The Icon Elixir

I'll break it down honestly, right below: * Smells like (my nose): marine, very fresh, strong lavander core is definitely there, citrus scents are mild, as well as cardamom, meaning you can nearly feel them, but they are still there. * When to wear it?: almost everywhere, even for some special occasions, it might be a good fit; very versatile, no matter if it is day or night. *Age for wearing it: to me it might be a good fit specially, for young adults (above 18) or any age above 18. * Longevity: first 30 minutes, sillage is scandalous, but it turns down almost absolutely after 2 or 3 hours; you may want to re-apply at least one more time during the da; considering this is an EDP and a so called "elixir" longevity may be a little bit disappointing if you're not familiar with Banderas's scents (none of them is popular for strong projection or longevity). * Blind buy?: for me, a solid yes. It is a fragrance easy to wear, mass-appealing and very masculine. I use it, and projection might be scandalous by the first 30 minutes, but after 2 or 3 hours, you can barely feel it on your skin and even clothes.

Can't believe this is only just on here, I've had this for three months or so now.. I looked on here when deciding to blind buy or not.. It's honestly like an extra rich version of dunhill century Blue.. Imo.. But I've really enjoyed the performance on this.. Not loud after the 1st hour or two then settles within arms length but the scent trail is about a mile long.. It smells like so many other blue types of semi aquatic sweet easy reach and perfect for work.. As with all sweet blues just go easy on the sprays in the heat. Smells nothing like the edp I haven't got the edt as too many said it was sauvage like.? I love the two I have and will end up with the edt too I'm sure.. Nothing ground breaking, people will think you smell good they just won't remember what that smell was seconds after walking away. If your on a budget you could do alot worse.. I have tons similar a sweet freshie with some light woods, some depth and a clean non offensive musky dry down.. For £23 I'm happy..

Another elixir Antonio Banderas fragrances are made by the house of PUIG so a huge company (JPG , Paco rabanne, Carolina Herrera) The Icon elixir is very solid. Great pressurised atomiser. Eau de parfum concentration There's invictus platinum on the top of reminds me of but I'd say it is really a minor resemblance Icon elixir is spicy with overall masculine body spray aura but it's done very well and has a good performance which is a huge plus For around 30$ for 100ml (I paid £27 on e-bay ) it really is a good solid purchase. I do like it a lot 🤔

Really good scent from AB. Better than the other previous Icons. Pleasently sweet, fresh and spicy from the top. Creamy and woody from the middle and the base. Fixing the notes. Top: cardamom, mandarin, ginger. Minddle: lavender, musk, sea salt. Base: guaiac wood, cedarwood, amberwood, The atomizer very high quality pressurized!

Very solid. Everyone I showed it to said it smells great. Sweet fresh a bit synthetic and masculine. Pressurised atomiser and it's 25-30$ for 100ml.
