Vivid Oud Elixir

Vivid Oud Elixir shares its bright mandarin, cumin and coriander opening with the perfume oil, moving through the same leather, tobacco and labdanum heart into an oud, sandalwood and frankincense base. Sold only as a 15ml spray rather than the house's usual 10ml or 100ml elixir sizes, it sits alongside Vivid Oud as part of the house's newest 2026 collection. The house states its elixirs are matured for ninety days in the dark, sealed in steel, roughly doubling their intensity versus the fresh oil, and puts the finished concentration at 30%+ oud oil against what it calls a typical fragrance's 10%. Take the house's six-hour longevity claim as a manufacturer statement rather than independently tested performance. As one of the newest releases in the range, it has not yet built up independent community reviews the way the older core scents have, so this verdict leans more heavily on the house's own copy than usual. Expect the same bold, room-commanding character as the oil, with more lift and reach thanks to the spray format.
