Nice surprise form JV

This is my first experience with a John Varvatos fragrance. I find that XX Elixir is warm, smooth, and smells super luxurious. The mix of spice, leather, and tonka makes it perfect for cooler weather and has been in my rotation this fall. The sillage is decent, but I do think you need to reapply if you want it to last all day. The bottle is nice looking and adds a cool look to any collection.

Decent value for the money.

Packaging was decent for a designer fragrance, great value for the money. Opens very heavy with a soft dry down. This is a very much tropical blue fragrance. Tropical minus coconut which is unique. It seems to last a lot longer than other jon varvatos fragrances which is great. All in all it is a fair value. Its not revolutionary but it is a good everyday scent.

Party perfect !

From the first spritz, it introduces a rich blend of woods and subtle spice that feels bold yet thoughtfully balanced. The opening is warm and slightly mysterious, giving the impression of a scent crafted for someone who appreciates depth without sacrificing wearability. As it develops, XX Elixir softens into a smooth, aromatic heart with hints of sweetness and gentle smokiness. This transition adds dimension and makes the fragrance feel both refined and approachable. It maintains the signature Varvatos edge—a mix of rock-and-roll attitude and tailored sophistication—without ever becoming overpowering. Performance is a strong point: the scent lasts for hours while projecting just enough to make an impression without overwhelming a room.

Not for me, but for someone!

This isn’t bad. A little strong for me, but it is VERY concentrated and does last all day with only one application. It wears very well, and this is one of many from my collection.

It Doesn't Stay Very Long.

I am very disappointed. This cologne doesn't stay very long. It goes away after about 3 minutes of wearing it. It's too expensive for what it lasts on.

Must have!

I recently experienced the captivating aroma of John Varvatos XX Elixir, and it's truly an exquisite addition to my fragrance collection. I was particularly impressed by its longevity, as the fragrance beautifully evolved throughout the day, leaving a lasting, pleasant trail. It’s the perfect olfactory accompaniment for evenings out or whenever I want to feel particularly polished. I highly recommend John Varvatos XX Elixir for anyone seeking a distinguished and contemporary fragrance. #JohnVarvatos #XXElixir #FragranceReview #MensCologne #ScentOfTheDay
