Amber Elixir

Well done Oriflame! I just wish all your perfumes had the quality of Amber Elixir (and its black bottled flanker). Unlike other Oriflame fragrances, Amber Elixir is an eau de parfum, so if you generally ever decide to purchase any Oriflame fragrance make sure it's an eau de pafrum; they are actually perfumes, that have no problem competing with high end perfumes. This is a masterpiece. The lasting power of it (well at least on me) is...until I wash. Yes, it stains,it will stain your hair, your clothes,on your pillow, on your skin, anywhere you spritz it, it will linger for ever. Sillage is insane, almost everyone that i talk to is wondering what is that smell; some seem very interested and like it, some seem confused and rub their noses. Well not everyone is going to like it. It's heavy, deep, strong, sultry and erotic, oriental. Right off the bat this is a winter scent, not even autumn, WINTER, it's so hot, it might be unbearable to wear it on hot days. But you never know, if someone likes it so much, there really isn't any restriction, i love to reek of it so i spray it everywhere, a head turner most definitely. The pyramid is so true to what i smell. This happens rarely with perfume. I have had and have high end perfumes and still some notes are ''not there'', but this abides by its pyramide. First spray is fruity! Delicious fruits, not the ''edible type ones'' but refined; for this reason gourmand perfume lover won't like it, it's not a foody fragrance despite the fruits. Citrus first and then the grapes. You will smell this combo for some hours. I was baffled initially, like ''where is the amber i was promised?''. You have to wait for it to develop, it takes it hours! And the fruits won't really really fade, they will be there just in the background. After three hours(?) i start sniffing something vanillic, of course it's the heliotropin, so not sweet, so pleasant and warm. It pairs nicely with almonds and stays like that, until peony pops up, one hour later(?). Peony will stand out until sandalwood takes over and then it's the drydown: sandalwood, amber and musk. On me it's more woody than ambery, but that's just body chemistry, sandalwood is a favorite so i don't mind at all. The blend is so juicy and lovely. The bottle is also vintagey, i remember my grandma's cosmetics and they all had a pattern similar of this perfume's packaging If ambrosia had a scent, it would be this.

When I first sprayed it smelled like I had sprayed myself with a shot amaretto liquor. Then after about 5 minutes it starts to morph into a lovely almondy sweet amber and the sandalwood begins to come forward and tease you a little. The grapes, oranges and blackcurrants are not really distinguishable in themselves but wrap themselves around the almonds to sweeten them and compliment the sweet, smokey amber scent. The final dry down is when the musk, sandalwood and heliotrope become more prominent but the sweet almond and amber still remain. This is an amazing multi-faceted and sexy fragrance. Personally I don’t think this smells remotely like Hypnotic Poison but if you’re like me and you’re a worshiper of Hypnotic Poison and know that there is never going to be a perfume that copies it but would like to find something a bit less expensive to wear to the office but still gives you that warm exotic sexiness, then I have no doubt that you will enjoy this scent. I have to say that this perfume out-performs a lot of the much more expensive brands out there. Longevity on me is about 6-7 hours Silage is about 4 feet for the first 2-3 hours, then about 2 feet for a couple of more hours dying down for about 12 inches for the last couple of hours.

Amber Elixir is a great choice if Hypnotic Poison is your cuppa :-) It opens with fruity notes of blackcurrant and grapes and soon turns into a sensual mixture of creamy heliotrope and bitter sweet almonds. The drydown does not come soon, so you need a dose of patience to wait for amber and sandalwood to emerge and make you fall in love with the fragrance. Amber Elixir possesses all the notes I would die for; it is also a deep, sexy and sensual fragrance; great for a hot night for two. I love the fragrance sparkling with almond and amber; it makes me feel confident and boosts my sex appeal :-) It lasts and lasts so no need to reapply every 3 hours! The silage is also more than decent; it is detectable by people around you for a good 5 hours. The flacon is a work of art and I am planning to buy another few bottles before it becomes impossible to find. I agree with the window above; Amber Elixir shares many similarities with IsaBella and Hypnotic Poison; it has that unusual deep, rich, sensual, almost dark feel to it. A marvel. Full stop.

I expected something heavier and sweeter, a resinous and almost smoky, honeyed amber, but this is nothing like that. It is creamy and bright and more complex than I thought. The fruits here are refreshing and vibrant, uplifting and rather tart, unlike the sharp aggressive sweetness or modern fruity florals. They are juicy and never cloying, a huge surprise. Then comes the lovely almondy part, rich and smooth and creamy. By the time it reaches the amber and sandalwood phase it goes quite weak on my skin, so I will have to apply more sprays to enjoy it even more. Not a heavy hitter but very loveable, mild and embracing. It reminds me to a berries-almond cheesecake. Best for autumn+ winter but might be enjoyable almost year-round.

i would like to thank Orchidlover for the pretty 4 ml bottle she gifted me :) it was always in front of my eyes but i never gave it a try .. i dunt know why but i was foolish-y expected an amber bomb burst with some floral notes !!! warm , sexy , sweet balanced between oriental and modernity ,with a fair long lasting on my skin. it remind me with Versace Crystal Noir which i adore ..the same sillage but this one dried down more oriental less sweet than CN. its a high brand body butter mixed with soft warm eastern spices . amazing bottle matches perfectly the juice inside . i would love to get the whole set perfume, body cream , body spray and the roll on . another PERFECT hit by Oriflame ! 8.5/10

This was my favorite choice for work for a while. My friend complimented me on the scent and asked what it was, but when I brought the bottle to work and showed it to her, it turned out she didn't like it as much as I did on me after a few hours of wearing it. The initial scent might be too overwhelming for some, but it's perfect for me. After a few hours, it settles on the skin and, with my skin chemistry, creates something wonderful: warm, sweet, almond, and powdery. I love this scent. It's very long-lasting and feminine.

A classic, warm composition—smooth, enveloping, and classically elegant. The notes are well blended, forming primarily a warm veil that settles creamy on the skin. On fabric, it lingers for several hours; the sillage is unobtrusive, yet throughout the day it subtly reminds you, prompting the thought, “what smells so lovely here?” A very successful and well-constructed fragrance, offering excellent quality for the price. Highly recommended.

I just love Amber Elixir, one of my absolute favorites from Oriflame. It is elegant and classy yet warm and inviting. The amber has a soft sweetness to it -from the fruits and an unlisted vanilla note, as well as a gentle powdery accord from the florals and almond. The woods and musk add to the depth and sensuousness of the amber in the base. I find it a lovely and very well balanced amber great for the cold months 😍

This is like a blend between Lolita Lempicka pour femme (original) and Fendi Palazzo edp (those amber basenotes...). Plus some subltle dark (vanilla almondsss...) grape undertone. It's really nice and... "Ka-ching!". Actually, it makes me think of that song. This is the best perfume oriflame ever made, and the first one I bought from them. Surprisingly good. And it lasts well, it's all ok. Try it.

Absolutely perfect review iamoir. I completely agree; my own experience with this divine nectar is almost identical to yours!!! Completely and wonderfully amazing. It's a gorgeous ambrosia. Ambrosia IS the word for it! It's stunning. Totally stunning. Gloriously opulent and evocative. Sensual and seductive. Strong. I LOVE it! AND yes....it lasts forever!!! My dream perfume!!!!

It came to me as a gift. At first I was prejudiced against it because I had not chosen it. Then slowly it captivated me. Feels like the warmness after a tequila shot but only with sweet, delicious effect. Came to love it and still use it. Some friends of mine says it's a middle-age thing which I'm not, but wear it anyways.

A BIG Thank you to member Zuuus.p for the miniature! This reminds me of Coty ICI....very sweet, but warm, amber-y, sensual, and sexy! I can smell the heliotrope in the background and it adds a floral edge to the warmth but stays in the background. I love this! I give it a rating of 4.5/5 STARS!

Long lasting and very nice. I also think it's a unisex fragrance. One of the best of Oriflame. Not too strong and not too sweet, the powder note and amber last all day. Most of Oriflame perfume which I like were not continued so I hope Oriflame don't do this to this one. 5/5 for Amber Elixir

It's the best Oriflame fragrance in my opinion. So sophisticated and elegant. Delicious amber with a hint of fruity note. It evolves beautifully and lasts all day. My perfect scent for autumn. However you have to be careful, when you apply it on white clothes because it leaves stains.

For me after having +300 collection Oriflame is so weak and 90% of the fragrance oil of it smells cheap but this one ! it's like magic ! I havn't smelled anything like that before so unique so sexy it needs powerful women has amazing lasting power and the silage is fantastic .

I bought a very substantial discount. It is a good and cheap perfume. Even though everyone says it's a perfect evening can wear and day. At this price you can give him in abundance! Dedicated perfume left behind as Lancome, Dior, Guerlain. For a higher quality put some money!

It’s a great all-around fragrance for any weather or occasion. It’s strong and longlasting, but not cloying. Out of all my fragrances - niche, designer, or cheap ones, this one gets me the most compliments, hands down. It will always be a repurchase for me.

I love this perfume. It is spicy, warm, sweet. And just slightly dark. I would think this would make the perfect autumn sent but I always love wearing this during winter. I have gone though a few bottles. It is a beautiful sent.

Autumn in a bottle! Cozy, sensual scent for the season when you sit near a fire place and sip something warm from a big mug.. Cozy and.. yes, sexy at the same time. Sweet but not too much. Good longevity! Beautiful bottle.

I was about to buy Enigma by Oriflame when a friend suggested Amber Elixir, and I was just blown away, it's inexpensive in price but the scent is just from heaven. I'm glad that I found this one :)

oriental pure ambrish smell with hints of almond and mandrine if you are into oriental scents this is for you it smells exactly like one of the rochas collection ,can't remember which one though :(

Not a great fan of Oriflame and home-sell-party's but this parfume is adorable. A long lasting power and a great amber scent. I ordered the amber elixer body cream for built-up layer effect.

tried it tonight, and amber is the star note here, love it, very feminine and intense, also almond notes are noticeable love it good amber frang and good lasting power and sillage

It's a beautiful sweet, woody and sensual delight of a fragrance! My boyfriend loves it, and so do I. It lasts for about 4-5 hours too, which just adds to it's charm. <3 <3

It is very heavy Perfume , sexy, Great lasting power , but it causes headache every time i wear it .very strong smell

I think it's their best. It is sweet, warm and lasts all day. The dry down reminds me of "Tia Maria" liqueur.

I will always love this. Powdery almondy soft fluffy perfect for autumn.

Wow!Nagyon szeretem ezt az illatot. Már a második üveget használom.

Very much like Hypnotic poison! Good luck! Action

Good for any occasion. Long lasting!

There are so many good oriflame fragrances IMHO.some of them have average quality which is still very good considering their very cheap prices but some are of very high quality!most of these high quality ones are oriflame's edps and amber elixir is definitely one of the better ones I completely agree with tiger 84's review. I also expected it to be much sweeter and heavier but not that I don't like it as it is.Amber Elixir is comforting,pleasant and while it's not a foody gourmand,it's still kind of delicious.I can detect mandarin and grape but it's not very fruity,there's just a touch of delightful fruity brightness.this light fruity floral combo is covered by a soft and warm veil of powdery amber,heliotrope which appears like almondy vanilla and musk. they're all recognizable but none of them overpowers the others.I really like it's powdery musky-woody-ambery-almondy drydown. this is a very powerful fragrance but it's powderyness isn't suffocating and chalky. I agree that it's a very cozy scent but it also has a charming refinement which makes it a good choice for special occasions, just as good as daily wear and office Unlike other reviews it's not a silage monster on me,but it has great longevity.It's bottle is as great as the juice inside.it looks beautiful and expensive If you're looking for a budget friendly perfume,something warm and comforting, mature but not dated, strong but not loud or too heavy,sweet but not foody,with a healthy dose of amber but not overly ambery,not an animalic,unisex like amber,a soft creamy one,something well balanced that none of the notes shout at you with amazing longevity and an easy to hold in hand,gorgeous little bottle, then give oriflame amber elixir a try BTW I don't find it similar to Bourjois Glamour Chic. they're both powdery and cozy but don't smell similar at all. گرم، آرامش بخش، بالغ و پودری. انگور و پرتقال رو میشه حس کرد مخصوصا تو دقایق اولیه اما غالب نیستن. عطر خیلی شیرینی نیست و رایحه کاملا پودری داره. تو درای داون، میشه مشک و چوب صندل رو حس کرد اما امبر و هلیوتروپ که یادآور وانیله و بادوم، غالب هستن. برای محل کار خیلی مناسبه و رایحش از قیمتش خیلی گرونقیت تر بنظر میرسه

I could bet this has exclusively vanilla in it. The type of amber in this composition is really sweet, comforting, almost homely. It is warming, I would say a winter scent due to the sweetness. The licorice not listed here is really present at all stages, the in -existent/unlisted vanilla too. It does match the name, however, but in the sense that it really is addictive - as they say about amber - this perfume makes me want to smell it more and more. In the dry-down there is a faint trace of smokiness, but only at a close sniff. The musk is the last one standing in this scent and it comes through only after about 8 hours. Overall it is a nice, warm-sweet/vanilla fragrance that I shall be wearing in cold months. It evokes warmth, a home-like environment, it invites to chat over a cup of hot black tea. The staying power is amazing for this price-friendly perfume company, it lasts all day, and if it gets into the clothes it stays there for long.

This was a blind buy for me based on a lot of positive reviews I saw online and it just seemed like my kind of fragrance. For some reason I was so disappointed when I first got it. I even hid it away just to not see it and think about the money I wasted 🤭I'm not even sure why I wasn't feeling it. Maybe because the weather outside was still hot. I feel so silly now though, because I found it a few weeks later and gave it another try and Oh My God! It is just so gorgeous 😍. Maybe it has macerated, maybe it's because the weather has cooled down or my perception of it has changed, I don't know what it was, but I really love it now. It's so thick and heavy, feels like a weighted blanket, perfect for cold snowy winter. It is very strong though so a little goes a long way. I don't do more than two sprays.

This is AMAZING. If I hadn't known this was Oriflame, I would have passed for something significantly more expensive than it is. It overperforms and shames all the extremely pricy designer options meant to be 'gourmand', 'cozy' and 'alluring' (looking at you, Black Opium, Poison Girl and the likes). The almond in this is so creamy and well-constructed, and blends extremely well with the amber and sandalwood notes. It's sweet and wraps you like a hug, makes you picture vanilla cookies, marzipan, extremely sweet amaretto, on a cold day. Like other reviewers, it has something that reminds me of Dior HP too, probably the sweet gourmand almond. Extremely classy, very grown-up without being in any way dated, very feminine. To be worn on cold winter days. Will last forever, on skin or clothes.

It's the first one that I've tried from Oriflame, and it made a good impression. A high quality fragrance! Very, very sweet at the begining, but who said sweet perfumes can't smell simultaneously sophisticated? Really edible, natural aroma of mature grapes, currants, crispy, moist almonds ... Giving a sweetness I can't bear! After about half an hour it settles down to a beautiful, cosy, warm, almondy-vanillic amber. Agree with a comment below, similar to Hypnotic Poison at this stage! With a touch of Dior's Addict drydown. Overall, a well-composed perfume for a very reasonable price. Sillage and lasting power are outstanding. Also, I think the bottle is nice, although I haven't seen it in reality. Still, I prefer Hypnotic Poison.

I got my little purse bottle in the mail today and I am quite confused. Not in a negative way, but I will definitely need time to understand this perfume, even though it seems pretty mainstream! When I first sprayed it, it reminded me mostly of Hypnotic Poison, very almondy and creamy. Tested globally (with a heavy hand), it gives me more of the vibe that I get from Orchidee Vanille by Van Cleef&Arpels, with some tiny resemblance to Madonna's Truth or Dare Naked. Of course it's just my brain's associations, but I am positive about getting some bitter cocoa and orchid, while amber is very, very quiet for now. It's a hot summer here and I think it's more of a winter perfume, so I'll keep on testing. A "like" for now.

this one smells great, very well-blended, it just amazes me how beautiful it is but... it has the staying power of a sneeze on my skin, with or without cream, on my clothes, on my scarf; no matter what method i use to make it last longer, it just doesn't, in other words, i shower myself with it then seconds later, i use another perfume or EDT just to smell like i have anything on!! it would've been better if it had weak sillage & staying power, but none at all is not acceptable, it took away all the love i had for the frag itself, truly disappointed :( i said before that it reminded me of body works, i take that back, body works is stronger

Another successful blind purchase! :) In the opening there's a delicious blend of fruits. Not just your typical fruity scent, but a creamy, warm and seductive fruity scent! In some time it morphs into the heart of the fragrance where the heliotrope makes it's appearance and announces the scrumptious almonds! Eventually the fruits disappear to make place for the lovely sensual dry-down of warm amber, sweet almonds and creamy sandalwood... I like how this scent develops through stages and therefore it's not a boring linear scent. I don't find this scent to be loud, it's present in a non-overwhelming way. Longevity is moderate on me. ♥♥♥♥

I like the first impression when I spray it on my wrist. I love the blend of orange, sandalwood, and amber in it. It's sweet, warm, and suit for a formal occasion. It's noticeable during the first 3 hours. Then it fades slowly, until it's only an inch smell away from my skin. The dry down is a bit sour, not something I really fond of, but I'm okay with it. So I respray it after 4 or 5 hours, to keep the sweet & warm smell linger on my skin. I use this for office day or an evening occasion. Not really like the smell when I'm under the sun during a hot humid day. Prefer to wear this during rainy days or evening time.

Amber Elixir is very rich. Very much a sweet, strong fruity floral amber, not woody. Lots of sweet almond here, too, with all ingredients very well blended. On my skin, the fruits with amber seem more prominent for the first 4 hours. After that, the florals and sweet almond with amber are most noticeable in the drydown, with the fruits more in the background. Overall very sweet, I love Amber Elixir ! It lasts on my skin forever until I wash it off. Silage is moderate and wonderful. If you're looking for a woody scent, this is not it. Amber Elixir is a very sweet, dense fruity floral. Beautiful !

Very likeable. This is my first oriflame-fragrance I have tried, and keeping in mind it is a budget-brand, I'm not dissapointed at all. It's warm and sweet, there is just one note somewhere which doesn't smell very natural and slightly sinthetic, I think it's the mandarin orange. Not very ambery, also not very classy as some may say, but definitely very woman-ish. Feminine is a word that makes me think of romance, while woman is more leaning towards power. And this amber elixir reminds me a little bit of that power.

A great amber, musk and almond scent. A great every-day-parfum. Longlasting on my skin. Good price - good scent. A scent for both younger and middleaged women! Some sugarsweet notes but not overwhelming sweet. No heavy or edgy notes. En härlig amber, musk och mandel mixad doft. Härlig varje-dag-doft. Sitter bra på huden. Bra pris för en bra parfym. en doft för både yngre och medelålders kvinnor/tjejer. Aningens sockersöta toner men bara lite. Inte tung eller kvalmig. En doft för amber/musk-älskaren.

Rich, warm, delicious, luxurious, expensive - words that come to my mind when I smell it. And the best thing is - it's cheap! Coldn't get any better. This perfume is so addictive, I can't stop smelling my wrist. I love it in the fall season. Also I must say the longevity is on the level of very expensive perfumes such as Chanel or Thierry Mugler. So it is really worth trying and I wouldn't be scared of blind-buying this beautiful perfume. GREETINGS FROM THE CZECH REPUBLIC! :)

I opened the bottle ( which design I love), sprayed it a little and thought aaaah! So warm, sensual, and a little different from my typical choices.. but then an hour or so later, the fragrance went from warm and cozy to something reminding me of a cheap men’s after shave. So disappointed. The warm lovely smell did stay on my sweater, but smells very different on skin. Such a shame:(

I agree that it`s very likable :) Too heavy at the beggining on me,but after 15mins stays great and not so loud.Very sweet begging,but not yummy sweetness.For Oriflame is more than great-lasts long enough and smells fantastic,in my opinion this is more for cold days.I usually don`t use Oriflame fragrances,but this and Divine are truly diamonds for me.

I get this as a gift (I thnik I talked too much about how much I love oriental, powdery, musky, amber scents..) from my family. Well, it smells very good (!!) and it's really good value....... I like it very much, but I'm looking for something more polish and less sweet.

I dont like this perfume on the first spray because it is overpowering. However after that it becomes softer and leaves a very nice mixture of amber and sandalwood. It's better to wear this perfume at night.

I used to love wearing this one in the winter time as it stays for a good while on my skin and clothes. To me, this reminded me of a warm hug on a really cold winter day. Really nicely made fragrance.

Powdery and sweet almond-forward amber, opens with a candy-sweet orange. Feels a lot like powdery nougat, something you'd bake with. Perfect for autumn and winter, projects no more than arms length.

Feminine, deep, inviting, erotic. Bitter sweet smell of a hot body with the touch of animate sourness. Apparently, skin chemistry matters very much with this perfume. Doesn't fit a young girl.
