Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage, coupled with its generally 'girly' and 'easy to love' profile, make it ideal for casual day wear. While pleasant, it's not quite robust enough for formal events or intense sport.

About

Aphrodisiac Elixir opens with a vibrant burst of red apple and juicy raspberry, sharpened by a touch of tart rhubarb and zesty grapefruit. This lively fruit cocktail mellows into a heart of creamy jasmine sambac and rich tuberose, with a hint of romantic rose. The base settles into a comforting blend of warm vanilla, sweet praline, and soft sandalwood, all cushioned by a gentle musk.
