  I had the chance to try it last week. In a way, it was delicious, but it has a serious flaw: as the ‘Elixir’, it repeats the mistake of its predecessor, lacking power and presence. This Love Game remains shy and muted, far from what the advertising promises. The notes are sensual but almost imperceptible. Limited longevity and a soft trail. Recommended only for those seeking soft, fruity scents.

  What a delicious new fragrance from Kenzo! The blackberry takes centre stage, settling on fresh and cheerful skin. The trail is super rich and the longevity is very good. Definitely going into my collection! It’s a scent with personality, carrying that distinctive Kenzo touch that never goes unnoticed, youthful and versatile. A very good option for spring and summer because, although fruity, it’s not cloying or overwhelming. As it settles, the white flowers become noticeable and it’s very captivating. I loved it!

  I tried this new Kenzo launch and was very surprised; it’s already on my wishlist with a sense of urgency. Everything revolves around sweet blackberry, slightly tart with mandarin, totally vibrant and seductive. That’s why I think it’s L’Elixir: more sensual and addictive than Jeu d’Amour, which is more tender and dreamy. The rum accompanies the blackberry and makes the aroma intoxicating. I don’t notice the vanilla and caramel separately, but they are responsible for the sweetness. The neroli, jasmine, and sandalwood soften the blend; without them it would be shrill and vulgar. On my skin, Kenzo always has good staying power and sillage, and this is no exception. It all depends on the magic of the chemistry with the skin.

  I tried this new Kenzo launch and was very surprised; I already have it on my wishlist with urgency. Everything revolves around sweet blackberry, slightly acidic with mandarin, totally vibrant and seductive. That’s why I think it’s L’Elixir: more sensual and addictive than Jeu d’Amour, which is sweeter and dreamier. The rum accompanies the blackberry, making the scent intoxicating. I don’t smell the vanilla and caramel separately, but they are responsible for the sweetness. The neroli, jasmine and sandalwood soften the blend; without them it would be shrill and vulgar.

  What a delicious new fragrance from Kenzo! The blackcurrant takes centre stage and settles on fresh, cheerful skin. The sillage is superb and the longevity very good. Definitely going into my collection! It’s a scent with personality, with that distinctive Kenzo touch that never goes unnoticed, youthful and versatile. A very good option for spring and summer because, although fruity, it doesn’t cloy or overwhelm. Once it settles, the white flowers come through and it’s very captivating. I loved it!

  Intense, very seductive, feminine, and long-lasting. Delicious, I want it, I need it.

  I’ve just bought this fragrance and it has a sweet aroma, without being strong or cloying, rather soft. In my opinion, it’s like a cocktail of Midnight Tresor, Poison Girl, and Black Opium. It’s feminine, nocturnal, and sexy, with good staying power.

  I was given ten samples when buying something else, so I’ve already been enjoying it. It’s ideal for autumn or winter due to its sweetness. It reminds me of Opium Black (much softer), Poison Girl and Valentino Donna in that sweet fruity touch, not in longevity or trail. It’s rich, pleasant and moderate, but if you don’t like sweet things, give it a try. The caramel, rum and vanilla are very noticeable, with blackcurrant softening it. I’d like it to have a woody touch to add more warmth and elegance. The trail isn’t very strong and the longevity is average; it sticks to the nose quickly, but it’s bearable. I’m not sure if I’d buy it; I prefer Valentino Donna or Black Opium a thousand times over. I’ll keep using it and if it wins me over, I’ll buy it to tell you all.

  I received about ten sample vials when buying something else, so I’ve already had a chance to enjoy it. It’s ideal for autumn or winter due to its sweetness. It reminds me of Opium Black (much softer), Poison Girl, and Valentino Donna in that sweet fruity note, though not in longevity or sillage. It’s rich, pleasant, and moderate, but if you don’t like sweet scents, give it a miss. The caramel, rum, and vanilla notes are very prominent, softened by the blackcurrant. I’d love for it to have a touch of wood to add more warmth and elegance. The sillage isn’t huge and the longevity is average; it sticks to the nose quite quickly, but it’s bearable. I’m not sure if I’d buy it; I prefer Valentino Donna or Black Opium a thousand times over. I’ll keep using it, and if I fall in love with it, I’ll buy a bottle to tell you all about it.

  I love this perfume! It’s one of my favourites. Good longevity, good trail. I adore it and receive compliments. It’s quite sweet and beautiful.

  I own this perfume; I had tried Jeu d’Amour and thought it wonderful, so I wanted to try this Elixir and bought it blindly… it resembles the predecessor quite a bit! It smells of blackberries, rum, and caramel, an explosive combination. However, it lacks a powerful trail and great longevity… still, it smells exquisite and I don’t think it resembles Midnight Rose or Black Opium, which I also own. It’s a perfume with its own personality but with poor longevity.

  I find it very similar to Jeu d’Amour Félin. The opening is citrusy, but once it settles, the raspberry explodes yet remains warm, almost cooked, turning bitter and acidic; the sweetness comes from burnt caramel and vanilla. I can detect sandalwood, patchouli, a very subtle rum, and jasmine. On my pH, the neroli wasn’t noticeable. It’s the sexiest of all; unlike Félin, which is sexy but feels more youthful and sparkly to me. The berries make them very similar, and on my pH they dominate almost throughout, highlighting their acidity. The trail is good, it projects well, but the longevity is just three hours.

  I bought it blindly and was disappointed; I prefer the classic. The trail on my skin is weak and barely noticeable.

  Doesn’t smell much when first sprayed, and what little there is smells like expired medicine. Later, once it dries, it smells like an old house with incense. A pity.

  I am absolutely fascinated! It is elegant, suitable for both day and night. It lasts a long time; even after 24 hours, I take a shower and it still smells :O. It is simply gorgeous!

  I absolutely love it! It’s super elegant and works equally well day or night. It has incredible staying power; even after 24 hours, I wash it off and it still lingers! :O What a beauty!

  In my opinion, it is very elegant. Suitable for formal and special events. I would wear it more in winter. It is not youthful. The longevity on my skin is over eight hours.

  More sober than Flower Elixir, less loving and more formal, quite intense; it seems like a concentrated juice of sugars and liqueur syrup. I apply a small amount and it projects with character, sweet and enigmatic, somewhat sober and nocturnal, perfect for autumn/winter. Exquisite combinations: a) with Her de Burberry EDP, it gives more acidic, modern red fruit notes; b) with Escale a Portofino by Dior, it adds a summery acidity of fresh lemons; c) with Flower Poppy EDP, it brings freshness and cheerfulness; d) with Amour, it blends perfectly and lasts longer. In short, this beautiful fragrance lacks structure; it needs to be made lighter, liberated, and given flight. On its own, it feels monotonous and dense, just like with Flower Elixir (though I consider the latter superior). As it stands, it’s ideal for perfuming mohair garments, wool scarves, or polar clothing for snowy weather. It evokes the scent of liqueurs and raspberry and blackberry desserts enjoyed in a cabin by the warmth of a crackling fire. The bottle, which we already know, is beautiful in a dark violet hue that anticipates the style; it is the most dramatic of the entire Amour collection.

  Neither honour nor glory, no trail, no compliments. I finished it in a week because I didn’t feel it and had to apply it in huge quantities. The scent is lovely, but it only registers while you’re spraying it.

  The Kenzo samples have arrived. After the Flower disaster (which smelled of baby powder), I was terrified of what this might be… it’s not bad, but it’s very generic. It feels like all designer perfumes use the same base and end up smelling identical. It’s not terrible, nor is it new or something I’d invest money in, even if it were cheap… I can’t distinguish any notes, neither caramel nor fruit; it just smells like a semi-sweet perfume and what you’d find in the commercial department of department stores. Although I no longer wear it, the only Kenzo I’ve liked and which I believe stands out is L’Eau par Kenzo.
