Rouge Elixir

Rouge Elixir, a 2024 elixir from Anfar London composed by Mushtaque Anfar, is equally spicy and floral, with strong woody and citrus sides and smaller musky and amber touches.

The opening is bright: mandarin orange gives a sweet citrus sparkle, and lemon verbena a fresh, lemony herbal note. Cloves, clove and cinnamon bring warm, sweet and slightly medicinal spice. The heart is a spiced floral bouquet: carnation adds a clove-like, peppery floral note, rose a velvety petal richness and lily of the valley a fresh, dewy touch. The base is warm and woody: Brazilian rosewood gives a smooth, slightly sweet woodiness, vetiver an earthy dryness, myrrh a balsamic resin, and vanilla, amber and musk a warm, golden finish.

As an elixir, it is presented as a rich, concentrated form. The profile suggests autumn and winter, evenings and formal or festive occasions. It is meant to be worn by anyone who likes spiced rose and carnation over warm woods and resin, in a rich, classic style.
