Volatility of notes: why the fragrance changes on the skin
You spritzed your favorite perfume in the morning, but by evening your skin smells like a different ...
The world first encountered Elixir by Elie Saab in 2023. A feminine fragrance belonging to the east and floral families. The fragrance is presented as eau de parfum.
Country of origin — Lebanon: no wonder the fragrance turned out this refined. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The note pyramid of Elixir is shaped as a continuous scent journey, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The signature of Elie Saab comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum emphasizes the right density and pace of development.
The profile is feminine, which clarifies the composition character.
In the first seconds you sense radiant lemon-bergamot opening notes: Mandarin and Neroli. Exactly these 2 notes form a burst of citrus freshness that is impossible to miss.
In the middle phase you notice Iris carrying a velvety rose-iris direction. At the foundation the line is anchored through Amberwood, Benzoin and Myrrh, reinforcing a thick resinous trail.
At the note-group layer the composition is built around Citrus, Floral, Wood and Balsamic. The palette also extends to Gourmet and Whiteflower. Within olfactory families the composition sits in East and Floral.
In summary Elixir reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best experienced on skin.
