Hypnose Hypnotizing Elixir Lancome for women

As a fan of the original Hypnose and even more of the sheer edition Eau Legère I couldn't help but purchase this treasure. I couldn't really appreciate this elisir from the beginning because it was too warm for me so I learned how to use it, only a few drops on my wrists and no spray under my neck. Being aware that this perfume is really powerful you can really enjoy it and wear it proudly.
One thing that makes me really curious about it is of course the real olfactory pyramid, as it's not listed here. Being a flanker of Hypnose I guess it contains vanilla, much vanilla, and the sharp note of vetiver, both of them being quite prominent. I'm also quite sure there must be some jasmine and some other white flower like maybe gardenia and they are responsible of the the "warm" feeling I get from Hypnotizing Elixir. I'm not sure the passion flower is present in this flanker.
The sillage and longevity are great, definitely a winter perfum, very elegant and perfect at any age, very romantic and powerful, it's a real love potion! I'm so glad to have this treasure!

I bought elixir on Ebay from international seller. I paid a lot for 1.7 oz. I really like it but the longevity is about 30 minutes on my skin. The others reviewers said that it stays on the skin for 8 hours. I think I am facing a knock off of. A week ago I tried at Ultra original version of Hypnose and it does last for a long time.So, members be aware of imitations.

c'est mon parfum préférer, hypnose je trouve qu'il sons bien choisis le nom.

This is a subtle scent. The main note seems to be vanilla and it is sweeter than I expected. It is delicate and I would have called it oriental vanilla rather than woody. I think most people would be happy to wear it as it is warm and delicate. For me, it's a skin scent and I would have prefered something a little 'bigger'. I do like it but my favourites tend to be a little bolder and darker. It will be something I wear in the day rather than evening.

Had it on for 8 hours now - longevity is amazing

This is one perfectly balanced bottle of perfume. The aroma that is emitted from this perfume upon the initial spray is simply inducing. I knew when I first gave this perfume a try a few years ago, that I had to have a bottle of it. I have the original Hypnose which I love to wear but this version just made me fall in love with the Hypnose brand even more. I love oriental fragrances but this fragrance is also floral. There aren't any notes listed, but I imagine that its potent make-up is similar to the original Hypnose because their aromas bear several resemblances. I know there's vanilla and vetiver at work but I also detect floral notes akin to jasmine or something simialr to it. This perfume has such a beautiful composition. It's highly sensual and wears close to the skin and embraces it's wearer for hours. Lancome's "Hypnose Hypnotizing Elixir" is a deeply sensual fragrance. It's sexy, passionate and probbably the most feminine fragrance that I've ever worn. Romantic, Intimate and beautiful enough for any season.

My friend wear it to office and she smell very sexy. She have XXL body, but the smell make men imagine she in M body... even I think a sexy lady standing behind me when I facing the fax machine. Once I turn, it was her... with her polite elegance look.. but she really smell sexy. I have the original version of Hypnose. But I have to admit this smell more woodsy, classy and sexy. Unfortunately, it is not available in my country and she got it as a present from her boyfriend who just came back from overseas. So jealous of her..

I recieved this one today morning. Definitely hypnotizing! As many others say, it is deeper than the original version, more of a winter scent than a spring or summer one. Very delicate.

As it is elixir de parfum, on my skin it develops slower than the original Hypnose. Still testing the lasting power. Creators seem to have removed the bubble-gummish smell from this one
( in my country, we say this, because one nuace of the scent reminds us of a gum, which we used to chew in our childhood. It was a bubble gum, whith the picture of Donald Duck on it's wrapping paper XD)
So the scent is well-balanced, more woodsy than Hypnose, and I can't smell as much vanilla, as in the original. For me, Hypnose is more floral, this one is an "earth" scent. Unfortunately, as it is early spring and already hot in my country, it can't develop very well.
Funny to say, but I can't wait for winter to wear her with all her hypnotizing power :D

Update: the lasting power is amazing. I can't even wash off the scent!!

can anybody tell me the notes?

I guess I will be the only one with a neutral review of the Elixir... probably because my expectations were too high. It is definitely better than the classic Hypnose but still it is a lacklustre frag for me, it's simply too delicate and lacks character. The smell is very creamy indeed, and the heart notes are sweet and pleasant but it is too balanced and stays too close to the skin. I definitely need a more intense woody oriental for the forthcoming season.

Recently I've bought elixir! Actually I find both versions of Hypnose magnificent! Can't decide which one is better! I prefer Hypnose for summer.

One of my new favourites,it is one of the most sedductive smells i have ever smelled!I like it even much more then the original,it has more sensuality and it is more deeper.It also doesnt have that intensly smell that many doesnt like in the first version.It seems like they have balanced it better in this.To bad it is not so availible,so i am really glad i have it!

As for me this version is better than classic Hypnose. Men really love it.

Very sexy! Men love it!

Completely agree! It was impossible to find it in my country, I was happy to get it as a present! Very delicate and sensual fragrance!

I cannot say anything, it is Elixir and it is definitely Hypnotizing! Sensual, oriental, erotic, it has an aromatherapy effect on me. Definitely a winter perfume. It would be my choice on a first date. Hypnose is great as well, but this version is fabulous! Too bad it is a limited edition.
