What is the difference between perfume and elixir perfume?
Elixir perfumes typically have a higher concentration of aromatic compounds compared to regular perfumes. Standard perfumes consist of a fragrance oil concentration of 15% to 20%. On the other hand, elixirs have the potential of containing oils to a concentration of 30% or more at times. Due to this, elixirs tend to have an intense scent that last longer, and they are suitable for people who like rich fragrances.
What does eau de merveilles smell like?
Eau de Merveilles by Hermès is a fragrance that captures the essence of natural wonder and mystery. Unlike the Elixir, it has a light and brilliant scent, where the salty of the ocean notes are combined with the woody and the amber notes from the light bulb. It is not as sweet as the Elixir, but it has a clearer and finer presence, so it is great for comfortable, all-day wear.
Is Hermès Elixir des Merveilles suitable for all occasions?
Hermès Elixir des Merveilles is a versatile fragrance, suitable for various occasions. Its dense and heavy mixture is the reason why it is preferable to wear it on evenings and at special occasions, while the cozy and reassuring notes enable it to be worn in the daytime during cool months. The purity and warmth it has together, therefore, it is very appropriate for small, classy meetings.
Can Hermès Elixir des Merveilles be worn by both men and women?
Yes, Hermès Elixir des Merveilles is a unisex fragrance. It mostly targets women but its warm amber and woody notes also are attractive to men. No matter the gender, the person loving a complex and exclusive scent would be the one to enjoy it.
Where should Hermès Elixir des Merveilles be applied?
It is recommended to apply Hermès Elixir des Merveilles on pulse points, such as the wrists, behind the ears, and at the base of the neck. Such places distribute the perfume throughout the body owing to the heat that the blood vessels release. The way of the lightly disposing on the clothes and hair is also an appropriate duration for the perfume to remain longer.
How long does Hermès Elixir des Merveilles last?
As an elixir perfume, it typically lasts longer on the skin compared to standard perfumes. The time it can be on the skin (8-12 hours) depends on the type of skin you have, the environmental relative humidity, and the dosage you apply. For a long day with a lovely scent, normally just 2 sprays will be enough.

I would not buy this product again! Elixir Des Merveilles
I love Elixir Des Merveilles perfume and have used it for many years daily. Unfortunately this is somewhat weaker and the fragrance doesn't last long! I had some left which I bought else where and the colour of the perfume in the bottle was much darker. The coloured glass bottle was the same. Unfortunately I bought two and it wasn't any cheaper than else where which was perfume!

No, I would not recommend to a friend.

My New Favorite
I love this scent. I just discovered it about a year ago. It is quite pricey but the smell is unique. People tell me that they still smell the scent after hours but I do not think it holds too long. I love it still and wear it daily. I need no special occasion to wear it. I think it can be worn anytime.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

A magnet
I don't go anywhere if I have this on that people don't go kind of crazy. There are some people who see me show up and come right over and start sniffing me. It's really funny. A lovely scent. I find if you put too much on, it overpowers everything around it. You can use less and it lasts just as well for quite a long time. Best perfume buy I've made in several years. I wear it all the time now, even to walk my dogs.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Deep, sensual and unusual
This scent is a great scent. It's edgier than the Eau de Merveilles and that's just what I like about it. I've had male friends grab my arm and snift it. One gay friend, grabbed my arm and rubbed it on his shoulder for fun! :) It's unusual, it's incredibly sexy, it's long lasting and as the day wears on it changes to other great scents.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I found the
After spending years trying to find my signature scent, I believe I have found it. This scent is warm and sophisticated. It is unlike the current scents on the market, which all smell alike, in my opinion. I feel so good when I spray this on and would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for something different, but elegant. Elixer Des Merveiles has been compared to Dune by Christian Dior. I would agree, however, would say this is more subtle and sophisticated. Give it a try; you will not be disappointed.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
