9PM Elixir

Inspired by Le Male Elixir Absolu Jean Paul Gaultier Concentration: Extrait de Parfum Season: Fall/Winter Fragrance Notes:  Top: cardamom, nutmeg and elemi Heart: pimento, leather and lavender Base: vanilla, patchouli, labdanum and rock rose Overview: 9PM Elixir opens with cardamom, nutmeg, and elemi in a warm, slightly resinous spice accord that feels rich from the first spray. The heart of pimento, leather, and lavender adds a slightly sharp, aromatic quality that gives this fragrance a distinctive edge, preventing it from settling into straightforward sweetness. The base of vanilla, patchouli, labdanum, and rock rose settles into a deep, slightly medicinal warmth that is unmistakably Gaultier-adjacent and long-lasting. As an Extrait, expect 10 or more hours of wear with strong sillage in the early hours. Fall and winter, purpose-built for evenings. A genuinely compelling interpretation of the Le Male Elixir Absolu at a fraction of the cost.
