Le Male Elixir Collector Edition

I got this pretty cheap for my country its like 80 bucks 125ml tester normal price is around 177 when its first launched. Its almost same as le male elixir but I think collector edition doesnt have strong mint and lavender opening because I hate the opening of le male elixir, opening way too minty and lavender smell its change quick but its bothered me, also performance is lower on this one for my test I dont wear so much but le male elixir almost beast to me and this one is okey but not beast projection same but longevity little poor for me.

Just got this as a early Xmas present and Its exactly the same as the original just in the collectors edition jacket and display box that's really nice, with collectors edition on the front plastic display screen, I'm in Australia a yes Myer shows a plum note but trust me there isn't one. So unless you want the collectors edition just buy the OG. Amazing protection and can still smell it on skin the next day.

@Thorbern In fact, there is no need for anything other than food. We didn't need nothing else from the very beginning of the homosapien, until we noticed our own sweat stinky odor. Although I prefer we all humans to live naked, I wouldn't want to walk among a crowd of people that won't use underarm deodorant.

To S.nugaim, who said - "There is absolutely no need for this" There is no NEED for fragrance at all, it's a luxury, a want. You won't die without it. But killjoy funsuckers like you would take all the pleasure out out life. It's a Christmas edition, something Gaultier has done for 30 years. It's 'collectable'. While I would say that compared to the flamboyant excess of previous decades, modern Gaultier Christmas sets are more than a little lacking in creativity, that's not really a good reason to be a curmudgeon, a sourpuss, a kvetch (I love a good thesaurus). Let us celebrate the frivolous, the whimsical, just in case someone decides that owning more than two fragrances should be a capital crime.

@Learning about fragrances Hmmm, so you're seeing plum down in Australia?! I went to the Gaultier website and the verbiage—with the usage of the word "swapping"—makes me think it's just the same elixir, but a different bottle. One thing IS for certain, however. Gaultier isn't lacking when it comes to excessive copywriting for fragrance descriptions! If they put as much effort into CLEARLY conveying what the hell a product REALLY is, versus sending consumers down an endless rabbit hole, we may be more inclined to purchase. Then again, it's Puig... they're the "experts" at rebottling rehashed ingredient lists and marketing the outcome as an entirely "new" fragrance. 🙄
