Van Cleef & Arpels Rêve Elixir is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Nathalie Feisthauer, Émilie Coppermann, and Evelyne Boulanger. Rêve Elixir opens with Peach Blossom, Neroli, and Pear, settles into a heart of Iris, Osmanthus, Lily, and Frangipani, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Van Cleef & Arpels's Rêve Elixir carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This flanker is a divisive one. For some, it's a classy, balanced fruity-floral delight; for others, it's an overpowering fabric softener bomb. Test before you commit, unless you're into that blind-buy thrill.

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.

About

Rêve Elixir opens with a sweet, almost syrupy burst of peach blossom and pear, with a subtle lift from neroli. As it settles, a lush, clean floral heart emerges, showcasing creamy frangipani, delicate lily, and the sophisticated touch of iris and osmanthus. The dry-down warms into a soft, velvety embrace of amber, cedar, and sandalwood, providing a sensual, grounding finish to the fruity-floral medley.
