Fragrance reviews
Let's present a review of Yves Rocher Co Elixir reviews, the authors of which share their personal impressions of the fragrance:
- Sweet, one might even say viscous aroma. You can beautifully compare it to a slow fall into a cloud of powdered sugar.
- Many authors agree that "True Elixir" is a very versatile fragrance. It's perfect for any time of the year and doesn't feel out of place or over-the-top.
- As for the time of day, most of the opinions of the authors attribute the fragrance to evening and even nighttime.
- The perfect perfume composition is also noted: patchoula does not interrupt other notes, and incense does not loudly announce itself, remaining a languid aftertaste.
- Delicate fragrance that its owner does not stop hearing throughout the day. Many people like its sweet aftertaste, beautiful "leaving" - the smell gradually subsides pleasantly, none of the notes suddenly betrays itself. You can call it sensual, sexy, but at the same time not at all vulgar and not defiant.
- Many authors believe that the ideal time of the year for a fragrance is summer. It resembles an exotic flower that has just opened under the rays of the morning sun. This feminine gentle smell is also good because it does not tire its owner at all in the heat, in the exhausting summer heat.
- A languid and daring fragrance that draws in the air a seductive, intoxicating, graceful and incredibly beautiful black panther. The woman who chose "True Elixir" for herself is sexy, powerful, knowing how beautiful she is. Customers consider the fragrance to be the perfect completion of a sensual evening look. Some even call it a true aphrodisiac.
- The fragrance begins beautifully with bitter notes of bergamot, gradually opening up with beautiful delicate jasmine, leaving behind a heady and elusive subtle trail of patchouli aroma.
- Decent, predictable, but not simple fragrance. Its first notes are sweet, viscous, like honey. And then a "smoky" rose. The aftertaste is a bit disappointing. In the base, the pink smell begins to "oil" and "smoke" in a duetwith patchouli and frankincense, which greatly spoils the initial sweet sensation.
- Inviting, thick, beautifully iridescent fragrance. It is believed that this is an ideal solution for wet weather, dank autumn. From bold and sexy, it smoothly and naturally turns into gentle and feminine.
- Bright and challenging fragrance. Direct association with a low neckline and high heels. Therefore, it is completely unsuitable for a business environment. His element is romantic evenings, the twilight of the restaurant, a luxurious party.
- Someone, on the contrary, considers perfumes not defiant, but sweet and elegant. They also talk about the approximate age of the owner - from 27 years. Reviewers see "True Elixir" as a nice gift for mom or older sister.
- Simultaneously delicate and bright fragrance. The authors admit that it is very difficult to find such a combination. Beautifully revealed on the skin. The feeling that the smell changes with every breath. These are the very perfumes that you can remain faithful to for several years. Customers admit that such a multifaceted smell simply cannot get bored.
Product quality reviews
"True Elixir" - the original perfume. Is it really a high quality product from one of the most popular French cosmetic brands? Again, imagine the review of the owners of spirits:
- The fragrance is very persistent. The authors note that he literally "doesn't care": remains on the skin after bathing, applying lotion or cream, after a night's sleep.
- Persistent smell,leaves behind a tangible trail. However, its disadvantage is that it is a fragrance of a perfume shop, women's perfume in general. It's hard to pick out individual notes and enjoy them.
- Many consider the fragrance "loud". The authors warn that one spray on the wrist is enough to smell luxuriantly all evening. It's easy to go overboard with "True Elixir" out of ignorance, wrapping yourself in a thick, unpleasant veil of smell.
- And one more warning. If a girl goes too far with such perfumes, then this can negatively complement her image. Thus, some authors bitterly noted that the smell of "flowers that stood in a vase with fermented water for a week" appears.
- An important advantage of the product is that it is eau de parfum. Such perfumes are difficult to find today on sale. They are much softer and better than the more common eau de toilette. The latter sins too sharp, "flat" smell.
Design reviews
"True Elixir" from "Yves Rocher" is a great gift option. How successful is its design? A review of customer reviews will help us to form an opinion:
- Many are delighted with the solution of the bottle - in the form of a rounded drop. This design seems to hint at how the perfume composition hidden inside is smoothly revealed.
- The reviewers also make a distinction between perfumes that come in a regular transparent bottle and a limited edition fragrance (gold bottle). In particular, they note that the "simple" "TrueElixir" is sweet and vanilla, while in the limited edition the emphasis is more on incense and rose.
- The limited edition is also loved by customers for the gold plating on the bottle glass. This is appreciated not only for the beautiful effect. You can leave the perfume in the light without a box, which will not negatively affect it in any way.
Comparison with other perfumes, eau de parfum
"Co Elixir" - the original perfume. However, in order to have an idea about the fragrance, it is worth comparing it with other well-known perfumes. This is what the authors of the reviews did, which we will present to you below:
- There are comparisons with Shiseido Zen. But "True Elixir" cannot be called completely identical to it. The creation of "Yves Rocher" is more viscous, sweet, thick, warmer. It gives out incense and bergamot, which makes the perfume perfect for the winter season.
- One more comparison - with perfume "Midnight" from Dior. But, unlike the "True Elixir", the fragrance is calm and quiet. "Elixir" - more expressive, sharp, modern and feminine.
- Compare the fragrance with "Cheri" from the same "Dior". The common thing here is berry notes. In all other respects the spirits are different. The authors also consider "True Elixir" to be more heady and intoxicating.
