The Great Comparison
Erba Pura? Kirke?

I was able to test the Celui and immediately knew what it was "supposed to be."
My opinion on the scent is independent of who released it, although that might play a small role later on.

The Celui by Elevate is said to be an Erba Pura/Kirke clone, which in my opinion smells more identical to Kirke than to Erba Pura. I even have to say that the Celui does not smell anything like the Xerjoff. The scent DNA is somewhat similar, but the Xerjoff smells completely different.

The scent:
The Celui comes across as much more synthetic and does not last as long as its big counterpart from Terenzi. For me, the Celui smells far too penetratingly synthetic when compared to its "two" companions. Someone here has already written that the Celui has a kind of fabric softener note, which I can agree with. For me, this "fabric softener note" even smells more like a fruity shower gel.
In my opinion, the scent unfortunately does not come close to the original or the two originals. Also, regarding the price...

Price:
50ml of Celui costs €75, for 100ml it would be €150.
100ml of Kirke costs about €100, and 100ml of Erba Pura can sometimes be found for around €175.

The price of the Celui is set quite high, which is partly due to the fanbase of the creators. The buyers are mostly quite young and do not have much to do with perfume.
99% of Parfumo users would give the Celui a 1/10 in terms of price-performance ratio. I count myself among that 99%.

Conclusion:
Not a particularly impressive release, unfortunately also far too expensive compared to cheaper/equally priced rivals from well-known niche houses.
If you want something even cheaper, get the Lattafa Confidential Gold, which is a very well-made Kirke clone for €20.

Good Summer Scent
For me, the fragrance is a great summer scent. It is a sweet and at the same time fresh, fruity scent. At the beginning, you can clearly smell the blackcurrant. Towards the end, the vanilla becomes more pronounced. In my opinion, this leans a bit towards the Erba Pura direction. I can only recommend the fragrance.

Successful Summer Fragrance
I have already tested a few "influencer fragrances," and this one convinced me the most.
Probably also because the scent is kept so simple and is actually something for everyone.
In my opinion, you could buy it blindly, also because the price is reasonable. According to the manufacturer, it is limited, so I think I will buy it a second time.

The fragrance is very versatile, suitable for the office, while having coffee, but also when you want to go out with a nice lady.

Longevity is like with almost every summer fragrance - sufficient but not outstanding.
The same goes for the sillage - you notice the scent a bit, but that's about it. It's a light fragrance and not intense.

However, I find the packaging and the bottle very beautiful; in my opinion, it is kept "simple," yet still eye-catching. I would definitely place it in a visible shelf.

At first, it smells very berry-like, so fresh and fruity. Towards the end, a hint of vanilla emerges.

Absolute purchase recommendation from my side.

Erba Pura with a Fresh Kick
I was looking for a suitable summer fragrance, and the first scent from Elevate had really convinced me, so I decided to add this one to my collection as well.

The bottle comes in a simple white packaging that somewhat resembles Tom Ford and looks a bit like an ice cube :) In my opinion, it is well done and fits the fragrance.

This fragrance starts with many different fruity notes, as you would expect from scents like Erba Pura or Kirke. It really reminds me of a freshly pressed smoothie or a colorful mixed fruit basket. However, what sets Erba Pura and similar scents apart is the additional freshness that makes it a bit lighter. Personally, I find Erba Pura a bit too feminine and also very strong. Because of this combination, I sometimes find it a bit difficult to wear as a man, and if you do, you definitely need a certain level of self-confidence. The Elevate scent, in my opinion, does this better. The fragrance is less feminine due to the added freshness and not as overpowering, making it the ideal summer scent for men.

As a rough classification: On me, Erba Pura lasts up to 24 hours. The Elevate scent lasts around 10 hours, with moderate sillage. In terms of price, it is €75 for 50ml (+€5 shipping), which is more expensive than Kirke but cheaper than Erba Pura. I find the price/performance ratio completely acceptable; you definitely get something for the price.

Conclusion: If Erba Pura or Kirke are too feminine for you, I can only highly recommend this fragrance. A really well-executed release, especially for an "influencer scent." In my opinion, it is also absolutely suitable for blind buying; otherwise, you can occasionally find decants here in the souk [not advertising, I don't sell any ml from my own :)) ].

Celui by Elevate
Celui by Eli Sidney and Vadi
For me, this is a very successful summer fragrance. I must say it leans towards Erba Pura by Xerjoff and Kirke by Tiziana Terenzi, which makes sense since Elias Nehrlich really likes Erba Pura. At first, you can smell a strong similarity to the two mentioned fragrances, but after about 3-4 hours, it takes its own direction into a (fabric softener type). I find it not as strong as Erba Pura and it doesn’t (bite) the nose as much, but it still lasts on my skin for about 7-8 hours, which I find good (sufficient). The sillage is okay and the price-performance ratio of €75 for 50ml is fair.
In conclusion, if you like Erba Pura or Kirke and don’t want to spend too much money, and you want a fragrance that goes in that direction, you can definitely buy this one.

A pure fruit cocktail
Very similar to Kirke
A bit fresher, a bit fruitier
A lot of musk in the base
But less captivating

Smells similar to Kirke in my opinion, just much more synthetic. After about 1.5 hours, it turns into a skin scent. P/L: I always go for the Terenzi.

A super refreshing fruit bomb. Very similar to Kirke, but still a great perfume. I've received a lot of compliments for it so far.

A fresher Kirke is my first thought. Unfortunately, the longevity isn't great. The bottle is very beautifully crafted.

Celui is a great summer scent and recommended if you like erba pura or Kirke - it’s not as strong as the two.

Nothing new but solid. Fresh, fruity summer scent. Clear impressions of Kirké & Erba Pura. Sillage is fine but not special.
