Elevation

This lady notoriousbogey below me should probably wash herself more often, her sweaty armpits may have been ruined her sense of smell .. Just went to read her other reviews .. a lot of hate and rambling about armpit sweat. How can one hate a fragrance, that has been done by a qualified perfumer? .. if you dont like it, just move on .. be nice ..

I agree with previous user - it is very similar to Althair. But it's a lot smoother version, with more prominent musk. Lovely smell, full bottle worthy

Exactly what I want from niche perfumery. This somehow perfectly blends Althair and Blue Talisman. Versatile for all seasons. Masterclass.

Sweet, warm, creamy, spicy, beautiful.

Elevation sits in very similar territory to Althaïr (actually almost identical...) spiced vanilla with orange blossom and warm amber woods - and if you love that Parfums de Marly warmth, this is worth seeking out. It doesn't quite reach the same heights but it's a genuinely beautiful fragrance in its own right. Warm, comforting and well blended, even if it does feel like it's echoing something greater.

I'll try again in the winter. Intial vibe is somewhat the same feeling as ysl babycat or by the fireplace to me. Woody. Warm, kind of smokey, nutty, peppery.

Really does smell very close to Althair. If anything, this is slightly nuttier, muskier, and feels a touch more gourmand. Also quite heavy on the ambroxan. If Althair throws anyone off be being marketed as masculine, this is a decent alternative without having to head into Middle Eastern dupe territory. Having said all that, I still prefer and wear Althair. EDIT - as it continues to dry down, it becomes more savoury, a little bitter, a little dirtier in the muskiness, and just a bit obnoxious. Not really a fan and close to scrubbing off.

This smells identical to Althair, but with a strong armpit sweat note that only went away after an hour of suffering through that stink. This was such an unnecessary launch and the fragrance has no relation to the marketing around it about being a breath of fresh air etc. It's Althair, of which there are already a million dupes that are AS good if not better, and don't smell of body odour. Skip it.

To me it smells like sweat, I hate it, wish I could wash it off :(((

My ambroxan anosmia is doing what I'm sure is a beautiful perfume so dirty here. On initial spray, I get nothing but throat lozenge. I assume this is my brain trying to interpret the ambroxan. Then, after a while of full-on cough syrup disguised with sugar, it finally happens. Wafts of smooth, creamy, warm, nutty heaven start to hit my nose. I try to take a closer sniff. Throat lozenge again. The scent unfortunately remains elusive because whenever I focus too hard it collapses back into cough drop territory. Really disappointing as the fragrance I can ALMOST smell is gorgeous and I'm sure it's great for the people around me. I received two samples of this so perhaps by the time they are finished I will finally have trained my nose to experience this perfume the way it should be experienced. Until then, it's a regretful pass from me.

OMG this is absolutely amazing!!! Sweet, creamy, powdery, light, stong... all at the same time, like how??? There is this softness and smoothness in this scent that is beyond perfection. I would say Sesame seeds, vanilla and fresia are the most prominent, cardamom feels nicely blended and warm. Very, very nice, feels lux even if it is a bit sweet. There is a unique feeling when smelling this perfume, it is totally not groundbreaking but wow... it just makes you feel this.. Wow feeling, like THIS IS SO GOOOOOOD!

Better version of Althair to my nose. This leans more fem and is softer overall but still bears a strong resemblance to Althair. Also the ambroxan in here annoys me a little bit but it’s a nice fragrance nonetheless that I think a lot of people will enjoy especially if you loved Althair but found it too masculine for you.
