    I picked this up very recently in a combo auction on ebay after smelling it in stores and you described it well! Insanely sweet, slightly femme florals, really excellent dry down. I have nothing like this and its ridiculousness is part of the appeal.

    This one is pretty solid, but I feel it’s best suited for someone with a smaller collection that just needs an all-in-one cool weather + night out sweet vanilla fragrance. It will definitely get attention. If you have a larger collection with niche and high end designers then it’s probably one that won’t get much if any use.

    Gerard, another excellent & honest review by you. I agree with your opinion on 1 Million Elixir & I also like Boss Bottle Elixir more than all the other elixir fragrances. If I was younger, maybe I would like 1 Million Elixir more. The only 1 Million that I own & love is 1 Million Prive which is discontinued. BTW, I hope that you quadruple your subscribers in 2024. Your content is consistently excellent and I hope more people can find your channel in 2024.

    I think you hit the nail on the head with this one Gerard! I enjoy this fragrance, but it’s not my cup of tea. I have a PR sampler pack with this in it -I’m glad I got to test it out - not full bottle worthy for me. The Parfum on the other hand, might be one I pull the trigger on!

    Thanks for the review man. Last year was The Elixir year. Will '24 be the year of The Privé? Recent elixirs I got were JPG and Boss Bottled and next up will be Ralph's club. 1 Million Elizer teeters just a little bit on the cloying side for me to purchase. I would be open to a good dupe tho lol

    This is my absolute all time favorite fragrance. I gotten more compliments from it within 1 day of owning it than from any other fragrance in its lifetime. I am in love. Everybody loves it, but I love it the most. I am already planning on ordering the 200ml bottle if the first 100ml gets as much as "suspiciously light"

  • @michaelserns1516

    This one is kind of ok for me. I get a ton of very sweet jammy rose for the majority of the scent, which is a long time on my skin. Kind of a fragrance without a purpose for my taste as I don't really find a time/place I want to smell like this. I much prefer Privee to this. Merry Christmas to you and your family, hope it is amazing!!

    I can stand sweet fragrances like JPG Elixir as the sweetest I can digest but this one goes beyond from what I can tell from all the comments.

    I originally didn’t like this fragrance but my wife went nuts for it and thought it was a sexy masculine scent. I thought otherwise, right from the off It leaned more feminine and can see why women go crazy for it. I ended up getting her a bottle as she enjoys wearing masculine, unisex and feminine scents and she loved it. I tested it once or twice then ended up getting one for myself on the cheap of eBay for $ 35 for a 1.7 ounces with 40ml remaining. it’s not one of my most worn as it lacks versatility as you mentioned and it’s more on the youthful side but the dry down amazing.

    @MrD3llz 6 місяців тому +1

    I think it's great and probably the most mass appealing elixir. Although I do agree with what you're saying, if you just want that compliment factor this will work in pretty much any situation. I think when we step back and remember 99% of ppl aren't freg heads like us this has really insane appeal. This is probably my most complimented fragrance, I dunno just seems to garner attention, it's not gonna wow anybody or blow ppl away but the "you smell good/nice" just keep rolling in 😂. I like it, easy to wear for me, easy appeal for anyone around me and just fits my persona. But I'm a person where sweet fragrances do much better for me than more traditional masculine fragrances.

    • @MrD3llz
      @MrD3llz 6 місяців тому

    Haven't smelled it beyond tester strip in store. I've yet to smell a 1 million that wows me in the slightest. Kinda makes me feel like a snob saying that, but when I can get Manceras for cheaper and do the same job better (in my opinion), I'll stick with the Manceras. And of course there's multiple Mercedes fragrances that do this for way cheaper as well
