Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Elixir Absolu Parfum 200 ml

When I received the fragrance in winter, it initially smelled distinctly more gourmand, heavier, and also a bit sweeter to me. However, it was never as extremely sweet as, for example, JPG Le Male Elixir. Overall, it struck me as rather luxurious, mature, and high-quality. After wearing it repeatedly over several months and now that more than half a year has passed, the fragrance has noticeably changed for me. By now, the plum comes through much stronger and more beautifully. At the same time, the fragrance feels less heavy and less sweet than at the beginning, making it feel a bit more balanced for me. The performance, however, remains extremely strong. The projection is very present and seems to me even stronger now than at the start. The sillage is also very strong, and the fragrance definitely leaves a noticeable scent trail. The longevity is also excellent and clearly one of the strengths of the fragrance.

I have tested Elixir Absolu several times now, but it just doesn't convince me. The sweetness is extremely dominant and, over time, feels almost too artificial to me. I miss the depth or an interesting twist. It lasts forever, but the scent itself is too overwhelming for everyday wear. To be honest, there are definitely better alternatives for me.

Heerlijk geurtje dat lang blijft hangen. Snelle levering.

Ik ben superblij met Le Male Elixir Absolu van Jean Paul Gaultier, die ik nu een paar weken gebruik. De geur is intens en krachtig, precies wat je zoekt als je houdt van warme, diepe geuren. Tonkaboon en pruim vallen meteen op, echt een mooie combinatie.
