  1. Tried it in 2022 and it is a fantastic underrated fragrance, now discontinued. Smells like boozy peach with woody notes and a sweet vanilla touch. The longevity exceeds four hours, projects strongly, and lasts on the skin even after a shower. I still have three sprays left to keep as a memento or for special occasions.

  2. Ésika Element: Undoubtedly one of the best fragrances in the catalogue. It deserves to be elevated and included in any designer house. It achieves a woody and vanilla accord, and although alcohol isn’t listed, it feels fresh and mentholated, combining brilliantly. It competes with 212 VIP, Versace Eros, Code Profumo, or Absolute in a more than decent way. I would add a surprising touch to it. It is a gem in the catalogue that deserves to be much more known. Perhaps the only drawback is that it comes in a 75 ml presentation. In terms of scent, performance, and quality, it is a must-have in your wardrobe: an all-rounder that looks good always, sexy, fun, striking, attractive, and refined. Generous performance, lasting about two and a half hours doing its job. In short, a very good essential fragrance. Value for money: unbeatable. Scent: 10. Projection: 2 hours (good). Longevity: 6 hours. Recommended.

  3. Ésika Element: Undoubtedly one of the best catalogue fragrances… A fragrance that could well leave this line and be elevated to become part of any designer house. That woody and vanilla accord is very well achieved, and although the liquor note isn’t declared, it is perceived with a very fresh, almost mentholated part, which goes wonderfully with it. It competes with 212 VIP, Versace Eros, Code Profumo, or Absolute and does so in a more than decent way; I would give it a distinction. It is one of the gems from catalogue houses that show work that deserves to be much more known and applauded. Perhaps the only thing that could be improved is that it comes in a 75 ml presentation. More for its scent, performance, and quality, it makes it a must-have fragrance in your wardrobe. An all-rounder that looks good always, it is sexy, fun, striking, attractive, refined, and a genuine head-turner. Its performance is generous, as for two hours and a bit more it stays there, doing its job. In short, it is a very good fragrance with an essential stamp. Value for money: unbeatable. Scent: 10. Projection: 2 hours (good). Longevity: 6 hours. Recommended.

  4. It smells very similar to Carolina Herrera’s 212 VIP. It is not really my style, but I keep it and use it from time to time. I feel it works better in informal settings on a cold night; I don’t see it as casual for daily use, even in cool weather. Average longevity; on me it lasts sometimes five hours and other times eight, I don’t know why it varies, but it is not bad at all.

    Great perfume, niche quality in the catalogue. Exquisite fruity opening (sweet apple) with a high-quality liquor heart, specifically cognac, and sweet woods too. Extraordinary longevity, 12 hours or more; if you apply it on clothes, it lasts until you wash them (it can easily last a week). Impossible to use in hot climates; temperatures below 15 degrees are required for it to shine in all its splendour. If you can get it, buy it without hesitation, as it was discontinued in 2023. For me, the best winter perfume from Ésika that I know.

    Brutal perfume, niche quality in the catalogue. Opens with an exquisite sweet apple, a fine liquor heart like cognac, and sweet woods. The longevity is insane, more than 12 hours; if you put it on your clothes, you have it for a week until you wash it. Forget about heat; it only works below 15 degrees to shine. If you catch it, buy it now, as they stopped making it in 2023. For me, it is the best winter fragrance from Ésika.
