I was so excited when I opened my parcel and to find the Elixir inside, I've been wanting this fragrance ever since it came out, I tested it but when I went back to purchase they where sold out and so life rolled by. Beauty Bulletin made my entire week with this fragrance.

The packaging is really pretty with lots of detailing on the box. I really love the design of the bottle, I'm an online gamer, I play World of Warcraft and my main character has alchemy as a profession, this bottle reminds me so much of the bottles you use in game to create potions! It looks like a flask, the glass is tinted with silver detailing on the lid.

The fragrance itself smells really sophisticated and sensual, on first spray you really get a more sharp oriental smell, after a while the scent settles into a fruity floral scent, and lastly the base notes come forth in a soft oriental scent.

I am really enjoying my Shakira Elixir fragrance. I love the fresh floral tones and with just a hint of sweetness this fragrance is fun and versatile and can be worn in the day or in the evening for date night!

My husband recently brought me a bottle of the Shakira Elixir fragrance from his trip to the USA. I fell in love with the smell. It is flowery, sweet, fun and fabulous! Will definitely head to the shops to buy a bottle once mine is finished. I wear it everyday!

I was surprised that this was a Chanel perfume. It was definitely not what I would have expected from their range. It is so deliciously soft and feminine. Whereas the other Chanel fragrances smell so sharp and mature.

On my skin it transforms into a lovely warm vanilla and jasmine which surprisingly exudes sex appeal. I was always one for describing Chanel fragrances as being classy and conservative, never in my life would I have thought that one of their perfumes would be so sensual and sexy.

Allure still does, however, stay true to the Chanel style, remaining classy, elegant and timeless. What I love most about this fragrance is its ability to suit almost every occasion. You could wear it to work, on a date, to a wedding or anywhere your heart desires. You wouldn't even have to re-apply this perfume at the end of the day because the lasting power is so good.

It is fairly obvious and easy to conclude that a woman that wears this has impeccable taste in perfume.

I simply love this scent, its spicey and sweet at the same time. Gives me a lovely scent when I'm in one of my moods. This perfume is light but strong enough to let everyone know you're wearing this sexy smell in a bottle! Worth the try!

If you are a Shakira supporter you are bound to love this perfume almost as much as you love her!
