A very interesting surprise! A somewhat different take on vanilla.
This was a blind buy for me, and a successful one I might add.
When I read about the notes I thought this was going to be a very floral vanilla, but it doesn’t have a pronounced floral feel. Instead it is a slightly green and surprisingly clean vanilla, not the usual dessert sweetness, but almost dry with a leathery tinge in the drydown. It’s something woody about it as well.
At first I was a bit sceptical, because this did not smell anything like I expected – but Vanilla Elixir is growing on me with light speed. I can’t stop sniffing my arm.
Sillage is moderate – after the drydown it’s more like a skin scent. Longevity is good – lasts more than 6 hours on my skin.
It is a great plus that the scent is natural and contains organic ingredients. 🙂
