Mint, lavender and bergamot open it. Amber, benzoin and pineapple fill the middle. Vanilla, tonka bean and musk close it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening and the finish belong to two different styles.

That tidiness is unusual and it shows in how cleanly the fragrance moves from one stage to the next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePineapple is the one that surprises people. In perfume it rarely smells like fresh fruit. It reads sweet and slightly fermented, closer to tinned pineapple or a rum cocktail than to something you would eat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenzoin deserves a mention too. It is a sweet resin with a faintly balsamic warmth, and it is what stops the vanilla finish from smelling flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Atralia Elixir smells like\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMint hits first and it is the green garden kind rather than a sharp menthol. Lavender arrives immediately behind it, clean and slightly soapy. Bergamot brightens both without pulling the opening towards citrus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the first few minutes this is a barbershop fragrance. Anyone who likes the smell of good shaving soap will recognise it at once. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen the middle changes direction. Pineapple comes in juicy and sharp-sweet, with the slightly boozy edge pineapple usually has in perfume. Amber adds a glowing warmth and benzoin brings a sticky resinous sweetness underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe finish is where it lands properly. Vanilla and tonka bean are soft, sweet and almond-like, with a quiet musk behind them. The drydown is warm and comforting rather than clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo fragrances in one wearing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top and the base belong to opposite families. Mint and lavender are the cool herbal materials used in classic masculine fresheners. Vanilla, tonka and amber are what sweet gourmands are built from.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost fragrances pick one side. This one does both in sequence, and pineapple is the hinge that makes the turn work. Its sweetness reaches back to the lavender and forward to the vanilla.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat that means in practice is simple. Spray it and you smell groomed. An hour later you smell warm and a little sweet. Both halves are good, but you need to want the second one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also explains who this is for. If pure gourmands are too much for you and plain barbershop scents are too plain, this is the one that sits between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eElixir or Absolute Ice?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth open on the same idea. Herbs, lavender and clean soap. After that they go to opposite places.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAtralia Elixir turns sweet. Pineapple, amber and vanilla take over within the hour, so it ends up warm and comforting. That makes it the better choice for evenings and cold weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolute Ice stays dry the whole way. Its base is almost pure musk, so the herbs remain readable to the end and nothing sweet appears. That makes it the better office bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose by the finish, not the opening. They are nearly the same fragrance for ten minutes and completely different after that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho should buy Atralia Elixir, and who should not\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy it if you want a sweet fragrance with a clean start. The mint and lavender give it a freshness most gourmands lack, which makes it easier to wear in company.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also suits cool weather particularly well. Amber, vanilla and benzoin all open up in cold air, and the fresh top stops the whole thing turning heavy indoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not buy it expecting a fresh fragrance. The barbershop part is the first act only, and anyone wanting clean all day should buy Absolute Ice instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkip it too if you dislike lavender or vanilla. Those two carry the fragrance between them, and there is no stage where either one is absent.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ATRALIA","offers":[{"title":"2 ML","offer_id":57504570278266,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ML","offer_id":57504570311034,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ML","offer_id":57504570343802,"sku":"0850051296378","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/0891\/4541\/files\/atralia-elixir.jpg?v=1793554405","url":"https:\/\/zaoud.it\/ru\/products\/atralia-elixir-edp","provider":"ZAOUD - Profumi Arabi di Nicchia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
