Elev Lewa is a unisex eau de parfum released in 2025 by Elev, a fragrance brand from the United Arab Emirates.
The composition is part of the Signature Edition collection and is built around a fresh citrus profile with aromatic, fruity and spicy nuances.
The name Lewa evokes an image of open space, fresh air and bright sunlight, while the composition itself comes across as focused, energetic and expressive.
This fragrance is for those who enjoy freshness without excessive simplicity and appreciate unusual accents in perfumery that can gradually change the mood of the scent.
Elev Lewa is presented as a unisex fragrance, so it can develop equally naturally on both women's and men's skin.
Its character combines sparkling citrus freshness, cool greenery and spicy dryness, allowing the composition to maintain a balance between lightness and individuality.
The fragrance's sillage is rated as very strong.
This is an important feature of Lewa: the eau de parfum is designed to make a noticeable impression and can create an expressive fragrance cloud around the wearer.
For everyday use, it is best to take the composition's intensity into account and apply a moderate number of sprays, especially indoors.
The fresh citrus opening makes this fragrance particularly suitable for warm weather, daytime looks, walks, travel and outdoor gatherings.
At the same time, its strong sillage gives it confidence, so Lewa can also work well for evening occasions when you want to leave a noticeable yet distinctive impression.
The exact dosage for application to skin and clothing is not specified in the available information.
Given its very strong sillage, it is sensible to start with a small number of sprays, let the fragrance unfold and only then intensify it if necessary.
Elev Lewa is worth trying for fans of citrus and spicy compositions who want more than ordinary lemon freshness.
Here, juicy blackcurrant and citrus tones create a dynamic opening, basil and coriander add green spiciness, while carrot seed lends the finish a dry, slightly earthy nuance.
In terms of mood, Lewa may appeal to those looking for a distinctive warm-weather fragrance with good longevity and active sillage.
Among options with a similar fresh citrus direction, you might consider Tom Ford Mandarino di Amalfi, Dior Eau Sauvage and Tom Ford Mandarino Di Amalfi Body Spray. However, Elev Lewa stands out for its combination of basil, coriander and carrot seed.
This 2025 release continues Elev's focus on creating modern compositions with a bold presentation and an immediately recognizable character.
Lewa reflects the brand's interest in the contrast between radiant citrus notes and more complex green and spicy nuances. It therefore feels not simply like a fresh fragrance, but like a distinctive statement within the Signature Edition collection.
Information about the perfumer, other concentrations and an official website for this release is not available.
