Amber Elixir is a fragrance by the house of Oriflame introduced in 2009. The perfume is dedicated to amber and decorated with gold details on its flacon, while glorifying opulence of aromas and design of the edition. Amber Elixir incorporates essences of mandarin,red grapes and black currant. A heart hides peony and heliotrope sweetened with a nuance of almond, while base notes encompass amber, musk and sandalwood. The fragrance is available as 50 ml EDP, as well as an adorable 4ml miniature.

I love amber and the lasting power was so good.However I dont use amber anymore because with time this perfume became annoying for me.
I couldnt use it anymore.

A great amber, musk and almond scent. A great every-day-parfum. Longlasting on my skin. Good price - good scent. A scent for both younger and middleaged women! Some sugarsweet notes but not overwhelming sweet. No heavy or edgy notes.
En härlig amber, musk och mandel mixad doft. Härlig varje-dag-doft. Sitter bra på huden. Bra pris för en bra parfym. en doft för både yngre och medelålders kvinnor/tjejer. Aningens sockersöta toner men bara lite. Inte tung eller kvalmig. En doft för amber/musk-älskaren.
Despite being effordably priced I find Oriflame to make unique fragrances, with good staying power, enjoyable sillage, and wide ranged.
Here the amber theme was picked up with different notes ftom many others: the grapes and almonds together in a mix aren't something I was familiar with. And this is something to be positively commented on, since it is different and has a nice nutty-fresh twist to the amber. And the amber isn't heavy and potent. It compliments with the beforementioned notes.
I don't smell distinct flower notes, but they are white and fresh flowers.
I was sure to love it, but sadly because of the almonds it just didn't work well with me. Scents like Diors HP, Jacomos Art (yellow bottle), and Crazylibellule&Poppies Vanille Macarons developed just like Amber Elixir did, a horrid Play-Do-note on my skin.
What a pleasant surprise this was! Such a sweet, fluffy, pretty scent! Not an earth-shakingly complex or original but very nice and pleasant. Quite sweet but not too much for me, not that strong either. I get a mix of amber, honey and heliotrope on my skin. That might sound unbearably sweet but surprisingly, it's not. It's a fluffy, sweet, powdery scent with somewhat airy quality and it makes me feel good.
Somehow this scent reminds me of perfumery smell...you know, when you just walk through on the shop and the smells of the perfumes just mixed in the air...and your nose just become full with the fragrances.
So...every time when I take sniff from this essence always the perfumery comes to my mind.
I don't like to write negative rewiews but unfortuntely Amber Elixir is one of my bad choice.:(
Amber Elixir somehow an unfinished composition for me. After many attempts I just feel the cloying, synthetic mass of the notes and nothing else. My skin doesn't like Amber Elixir.:)
Otherwise this would be a nice amber scent if it works with the chemistry well.
If you could, try before you buy it.:)
Amber Elixir is a great choice if Hypnotic Poison is your cuppa :-)
It opens with fruity notes of blackcurrant and grapes and soon turns into a sensual mixture of creamy heliotrope and bitter sweet almonds. The drydown does not come soon, so you need a dose of patience to wait for amber and sandalwood to emerge and make you fall in love with the fragrance.
Amber Elixir possesses all the notes I would die for; it is also a deep, sexy and sensual fragrance; great for a hot night for two.
I love the fragrance sparkling with almond and amber; it makes me feel confident and boosts my sex appeal :-)
It lasts and lasts so no need to reapply every 3 hours!
The silage is also more than decent; it is detectable by people around you for a good 5 hours.
The flacon is a work of art and I am planning to buy another few bottles before it becomes impossible to find.
I agree with the window above; Amber Elixir shares many similarities with IsaBella and Hypnotic Poison; it has that unusual deep, rich, sensual, almost dark feel to it.
A marvel. Full stop.
Very strong and fantastic. Long lasting.
It's the best of Oriflame, I think! Perfect for my mother, But too strong for me, so I gave it too her. She very loves it and wears it on every occasions.
I could bet this has exclusively vanilla in it. The type of amber in this composition is really sweet, comforting, almost homely. It is warming, I would say a winter scent due to the sweetness. The licorice not listed here is really present at all stages, the in -existent/unlisted vanilla too. It does match the name, however, but in the sense that it really is addictive - as they say about amber - this perfume makes me want to smell it more and more. In the dry-down there is a faint trace of smokiness, but only at a close sniff. The musk is the last one standing in this scent and it comes through only after about 8 hours. Overall it is a nice, warm-sweet/vanilla fragrance that I shall be wearing in cold months. It evokes warmth, a home-like environment, it invites to chat over a cup of hot black tea. The staying power is amazing for this price-friendly perfume company, it lasts all day, and if it gets into the clothes it stays there for long.
LOVE ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT my 2end best one after Enigma
It is very heavy Perfume , sexy, Great lasting power , but it causes headache every time i wear it .very strong smell
i would like to thank Orchidlover for the pretty 4 ml bottle she gifted me :)
it was always in front of my eyes but i never gave it a try .. i dunt know why but i was foolish-y expected an amber bomb burst with some floral notes !!!
warm , sexy , sweet balanced between oriental and modernity ,with a fair long lasting on my skin. it remind me with Versace Crystal Noir which i adore ..the same sillage but this one dried down more oriental less sweet than CN.
its a high brand body butter mixed with soft warm eastern spices . amazing bottle matches perfectly the juice inside . i would love to get the whole set perfume, body cream , body spray and the roll on . another PERFECT hit by Oriflame !
8.5/10
this is a good perfume with sufficient staying power and with good top and middle notes. it gives different fragrance each time to me definitely a winter thing to me and good use of my money.
I agree that it`s very likable :) Too heavy at the beggining on me,but after 15mins stays great and not so loud.Very sweet begging,but not yummy sweetness.For Oriflame is more than great-lasts long enough and smells fantastic,in my opinion this is more for cold days.I usually don`t use Oriflame fragrances,but this and Divine are truly diamonds for me.
Very likeable.
This is my first oriflame-fragrance I have tried, and keeping in mind it is a budget-brand, I'm not dissapointed at all. It's warm and sweet, there is just one note somewhere which doesn't smell very natural and slightly sinthetic, I think it's the mandarin orange. Not very ambery, also not very classy as some may say, but definitely very woman-ish. Feminine is a word that makes me think of romance, while woman is more leaning towards power. And this amber elixir reminds me a little bit of that power.
ACTUAL NOTES (FROM ORIFLAME'S SITE):
TOP NOTES:
Black Currant / Mandarin Orange / Licorice
BASE NOTES:
Heliotrope / Amber / Musk
It's the first one that I've tried from Oriflame, and it made a good impression.
A high quality fragrance!
Very, very sweet at the begining, but who said sweet perfumes can't smell simultaneously sophisticated?
Really edible, natural aroma of mature grapes, currants, crispy, moist almonds ... Giving a sweetness I can't bear!
After about half an hour it settles down to a beautiful, cosy, warm, almondy-vanillic amber.
Agree with a comment below, similar to Hypnotic Poison at this stage! With a touch of Dior's Addict drydown.
Overall, a well-composed perfume for a very reasonable price. Sillage and lasting power are outstanding. Also, I think the bottle is nice, although I haven't seen it in reality.
Still, I prefer Hypnotic Poison.
very strong, last long, sweet from the first to the last note not very suitable for young women. Perfect for semi-formal and formal parties, I think.
Hmmm.........What should I write here?
Always experience the same with all the orientals fragrances from Oriflame. I have the sourness from the drydown. Actually I like the middle notes because the scent is warm, spicy and sensual, but unfortunately it's going on for just a few minutes. I wish it were spicier, rich and darker.
And the same story goes.....
Wanna go for a swap :-(
I wanted to try this so badly for so long. Finally I ordered a sample and I'm glad I didn't ordered a bottle. You know how Estee Lauders Youth Dew Amber New is a modern, watered down, poor version of original goddess of perfume Youth Dew? Well THIS fragrance Amber Elixir is like a watered down Youth Dew Amber Nude. So that's like double bad, because I was looking for something rich and potent. The scent is warm, yes amber is there but very soft. It's a warm very slightly spicy fragrance with fruity top notes which completely ruined it for me. This fragrance doesn't smell bad at all, far from it, but it is very modern, predictable and not unique. Mirage, which I didn't expect to like at all, but out of curiosity ordered a sample of it, impressed me more. Although nothing from Oriflame has floored me yet. The search continues!
What a great perfume!
It's my current fav from the bunch I own..
It lasts soo soooooooo long....even after a machine wash..
It's a brownish liquid so stains light coloured clothes :(
Quite strong at the beginning...sort of smell like men's perfume..
But the dry down is so amazing!!!
So lovely, sexy & oriental....
Absolutely wonderful. I'm not a fan of Oriflame - but this one is wonderful. Longlasting scent that surrounds me for many hours. Its like an excpensive perfum - to a very nice price. Sweet, warm and very female scent to me.
This is like a blend between Lolita Lempicka pour femme (original) and Fendi Palazzo edp (those amber basenotes...). Plus some subltle dark (vanilla almondsss...) grape undertone. It's really nice and... "Ka-ching!". Actually, it makes me think of that song.
This is the best perfume oriflame ever made, and the first one I bought from them. Surprisingly good. And it lasts well, it's all ok. Try it.
It smells luxurious to my skin. The base notes are sophisticated for me. It's worth trying a bottle (or more).
i have this and its pure amber smell. I am not saying it is worth to purchase but it is the smell remains last longer for 6 to 7 hours.
this one is very luxurious, blends very well with my skyn, is sweet caramel honey almond like. i feel is a very sexy perfume pleasant and warm
Very much like Hypnotic poison!
Good luck!
Action
i agree @sofiapap!! I like sweet fragrances.. which last well.. I love the bottle the fragrance and the power.. It overpowers .. thts the best thing about it.. I hope oriflame creates long lasting and powerful fragrances in the days to come! Buy it!
Feminine, deep, inviting, erotic. Bitter sweet smell of a hot body with the touch of animate sourness.
Apparently, skin chemistry matters very much with this perfume. Doesn't fit a young girl.
It really doesn't go well with my skin chemistry. A nice opening and pleasant middle, than a horrible, cheap-smelling, artificial base, however, it's pretty lasting. Anyway, the bottle is all I like in this.
I write again for this one because i want to support my opinion.Fruity opening with grapes to give a special quality.Floral sweet heart with almond-heliotrope-peony scents, and at the base an amber-woody aroma with long lasting power(not spicy but ambery sweet base).That is all .Feminine,classy fantastic long lasting formula.
"I wonder where that fish has gone..."
Sorry, couldn't resist. I just hate this kind of disappointment. "Amber Elixir", yeah. I was expecting sweet ambery-woody fragrance, both because of the basenotes and the lovely bottle (which reminds me of Youth Dew Amber Nude). But what we have, or at least - what I have on my skin right now - is a bunch of sticky flowers and something... erm, honeysh. But gods - this is NOT my divine amber. For me, too much of black currant and heliotrope. Kinda tiring.
The newcomer of oriflame is a classy ,sofisticated aroma.I bought the miniature and is perfect.It is woody and long lating.It reminds me of amber ylang-ylang of estee but in a playful way.I surely recommend it.
