Elixir by Elie Saab is a feminine eau de parfum that opens on luminous neroli. Iris brings a powdery touch to the heart, while benzoin, myrrh and amber woods settle into a resinous, warm base.
Neroli, floral and tangy, and iris, powdery and buttery, together occupy the top and heart: one stands out for the acidity of its flower, the other for the butteriness of its powder.
Benzoin, between vanilla and caramel, myrrh, warm and balsamic, and amber woods, tobacco and dust, come together in the base, from vanilla to balsamic by way of tobacco.
