My worst experience of the house...!
Hello everyone,
today I would like to address relatively few and honest words to you and it is about the Elysium Eau Intense ...
Roja is one of the houses that have been with me for a very, very long time, but from a safe distance.
Why?
On the one hand, the sometimes absurd price of individual products (the perfumes) are well..., I don't like to talk about certain prices because I think to myself - either you can afford it or you can't, but their relationship in terms of price - performance is not unimportant to me and that is really very difficult with some. That's one of the reasons why I've stayed away from the house so far.
However, a few months ago I grabbed a "batch" of fragrances to try out and I would like to share these thoughts with you (so there are a few more to come...).
Yes, I already know the Elysium Parfum Cologne Eau de Parfum and the Elysium pour Homme Parfum from previous tests and in 2023 came the flanker - the Elysium Eau Intense. I don't want to make a big fuss and I know (!) there are insanely big FANS of the house and this is partly justified, but the Elysium Eau Intense is nothing and not even close!
And yes, it is fresh, citrusy, slightly fruity, soft (the first 25 minutes), but everything that comes after that is difficult. I've heard things like cleaner, swimming pool, chlorine, changing rooms etc... - BUT it's not even close to being something special or something you have to have and when I see the price tag, there's a real fine line between a certain boldness and a certain madness for me!
Why such drastic words!
For 2 reasons.
Firstly, many designers do it noticeably better. More beautiful progression (development) and secondly (just as honestly) the performance is a real laughing stock. When a €15 drugstore fragrance (if it's even that expensive) like Tabac Man Eau de Toilette or a Zino Eau de Toilette or a The Dreamer Eau de Toilette performs far better than this prestigious house.... phew!
How does it go down?
Yes ok, if you can smell it...
Recommendation - definitely no,
test it and if you like it
you, or you see it like me.
And now have a nice day/evening, or whatever you read this review, LG the Benny
