When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This fragrance is incredibly potent with significant sillage and longevity, making it unsuitable for an office environment where it could easily overwhelm. However, its dark, sensual profile and reported ability to trigger strong reactions from others make it perfect for a romantic date or a formal evening occasion, though it’s a bit much for casual daytime wear.

About

Hypnotic Poison Elixir plunges you into a luxurious depth, kicking off with the intriguing bite of star anise and licorice, which quickly melts into a rich, sweet vanilla heart. Jasmine adds a touch of creamy white floral intrigue, all underscored by a soft, spicy balsamic warmth that lingers intimately on the skin, a true oriental vanilla for the senses.
