Just unboxed this and have been wearing it now for 10 minutes or so, so it is still developing. Now, I first smell incense and leather (more so incense). The incense starts to fade allowing the leather to come up a little more. Next, I smell amber and a little bit of the vanilla but not much and the incense seems to continue to hang out in the background a little bit. Lastly, seems the cedar and musk is there ever so slightly to my nose. All in all this isn’t bad, actually its good if you like middle eastern fragrances because that is exactly what you are getting. I don’t love it, but of course glad to have it and looking forward to wearing it outside to see how it will behave. For now, I give it a 6 out of 10. I can’t speak to the projection right now, but it is strong with the first spray. A female coworker just came into my office and said she liked it (smelled it in the air). i will update later after wearing it fully, but this was my first impression. Happy Sniffing

Visualizing hard to describe not what I expected. Almost like your in some club theres some leather chairs around maybe and you get served your very gin and tonic drink that has some dark never ending smoky incense aura coming from it. Like the drink is on fire or something. You keep smelling all this sparkly citrus freshness but the dark smoke continues to come from it. Perhaps the drink is haunted!?? that might be a more “fun” way to describe.
Didn’t care for it myself, but inevitably when I think of 24 gold etc I think of the great sweet well 24 gold. So smelling this was unexpected out of nowhere. So perhaps in that sense it makes it automatically kinda interesting to me in a way. But again at the end of the day not something I feel inclined to own personally.

Following the theme of the Platinum 24 fragrances (Platinum, Platinum Oud), Platinum Elixir is heavy-handed with the rose note. Comparison-wise, it’s definitely greener along the lines of the original Platinum and less the commoner rose/oud pairing of Platinum Oud. But the rose is not just green; it’s also sweet and jammy along the lines of Tauerville Rose Flash.
I agree that the note breakdown is incomplete here without rose, which is likely a heart note. The opening is slightly greener with a burst of citrus, then it very quickly loses its brightness and devolves into a rose-dominant fragrance for the remainder of its life, involving some blend of cedar, vanilla, and musk to create a soft, smooth base.
Overall, it’s a pleasant composition. Though no other members of the line have been able to dethrone the original 24 Gold in terms of the smoothness of the blend, 24 Elixir Platinum comes reasonably close, as it doesn’t seem to involve any points that would be a major turnoff.
Performance-wise, it’s not as strong as most of the rest of the line, partly because it’s smooth, but partly because I doubt the concentration label matters too much for this line. Still, overall very strong performance for an EDP at its price ($80). I might have to nab a bottle if I can get a good deal.
7 out of 10

Has a very soapy vibe to it going on
With some faint woods in the background

The Note break down doesn’t look right. What is listed is the similar to what is listed on Scent Story, however I got some samples a couple months back and this definitely has a faint hint of rose in it.
I also have Rasasi Tobacco Blaze which smells similar, the difference being this has rose and tobacco blaze has apricot, which is also list in the notes here, but there is no apricot that I can detect in my Platinum Elixir samples…
