Forever Wanted Elixir

Very nonoffensive leather fragrance for sure. I've had TMW Parfum for a couple of years, and have worn it all of 2 or 3 times, it just smells like a grape soda vanilla vibe too much, the ginger is nice in it, but it just doesn't really feel like my vibe, as well as just feeling somewhat lacking overall for me. Sniffed this a week ago at Sephora, and almost bought it, but rather ended up thinking on it, and picking it up. Thankfully, I'll actually be using this bottle. Definitely my favorite that Azzaro has to offer. The opening is exceptionally fruity, a very distinct but rather artificial smelling raspberry note mixing with other fruity vibes, but I don't smell it as bergamot or mandarin orange. Within seconds a mass of leather sweeps in that lingers around through the longevity, the sweetness of the fruits here, with the cardamom just makes this an amazing leathery scent that sort of sits in its own little place. The leather note itself, sure it's kind of like Ombre Leather, but it isn't that same thick medicinal leather, this is like that, but sweet, pleasant and again, very inoffensive. Ombre Leather doesn't have this kind of sweetness or fruitiness really going on much at all. Would make for a great date night vibe in cooler weather, and would work well as a most situations kind of fragrance, but mostly in cooler weather, I don't see it being too great in hot weather at all, but the moment it's even under 60 outside, this is really good. Longevity is good, especially for the price, you get what you pay for, it'll stick around for 8-12 hours or so depending on the situation it seems, but as I get more wear's in, this review likely will change to be more accurate for my experience. Sillage is also decent, not a room filler, not intimate by any means, but it sits as a nice leathery bubble around you. All in all, again, very glad to have a bottle from this brand that I actually like and will enjoy, the Parfum just isn't for me at all, and I was sad about the brand not having much to suit me, until now. Smells amazing.

This is SOOO good! Off the top you get this very mass appealing leather with raspberry and a touch or orange . It's a fantastic opening. The raspberry does fade away somewhat quick but it keeps the citrus fruity vibe. You get light sage and cardamom then full dry down you get the clean designer leather some orange with a smidge of bergamot clean wood clean vetiver and what I feel is more sage from the mid . It smells great! If they would have found a way to keep hints of the raspberry to stay this would have easily been a fragrance of the year candidate which in my opinion it still is. If you are looking for a mass appealing leather leather fragrance that is fruity but not overly sweet definitely check this out . I really like that it is just sweet enough. An intense leather version of this would be mind blowing. I do not agree with the ombre leather comparisons. Similarities...... they are both clean leather fragrances. That's it . Ombre Leather smells like an expensive leather couch ( I love ombre leather) . This smells like a designer mass appealing leather. Aside from that they don't cross paths anywhere else . This can be worn by anyone over like 25. Definitely not a gym fragrance. Too loud for an office setting . It's more of a night out fragrance. Or you can just be a beast like me and wear it anywhere lol. Performance is pretty good. 6 hours easily. 4 sprays is good. Projects for a good 2 hours . I obviously love this and give it a 9/10

Es un perfume exquisito, en la salida se percibe mucho la frambuesa, pero después de unos minutos se va sintiendo más el cuero que termina predominando en la fragancia, si bien muchos dicen que desaparece la frambuesa, en mi experiencia yo la sigo notando. Estoy muy conforme con la duración, a mí me ha durado más de 8 horas en piel, proyectando las primeras 2-3 horas; después la proyección baja un poco. Las notas de salida pueden hacerla parecer una fragancia juvenil, pero la base (mi favorita) tiene notas más masculinas o elegantes, personalmente lo recomendaría para reuniones formales o fiestas (aunque no tanto para jóvenes en este caso); en mi opinión también puede ser usado para el colegio en invierno/otoño aplicando solo 1-2 sprays porque si no llena la habitación, pero como dije antes es medio elegante, así que podría ir bien con alguien que use polos o una chaqueta de cuero; pero si tu perfil es de adolescente fiestero y rebelde no va tanto con vos; yo lo recomendaría para alguien un tanto más maduro, pero no serio ni aburrido; al contrario es un perfume bastante seductor porque es seductor, acuerado cálido. IMPORTANTE: NUNCA usar en verano y menos para el colegio o el trabajo porque con 1 solo spray te llena la habitación y más en espacios cerrados. Además, yo recomendaría probar antes de comprar y no quedarse solo con las notas de salida, sino dejarlo para ver cómo evoluciona en tu piel.

Originally I had received this in my Sephora sampler set and loved it and heavily considering using my redeem for this bottle on a wim one day I just picked up a bottle of this and I don’t regret it. I get the raspberry heavy and I love it it’s sweet but different not something I’ve experienced much in my fragrance journey as it progresses it’s get a bit lighter mainly in the middle and once The dry down hits it’s back in your face with that bomb leather with this I have experienced 13 plus hours of longevity and I would give it a moderate to strong projection my girlfriend says 5 sprays is to much but 4 is just right she enjoys this on me quite a bit but she says with her women nose that it smells like car air freshener but she likes it which is truly the battle lol I have been using this nonstop for probably the past month and has quite literally been my signature this month I love the smell of this stuff and the quality is so up to par it definitely should be tried by anyone and everyone it’s quite universal easy winter fall fragrance and can be pulled off during the spring as well id also like to say there is a possibility of you go light on th sprays this can be a good date night fragrance for summer NIGHTS when it is cold don’t sleep on this if I run out another bottle will be purchased

Forever Wanted Elixir is a fruity, leathery, and spicy fragrance. The opening is sweet and fruity, with sweet citrus and a fruity note that I assume is raspberry, but from that moment on, the leathery accord is perceptible. As time passes, the sweetness gives way to spicy notes, and the leather note becomes more intense and more in tune with the cardamom. It's quite possible there are more notes, but these are the ones I notice most. Like most of the recent releases in the Wanted line, this fragrance is also more suitable for evening wear and/or cold climates and seasons, such as fall and winter. It could be worn for both casual and formal situations. The longevity of this fragrance on me has been quite good, lasting more than 10 or 11 hours, with an above-average sillage for the first hour, which then becomes average. At first, I thought it was similar to the new Stronger With You Parfum in terms of style, but later it distanced itself from it, although it could be used in similar situations. Of the cold-weather fragrances launched in 2025, this is one of my favorites. I'm still not sure I'll buy it because the city where I live is warm 8 to 9 months a year, so my fragrances for those climates will last me years.

I sampled it I store, I instantly knew I wanted this! I need this.. this is very similar to C.H Bad Boy parfum with that cannabis note. I love that one too!! But.... That Bad Boy didn’t last long on paper and less on skin. I’d like to see a boosted version of CH BB. Back to Azzaro for ever wanted Elixer, it’s better in every way imo and will most def replace CH BB edp if you have like that one... I respect ppl’s posts and opinions bcs this is either I LOVE IT or it’s THIS STINKS.. Depending on ppl’s size and quality of their collections, something that comes close to a niche bottle in your collection can easily be disregarded over personal preferences. In other cases $100 is a lot to one guy vs next guy only had to pay $50. Who’s going to be nicer about the note profile and performance? I refuse to look at notes or read bcs I do not want to be influenced by it before I can smell it. I want to like it without knowing anything about it. That way I’m not judging it in a biased way. If I can’t smell it’s, I’ll take the risk by note if Im brave. My collection has room for this bottle... it’s different enough but it’s also got its place for time and use based on my personality and life style.

#1706 in my “Tour de Fragrance” Got this spray sample from scentwithsense.com. This is a nice, long-lasting masculine scent with good silage. A cold weather scent that’s a little generic to me, and like many lavender men’s fragrances, leans to the barbershop vibe. Unlike many raspberry/leather scents this is not at all trying to be Tom Ford “Tuscan Leather”, which is definitely in its favor. Rasasi “Yuqawam” really has the "Tuscan Leather" clone market locked down I think. But it’s pretty much same-same as Arabiyat Prestige “Noire Absolu”, just a tad less woody, but which costs about half the price of this Azzaro. Also, this Azzaro is similar enough to the Gisada "Ambassador Intense”, a scent that I have had on the shelf for several years, that I’d say if you have the Gisada, you’d not bother with this, and if you don’t have this or the Gisada, you should get the Gisada. They cost roughly the same, but Ambassador Intense is a year rounder with the same high quality, fresher on the citrus, and has an incense note that adds a lot of interest to the scent for me. That said, this is a great scent, and if there were a good discount coupon on this I’d be in for a bottle.

This is one of the best releases of the year so far. It's mainly raspberry and leather with some spiciness. The lavender probably contributes to that sweetness too, but it's really well-blended and can't pick out the individual notes that well. It has a nicheness about it, but with that designer mass appealing DNA. It's a little braver than what I'm used to from these brands, but that's what makes it exciting to smell. I think it's an amazing masculine scent, but it has a slightly gourmand quality to it that will make it a crowd-pleaser. Smelling it just makes me smile. It's not a stinky leather or a challenging scent, it's very inviting and delicious. It's great to smell something more interesting from Azzaro as I haven't been impressed with some of the wanted flankers, but this one is absolutely amazing and stands on its own. If it didn't have the Wanted name I wouldn't have known it's part of the line. I did like Wanted by night EDP and I loved Most Wanted and I love this one and it's different enough from the rest that it's worth getting. 10/10

If you don't like strong leather you won't like it, the leather ruins it and it's not a crowd-pleaser or a safe blind buy. That said, it's a really good perfume, with strong projection and longevity. If you're into leather or heavy stuff like tobacco you will like it and it's really well-blended and high quality. And for the people who love "clones", I'll do a comparison - I tried Afnan Rare Carbon some time ago, the scent is not far from this Azzaro (they go after TF Tuscan Leather), and both have raspberry and leather. But the Afnan lasts much less, about 2 hours useful time, and after it evaporates, it leaves a horrible burnt asphalt or petroleum chemical smell that lingers forever, truly disgusting scrubber. That's not the case with Azzaro, the ingredients are quality and they all evaporate gradually, leaving a pleasant aroma at all times. 24 hours later I still feel the vanilla and woody notes, that's how good and lasting it is. I still prefer The Most Wanted Perfume, but this one is a close second from Azzaro.

I’ve never leaved a review on a fragrance but this is worth it man. if you don’t like leather, don’t get it. as soon as u spray it you get a burst of kind of muted fruitiness in a good way , that’s the raspberry mostly. as it dries down you get a sweet musk/woodiness with a touch of a flowerlike smell. what you’ll smell for the rest of the fragrances time , it’s pure leather with a small touch of the raspberry giving it sweetness added onto the leather with some woods. I’ve went to Sephora js to put it on off the tester and everyone I ask says it smells like “a man”. 100% recommend this to leather lovers dawg it is A BEAST especially with longevity for me it lasted around 8-9 hours on my arm and on my neck. out of my 23 colognes I have all designers including the brands YSL , Valentino , Parfums de Marly , acqua de gio, invictus , bad boy , stronger with you , jpg , Versace , spicebomb , and the 1 million line, this is hands down the best cologne I’ve smelt yet. it’s amazing dawg.

A retail store accidentally sold this to me today before its official release. They realized the mistake later and took it off the shelves.😭 I’ve been testing it today, and it’s really good. In the first few hours, you get a mix of raspberry and leather, with a hint of the classic Most Wanted DNA and a touch of smokiness. There’s definitely cardamom in there as well providing a freshness in it all and the leather is most prominent in the first hours. As it dries down, it becomes incredibly smooth, leaving behind a sweet and sexy scent. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what the sweetness is, but overall this is the least sweet and most mature version in the lineup. I don’t think it’s as mass appealing as the previous flankers, but it has a more refined feel. Projection and longevity are excellent, 12+ hours with strong projection for the first 3/4 hours. My favorite from the Most Wanted and already got a couple compliments. I highly recommended but definitely try it first!

Tried this in the mall, I thought this smelled really good so I decided to look around for a good price. I found this on aurafragrance for less than 87$ with free shipping and no taxes (what a win). When you first spray this on this smells a little similiar to another fragrance I own known as one million royal. After around 5 minutes it goes in it's own direction, however. People say after that 5 minutes this loses it's raspberry accord, which isn't true. Leather does become a lot more pungent in this fragrance, but the raspberry is still here in the background. Very sexy. The raspberry and leather are a bit synthetic, but I think this is the BEST in the wanted line. (I used to be a huge parfum glazer). If you can find this on discounters I would buy it, and use this for special occasions because of how unique it smells. I didn't test the performance yet but as of right now it appears to be the same as most wanted and the parfum flankers. BUY THIS NOW!!!!

Hey guys I smelled this in store on a strip. I like to label then strips and take a few home to see what still smells good after 1 week. I love this one and I would compare it to Bad Boy EDP that’s got the cannabis note. The Azzaro Elixer has this note called Wolf Wood if I’m not mistaken. It’s obviously an artificial note, maybe an accord based note blend but they both have that animal/leather/woody musk but I give longevity and power to Azzaro. I love BOTH the Bad Boy edp and Azzaro elixir but... if you have not bought the BB yet, the Azzaro will do everything BB does but longer lasting by far. The BB bottle is also clunky compared to this gold bottle and is more likely to tip over and will not be as easy to take with you on travels but the Azzaro is easy to store.

THE best designer offering of 2025, hands down. Not even an Azzaro glazer, but this one stands apart. I love Tumi 19 Degree, I love Ombre Leather. This is like the two of them smashed together. I had a mini fall/autumn fragrance haul because I could. I bought Azzaro Forever Wanted Elixir, Boss The Scent Magnetic & Givenchy Gentleman Society Ambree. This easily took the top spot for me, however not taking anything away from the other two because they are great also! Either way, as I said, the best designer frag of 2025 and easily one of the best releases overall this year. Class work by Azzaro here. Scent - 9/10 👃🏻 Price - 9/10 💲 Longevity - 9/10 ⌛ Sillage - 8/10 🌬️ Aesthetic - 9/10. 😍 Go pick this up! K Bye.

So since fragrantica hasn't added Forever Wanted Absolu, I will do my review here, upon first spraying it you get hit with some nice spices, before quickly turning to a kinda salty, spicy, sweet butterscotch, no booze to be found, but my guess is the whiskey is like a butterscotch note, anyways it then evolves to a incense bomb, with a subtle vanilla in the background, in the air it's more vanilla than incense, and 20 hours later the incense leaves and still getting whiffs of vanilla, it's quite strong too, also it's honestly quite impressed with the bold move from azzaro, quality is excellent for a designer, better than some niche's that I've tried, it's leaning niche imo actually, cheers 🥂

Shout out to @TripleB for hyping this up 😏👉👉All 69 men can't be trippin. As far as designer DNA's go I would say this is a slam dunk air travel commute scent. Ya couldn't offend a soul if you tried. Even if you drowned yourself, people will start to think the synthetic nylon seats are mamesh suede leather + it's like a Mediterranean gentleman just dropped his raspberry fritter and spilled his cardamom tea with a heavy-handed poor of gin in it. It's half savory gourmand and frisky confedence. No one smells this in the air and is expecting a dame in a dress. I suggest to go ahead and atomize your scrotum just in case there comes an opportunity to swipe your card in the mile high club.

Forever Wanted Elixir by Azzaro is a bold and intoxicating fragrance that instantly makes a statement. The opening is rich and sweet with warm, gourmand nuances that feel lively and seductive right from the start. As it develops, deeper amber, leather and spicy accords give it a smooth, refined character that’s both confident and unforgettable. The dry-down stays warm and cozy, lingering beautifully on the skin with a noticeable trail that draws compliments. Its performance is excellent; long-lasting and commanding without ever feeling too heavy. This is a scent I genuinely enjoy wearing and one that I absolutely love for its rich, alluring personality.

Love it! This is my type of scent. I'm getting a smooth leather, the raspberry and warm spice. The notes on here are pretty spot on. It's an attractive leather NOT an overpowering type of new boot/belt type of leather. I got it on sale for $90 I felt like it was a bit more than I wanted to pay but at the time it was the best deal out there. The price will go down just like the other scents from the same house/brand. Update: I'm wearing it to the office today and It's been 8 hours since I put on this fragrance and if I move my shirt I can still pick up on the great smelling leather/raspberry scent.

This is my favorite release from this year so far. It's a nice departure from the sweet gourmand DNA of the last few releases in the Azzaro lineup and instead goes for a more fruity sweetness similar to the OG Wanted (want to clarify they don't smell the same at all). The raspberry and leather are really nice additions to the Wanted line, it's different in a good way. It's definitely does remind me of a sweeter Ombre Leather. I give this one an 8/10, smells wonderful and I'll be picking up a bottle of this juice for the colder weather once I burn through my sample.

This fragrance is perfect for someone looking for something different to wear. The combination of leather and fruit make for a wonderful scent that can be worn at any point. The sillage and projection on this scent is very high in my opinion, I found that within an hour or application you could smell it from 10+ feet away but decreases throughout the day. This smell is much more masculine than others but still gives off a very fun and young impression because of that fruit. Personally one that I wear daily and find myself loving the smell of every time I apply it.
