The review
On paper, Flaming Elixir is a reasonable bet if you want Cherry Smoke for less.
Maison Alhambra sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Cherry Smoke's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Maison Alhambra publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on cherry, saffron and pink pepper, turns to rose, incense and birch, and settles into leather, woody notes and amber. That is the brief Flaming Elixir is working from.
Top
- cherry
- saffron
- pink pepper
Heart
- rose
- incense
- birch
Base
- leather
- woody notes
- amber
Dark cherry wreathed in smoke, leather and incense; a moody, sophisticated fruit-gone-noir.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
