boozy vanilla

It's a dry, spicy, boozy vanilla/caramel combination. It's nowhere as gourmand as L de Lolita, yes I agree it's a smoky relation to Tea for Two by L'artisan, I find it less sweet in a good way as compared to SDV by Guerlain but I think Mona di Orio did a better dry vanilla. There is a harshness around the edges of this beauty, it isn't as refined as SDV or Mona's Vanille but at this price, they shouldn't be compared. Sillage is good, about an arm's length but longevity could be alot better, I'm getting maybe three hours maximum before this becomes a skin scent. All in all, I'm happy with this different take on an oriental vanilla.

How good can you smell?!

This is incredible: bright, punch-in-the-nose rum opening, all caramelly sweetness on top with a delicious, mouthwatering middle of pure candy bliss. When someone smells you from the other room and inhales your scent for at least 6 deep breaths, you know you have a winner. Vanilla mixes up the drydown. Pure heaven.

This perfume smells almost exactly like Note Vanillee but a little bit brighter, juicier, and much less expensive. At first I thought the sillage and longevity were poor but it really depends on the day and the wearer. I cannot recommend this perfume enough, for gourmand lovers especially.

It's incredible how good this fragrance smell for only 27 euros/100ml!

A delicious boozy gourmand blend, perfectly unisex, easy to wear and very addictive. It reminds me a bit of Pure Havane, but I dare to say Dolcelisir is better.

If you live in Italy, you love gourmand fragrances, and you never tried this, then RUN to the nearest L'Erbolario store! You can thank me later. =)

Fantastic performances on my skin, lots of compliments, and is so affordable, almost too good to be true. But it is!

Sweet, dry, nice and accessible

I'm absolutely in love with this scent. I came to it as a lot of people mentioned it was a possible alternative to Ambre Narguile and though it isn't really equal to it, I find it beautiful in its own. I can't get enough of its drydown, on my skin it is warm (amber, tonka, benzoin and vanilla with a slight animalic end that makes it addictive) and spicy (cinnamon is there all the way), sweet (cacao and caramel) and dry (immortelle). The top notes don't stay too long on me, I like the sweet rum mix with just some orange peel. It seems to just disappear for a while after this first phase to come in again in a deep way with a quick transition of the middle to base note. The flower notes must be there but I'm not picking any individually.

It is very long lasting and polite enough in terms of sillage.

All in all a very nice and affordable scent and though warm, it does behave during fall and spring as well as during winter.

Thanks Erbolario for bringing it back!

Dolce Elisir - the concept of the elixir of life has been a legendary concept for centuries.
This mythical potion, is famous for granting immortality or restoring people’s youth.

But, while the idea of a real elixir may be nothing more than a fable, there are certain things in life that can make us feel truly alive and happy...

For me, Dolce Elisir it's this: a magic fragrance that has the ability to make me feel happy and uplift my spirit.

The atmosphere that creates it's like a sweet liquor, thanks to the powerful and heady combination of rum and floreal notes that immediately stand out.
As the fragrance settles, it reveals an array of delightful and comforting notes such as vanilla, cocoa, almond, caramel and among others.

In the background, a little touch of benzoin, amber and tonka bean helps the fragrance to stay longer on the skin, but without making it too strong or too cloying.

Also, what is truly remarkable about this fragrance is that it defies categorization; it's not a boozy scent or even a gourmand (despite its marketing).

Finally, on certain moments, it reminds me fragrances like CK One Shock for Him or some commercials fragrances like "1 Million (Eau de Toilette) | Paco Rabanne".

So, in my opinion, It’s a perfect unisex fragrance (maybe not a performance monster) but deserves to be known and appreciated, like a rare and precious “Elixir” :-)

P.S. After many years of being discontinued, Erbolario decided to bring back Dolce Elisir as a limited edition fragrance. I highly recommend you to try it!
