Elixir de Bombe 27 87 for women and men

My least favorite of the wild line collection.It just reminds me a little too much of past versions of myself for comfort.A nostalgic,I'm not.As a late teenager/very young adult I used to wear Black XS for Her by Paco Rabanne and for some reason this gave me a flashback so sudden, it was almost shocking.Very sweet,a little too sweet for my taste(lacks the edge I need for something like it to work),but hypnotizing and inviting if that's your thing.

This is far from your regular run of the mill gourmand! It doesn't come across as very gourmand at all, despite the notes. The leather, chili and ginger are all very present, something that makes this scent a bit harsh. I find the opening quite brutal tbh! My nose stings and for a few minutes it is a little like breathing poison. But Elixir de Bombe addictive in it's uniqueness too, it gets sweeter and more tolerable as time passes. Eventuelly it does turn into more of a spicy, fruity amber with a sassy kick. Nice!

Update: the more I wear it the more I love it. The best thing is how unique and querky it is.

The more I read about Mark Buxton creations, the less I understand what is so special about them. This "elixir' is a diluted fruit punch which develops into highly-deluted one shortly. I regret even of buying a sample... Thumbs down.

It smells like hairspray/dry shampoo : /

Da bomb diggity! Like a fuse it ignites- upon initial wear, i was underwhelmed- no hate nor dislike just no love becuz it reminded me of Map of the Heart, a freshie w fruit. 10-15 minutes later, it transformed into a sweeter state. Unique, wearable and totes enjoyable-Needs to project more and last longer otherwise RATED TNT DYNOMITE!

I have just received the sample set and the one fragrances that stands out to me is Elixir dr Bombe. A really unique stand out that has something cheerful as well very “grounding” in it. It smells maybe like a Christmas cookie with some fruits, but without that distinctive Christmas vide if it makes any sense. Quite versatile ❤️

Intoxicating indeed! Intensely fruity, fresh orange and raspberry, with lots of warm spices pepper ginger. I am getting Christmas vibes even though it's not really your typical Christmas scent. I think the leather works well here it grounds this gourmand and gives it more of a niche unisex aura.

This scent is really incredible! The most beautiful and unique aroma I've encountered in a long time. Fruity at first, but quickly transforms into an intoxicating aroma. The aroma is quite long-lasting. Incredible, a contemporary fragrance that is both amber and spicy. It's fantastic.

Sweet and somewhat astringent. I have been scratching my head what tis reminds me of. There was some kind of bugspray way back in the 80s. Now dont get me wrong but I kind of liked the smell. Would I wear this as a perfume? No. One of these niche experiences that is fun but not feeling it.

Such an amazing combination of notes. Spicy, juicy, sweet and mild, but so weak!

Registered just to write that this is the most gorgeous and original scent I have come across in a while. It will be my signature scent for the foreseeable future.

The brand has some really amazing and unique scents and I highly recommend the discovery set

The opening is great! You can really feel red pepper with tangerine, then raspberry comes and this combination is amazing.
Unfortunately in 15 minutes all the spiciness is disappearing and it’s just a very simple raspberry.
If it would stay more complex through the whole time, I’d definitely get it. But unfortunately no..

It opens spicy and fruity, perhaps it´s the ginger or red pepper in the beginning that was something unique and exciting, balanced by some pink fruit and caramel in the background. I loved the first few seconds after spraying it and I thought it was a great piece of art until... the spiciness just faded away, just in a few seconds, leaving only the sweetness that started smelling like the perfumes you wore when you were 16. Or maybe I just don't like caramel type of scents that much. This is definitely more feminine that unisex. I see it was supposed to be something confident and sensual but to me it feels too girly and mainstream, nothing that I haven't smelled before. It´s not bad but just not for me.

The rose depicted in the middle notes of the perfume pyramid is wrong, it should be a rock rose, labdanum, as stated in the text above.

In the "Main Notes According to Your Votes" the rose doesn't show up ... which proves that the fragranticans who voted have an excellent sense of smell

Not bad! a modern parfum, amber and spicy at the same time. The predominant notes are amber and ginger. Not particularly original but somehow I like it... it's unisex and I think it could be ideal for cold days. I'll try other perfumes 27 87.

Raspberry tangerine leather.

Raspberry, leather, ginger, & tangerine.

The usual raspberry leather blend with extra tangerine, and ginger. and i just realized that it's another version of "Charles Street" by Mark Birley and i just read that it is a creation of Tom!!

Edit (5th Oct 2017) well.. as the owner asked Tom to create a sexy fragrance, well... it is the commercial slutty from the 90s! The cheap perfume when women makes fun of other women either from look or reputation back then! They keep on saying "that B$#ch with cheap perfume", "Elixir de Bombe" is that cheap perfume. It's not the cheap ingredients cause it's not, but the blend and the notes order used does form that cheap perfume expression. It is an overly sweet and cloying sugary raspberry stuff.

Oh, this is so modern Baxton perfume. It is bright, pink and so-so fruity gourmand. However, there is Mark's signature inside - refined and elegant. If you love and appreciate works of this artist, Elixir de Bombe is your must-try.

This perfume is simply amazing! Fruity start, but then an addictive fragrance unfolds. Very long-lasting fragrance. Unidentifiable, the scent marks on my skin on dancing. Incredible work!
