Zara Energetically New York Elixir is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Jo Malone. Energetically New York Elixir opens with Cardamom, settles into a heart of Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Suede and Sandalwood. Zara's Energetically New York Elixir carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

A divisive blend that some champion as Zara's best, while others dismiss it as a crude imitation. If you're after beast-mode performance and a familiar woody-spicy profile, this 'elixir' might just surprise you - just be wary of those pickle notes.

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, frequently described as 'beast-mode', make it a poor fit for office settings where it can be overwhelming. However, the warm, woody, and leathery accords are well-suited for dates and casual outings, providing a refined yet noticeable presence.

About

Energetically New York Elixir opens with a strong, aromatic hit of cardamom, sharp and almost green, catching you off guard. This spicy introduction quickly mellows, giving way to a rich, warm heart where creamy jasmine blooms with surprising depth. As it settles, a sophisticated base of soft suede and smooth sandalwood emerges, grounding the fragrance in a luxurious, lasting trail. It’s a bold, woody, and powdery scent with a leathery nuance.
