    This is a glorious delight of a fragrance...in fact, I love the entire Merveilles line---and while they are all similar and share family traits, they are all quite different enough from each other...

    I think you have to like gourmands to like Elixir des Merveilles. While the opening is intriguing, I mostly get a very boozy orange vibe overall. A bit like fermenting sangria with tons of...

    I don't usually care for gourmandes and the idea of a foody Eau de Merveilles seemed a little odd to me. It was love at first sniff but I am now glad I didn't buy a big bottle. This is JCE alright...

    Elixir de Merveilles is truly a unique fragrance, and should be at least sniffed. I normally can't wear citrus in the least bit--it immediately turns to floor cleaner upon hitting my skin. Needless...

    I see Elixir des Merveilles as a logical gourmand extension of Eau des Merveilles: they are related as far as I’m concerned. Both fragrances could easily be unisex, and both depend strongly on...

    While this is fairly nice when first applied, dry-down is like a man's (cheap) aftershave. Too bad because the bottle is pretty. I'm sorry to have wasted $$$.

    Smells exactly like Calvon Klein, Obsession. I don't detect any of the gourmand, chcolate notes of which other reviewers wrote. No Citrus orange, either. This was a gift from my stepmother-in-law....

    My default setting is jeans T shirt and sneakers but my taste in perfume runs to elegant and mature. Frankly I don't want to smell like bubblegum or cotton candy (the latent wannabe Parisienne in...

    I bought this thinking I had found the Shangri La of perfumes, a warm, musky amber-ey mystery...I used up my generous decant from Norddstrom's before I could say boo. I'm a little torn on this...

    Oriental fougere that is just too complexly fussy on me. Strong, old fashioned powdery amber layered with a million other notes comes out smelling ostentatiously expensive and proud on me. There's...

    I've been toying with the idea of getting Eau des Merveilles for a while, but it really never felt like "me." Elixir is the answer. Not too gourmand, but just enough to keep it young. Overall, this...

    Ever since Eau des Merveilles came out, I have had a soft spot for it. Purchase was only thwarted by the fact I was feeling sensitive to the word ‘whimsical’, used so ardently in Hermes’...

    I find the word 'elixir' utterly misleading here. The word connotes exoticism to me, warmth, intimacy; whereas the Elixir de merveilles reminds me of a salty chocolate biscuit that I once happened...

    I'm still trying to decide on this. My friend wears it and it smells great on her. When I first sprayed it on at Sephora, it smelled like bug repellant. As is warmed to my skin, however, it turned...

    This is my signature scent. I found it at Nordstrom while waiting to pay for Eau Des Merveilles. The main difference between the two is the orange. Eau has a fresh, almost sparkling note while the...
