Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Essencial Elixir
This Brazilian gem is a darker, boozier take on CH Men Prive, delivering a smoother, more sophisticated, and frankly, better blended experience. It's a proper grown-up scent, perfect for making a statement without shouting. Top marks for luxury on a budget.

Our Verdict - Ralph's Club Elixir
This one's a proper grown-up scent for those who want to smell expensive and collected, but be warned: some find it a muddled mess or too sweet. It's divisive but those who love it, really love it, praising its luxurious blend and beastly performance.

Its strong sillage and prominent boozy-leather accords make it less suitable for office wear, but its elegant and warm profile is perfect for dates, evening events, and formal gatherings. The powerful projection can be invasive in close quarters, while its complex depth is wasted on casual sports.
