A lot of compliments and (positive) inquiries I got from wearing this scent. Thank you for reviewing this, Robin.

Glad you found the Elixir! A nicely happy ending to a sad story — it's terrible when an SO doesn't love what you love. Glad you found the Elixir!

The part of it that reads as tangy-sharp & masculine was burning his sinuses and making him miserable. He knew I loved wearing it and tried valiently to tolerate it but in the end, I gave the bottle away to my friend. So I was very happy to read the review for Elixer de Merveilles. I'd worn Bulgari Omnia for years and am very partial to that sort of deep sweet-spicy scent that comes across as sexy, not sugary. I'm nuts about Elixer and my sweetheart likes it, too. Also, thanks so much for your spot-on review. Even though you weren't falling in love with Elixer, I could tell it was something that I'd find remarkable!

So glad you found one to love, and you're so right, there is something for everyone! Wonder if they'll do a 4th "flavor" of Merveilles next year... Hi and welcome!

I'm new to your site. Great site! I have the Elixir and I love it and I read your review of the Elixir and the Eau and, while I like the Eau, for me it's too soft and feminine. The Elixir is a bit harsher, stronger and sexier. It has an edge to it that really turns me on. I guess that's why God invented so many ice cream flavors- there's something for everyone out there!

I just got yet another unsniffed in the mail, Sarah Horowitz new Love scent from Barneys. I'm kicking myself too right now. The clove note is amazing but the rose is just too much for me. Another one bites the dust, on to the next! I can't wait to try the elixir version, I am a gourmand lover! I just got yet another unsniffed in the mail, Sarah Horowitz new Love scent from Barneys.

Just want one more scent I'll love! Elixir des Merveilles wasn't really a "meh"...it isn't a dull scent. Just not what I had in mind.
