REVIEWS

Fragrantica - "My favorite Kayali scent. It was love at first sniff, I bought the biggest bottle after wearing the mini for a few days. It's what snow white or a modern vampire would wear...It has a tragic elegance to it. It's mysterious, powerful, it smells moody, like a broken dream..."

Fragrantica - "Elixar is my new favorite. It smells amazing on me. I can't remember if I wrote a review already but at first it smelled like a nail salon. I think you might have to shake the bottles to mix. Now that I'm at the half way point of my bottle it's stronger and I love it. Can def smell the apple. Love love love. Will be getting the big bottle."

Fragrantica - "This is kind of a sexy bossy grown up woman that gets lots of attention and compliments. Smells rich and confident. Sexiness in a bottle."

Fragrantica - "I love this! It has such an Arab smelling rosey vibe. It smells like creamy turkish delight and candied apple and the very slightest hint of patchouli. I also get a deep vanilla in the dry down.  Ps. Scent trail is gorgeous on this one."

Fragrantica - "I love this fragrance. I think it's a beautiful modern rose with sensual nuances and I get tons of compliments when I wear it. It has become a favorite of mine and I will be purchasing a big bottle asap. If you like rose forward scents give this one a try."

Fragrantica - "This is so beautiful. On my skin it's sweet red apple, rose and vanilla. This was a blind buy. I was worried it would be too intense but it's light and airy. I look forward to wearing it literally everywhere. I think it can be worn by anyone but it leans feminine. If my boyfriend wore it I would think he smelled sexy. This is so good. I wish I tried this sooner....This lasted on my skin for 10 hours. I got whiffs of it all day. Love it."

Fragrantica - "I really love this and all of the other kayalis. They smell great and are very wearable. I love the apple in this one. I really like this the more i wear it. I think this is definitely signature scent worthy bc it is fine for all seasons and all occasions. It isnt super complex or challenging to wear, but it does smell different. I love layering it with NR fleur musk."

Fragrantica - "So far this the best Kayali I've tried (and I've tried all except Sweet Diamond and Invite Only). Veering on oriental without fully going there, the combo of jammy rose, sweet synthetic apples and earthy sharp patchouli is enjoyable. The fruity sweetness here is balanced out by patchouli and amber which give it depth and warmth, it doesn't feel as lacking in depth or juvenile as some of the other scents from this house. The patchouli is to die for; earthy, dark and chocolate-y. Easy grab and go scent for me."

Fragrantica - "I loved this scent with roses, apples and Jasmine with a heavenly dry down with warm woody notes from Patchouli, velvety ambery notes and a little amount of sweetness from Vanilla. Longevity is great, I could still smell it on my wrist next morning.  Very pleasant and sophisticated, seductive scent!"

Fragrantica - "This is a WONDERFUL fragrance. It's unique, mystical, magical and every note sits so well on me. It has a complexity, with different notes popping out over time. It has a strong oriental vibe, a deep resonant colour and a scent reminiscent of Turkish Delight, deep and delicious. It's like announcing to the world that you're well-travelled, intelligent, mysterious. You love belly dancing and Aleppo souqs. It will make you feel like an alluring, light-hearted and perspicacious vampire."

Fragrantica - "This scent is gorgeous! It's a relatively heavy patchouli scent but it doesn't overwhelm. I hate patchouli and generally don't love rose but this is really pleasant. Definitely needs to be tested before it's bought. I don't feel like it suits me as a person but it is really nice and unisex nonetheless. Very wintery."

Fragrantica - "A unique patchouli rose dips a manicured toe into the MidEast. Moody, gloomy (in a comfy under the covers on a rainy day kind of way). Mature, youthful. Kind of dark, kind of airy, slightly sensual. This scent is an intriguing composition of contradictions. I don't detect any apple at all, unlike Eden Juicy Apple in which the apple bursts into a green & juicy overture. The evolution of this Elixir 11 is reeeaaally good, becomes more & more mesmerizing throughout the day; I love scents that take me on a journey."

Fragrantica - "It's perfect for fall, and I enjoy layering it with Kayali's Eden Juicy Apple to really bring out the apple. I wore it all day today on a hike and then to a brewery, and I could get delicious apple-y whiffs all day. It lasts better than most Kayali on my skin."


Fragrantica - "I adore this it's so unique and sexy. I usually buy myself perfume for Christmas and I got this one and a couple other KayAlis. This is much stronger than I remember it being and I'm excited about that. I layered it over the Velvet wedding one and sooooo good. I've been smelling whiffs of it all day at work!"

Fragrantica - "When I wear this, I feel like a bad Btch !!! Million dollar Queen! I hate patchouli but this scent is different....maybe it's the apple...it smells good and strong."

Fragrantica - "It gave me one of my 'wow' moments in 2023. It reminds me of Soir de Lune - SdL has more obvious rose and is warmer, Elixir 11 is cooler (more woody?), more mysterious and keeps you guessing.  Very refined, my new choice for evenings in spring for fine dining and theatre."

Fragrantica - "I am genuinely impressed. These notes play well together and everything shines equally without the perfume being too overpowering. I wish the apple note would have come out a little more, but overall I do like this scent. Great for an autumn night. It's sensual but not too much, so it's versatile for a date night out or a cozy night in."

Fragrantica - "Wow What a lovely fragrance! It's sophisticated, elegant, deep and feminine. It's a unique type of scent; I can't really compare it closely with another one.  The rose here is definitely the dominant note - a bit of a deep oriental rose (ever so slightly like Turkish delight) - and there is just the right dose of sweetness in it.  I would not layer this, as it's absolute perfection on its own! If you like oriental perfumes but are not too sure about ouds, then this might be a great choice.  Whenever I wear it, I get ompliments, so I feel like its something many people could easily love, while still not falling under the basic crowd-pleaser scent category.  This and Sweet Diamond are my favourite Kayalis.  Definitely worth a blind buy ;)"

Fragrantica - "Elixir 11 is my 2nd favorite fragrance in the Kayali line. The juice is so UNIQUE. It's sexy, dark, alluring, & RICH $$$, with a hint of sweetness. There's something about this formula that is super velvety. My nose absolutely loves Elixir I hope they never discontinue this beauty!  I feel like Elixir 11 is under appreciated in the Kayali fragrance line up... I feel like this here was formulated for a sexy, sophisticated BO$$ babe who is mysterious in her ways.  Oh & I absolutely love that Apple is the star note in this fragrance & it is so juicy even though this scent is on the dark side. The Apple was done righteous."
