's perfumes without missing a beat, some are a step too far and this one.
Usually I’m no stranger to wearing scents that lean feminine or are marketed to women, but Elixir goes way too far down that feminine path for me personally. However, if I smelled this on a woman it would be incredible. This scent is dominated by a fruity core - juicy, tart raspberries combined with powdery, fuzzy peaches is both delectable and alluring, with an ever so subtle fizz coming from bergamot. This fruitiness is then married by an array of thick and powdery florals; most notably rose, violet and heliotrope. Elixir is the scent of a young woman in my eyes. The attention-grabbing fruitiness contrasted by the traditional powdery florals combines perfectly when smoothed out by creamy vanilla, orris and musks. Overall this is a delicately beautiful scent.
