El Capitán Elixir
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, yet a certified compliment-puller. While some find it cloying or distinctly 'Axe-like', many others praise its sweet, masculine charm and impressive staying power. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that thrives in cold weather.
This one's a slow burner, not an instant hit, but give El Capitán Elixir a second chance and you'll find a complex, amber-led scent that's far more interesting than first sniff suggests. A solid, unique offering from Gulf Orchid.
