Which Should You Buy?
A seductive evolution of the Le Male DNA, Elixir Absolu is a powerhouse of creamy tonka, juicy plum, and glowing amber with an addictive spicy edge. Not for the shy, this is a statement scent for cool nights and stylish impact.
Strong Elixir follows Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Elixir, the sweet, honeyed gourmand take on the barbershop classic. The cool mint-lavender opening over creamy vanilla, honey and tobacco reads recognisably, though the dupe flattens the rich depth and fades faster than the powerhouse original.
