Product Details

Elie Saab Le Parfum is a fragrance for women that was launched in 2011. The perfume opens with notes of orange blossom, followed by jasmine in the heart, including both Grandiflorum and Sambac, and the base consists of cedar, patchouli, and rose honey. The fragrance was created by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. The simple glass bottle of Baroque style was designed by Syvie de France. Le Parfum is available as 30, 50, and 90 ml Eau de Parfum with an accompanying collection that includes perfumed deodorant, body lotion, body cream, and shower gel.

Positive

  • The fragrance is well-rounded, sophisticated, and has noticeable sillage and staying power.
  • The perfume has a coherent character and lasts well.
  • The fragrance is a bit more mature, but still feminine and signature-worthy.
  • The perfume has a great diffusion.
  • The fragrance is 91% top allergen-free and free of gluten, coconut, nickel, preservatives, and other harmful ingredients.

Negative

  • The fragrance is loud and relentless, with a persistence of sharp woody notes that borders on irritating.
  • The fragrance is a cross between Sensuous and Narciso Rodriguez for Her, which are both acrylic florals.
  • The press release describes it as “an ode to light.” If so, it is like being blinded by a projector, an almost painful experience.
