What Is Velixir Adonis a Dupe Of?

Velixir Adonis is a JPG Le Male Elixir clone

Velixir Adonis is a clone of JPG Le Male Elixir. We rate the similarity at 92%. Lavender, mint, vanilla, benzoin and tonka put Adonis in Le Male Elixir territory.

Adonis is the Velixir to look at if Le Male Elixir's sweet aromatic style is what you're after. Lavender and mint give you an easy place to start, with vanilla and benzoin following behind. The comparison here is with the original Le Male Elixir, and our 92% rating applies to that pair.

Vanilla warmth with an aromatic opening

Adonis has lavender and mint in its catalog opening, followed by Madagascar vanilla and benzoin. Tonka bean appears in the base. Those notes give the fragrance a clear aromatic-to-sweet direction, so you can see why it gets paired with the gold Le Male Elixir bottle.

Le Male Elixir lists mint and lavender too, along with vanilla, benzoin, honey, tonka bean and tobacco. The vanilla, benzoin and tonka connection is especially useful when comparing the two. There's more to this pairing than a general sweet-fragrance label: several recognizable parts of the structure line up.

If the vanilla side is your main reason for enjoying Le Male Elixir, Adonis is worth considering. If it's the honey or tobacco detail that interests you most, pay particular attention to that when sampling. The overall similarity score is helpful, but your favorite part of a fragrance can decide whether an alternative works for you.

Choosing Adonis or the original

Check the edition name when buying the JPG reference. Le Male Elixir, Le Male Le Parfum and Le Male Elixir Absolu are separate fragrances. This guide is about the original Elixir and Adonis, so keeping the exact bottle in view makes the 92% rating much more useful.
