About Al Ambra Black Forest Elixir

Elixir has the longest note list of the four scents FragranceGems sells. The shop lists the opening as aldehydes, white peach, bergamot, mandarin and orange. Aldehydes are aroma molecules that give a clean, sparkling, slightly soapy lift; the peach and the three citrus fruits sit beneath them. The heart is orange blossom, ambrette, lily of the valley, vetiver and mahonia: white flowers with ambrette, a musky seed, and vetiver, an earthy root. The base is musk, ambroxan, akigalawood, vanilla, vetiver and patchouli.

Al Ambra's own page gives a shorter pyramid. It names aldehydes, bergamot, mandarin orange and white peach at the top; orange blossom, lily of the valley and ambrette in the heart; and musk, vanilla, ambroxan, patchouli and woods in the base. Vetiver, mahonia and akigalawood appear only in the shop's list. The brand describes the result as a clean, aldehydic floral with a soft musky finish and suggests it for spring and summer.

Going by the notes, Elixir is not simply a stronger Black Forest. The two share a name and one note, ambroxan. Black Forest lists grapefruit, ambroxan and woody notes; Elixir is built on aldehydes, white flowers, musk and vanilla. The comparison has the details.

Among the scents in the shop, Elixir sits closest in notes to Dubai Musk: both list bergamot, mandarin and musk. It shares bergamot, orange and ambroxan with Ravenna.

The shop lists Black Forest Elixir as unisex and files it under the citrus, floral, oriental and woody families. The brand gives the United Arab Emirates as the country of origin. The price, and whether it can be ordered today, are on the product page in the shop.
