What wearers say
“Good all-rounder fragrance, gets the broad strokes of the Y Elixir smell and is very pleasant. Definitely not as good as Y Elixir, but at the price point its hard to complain. Wish it projected a little more and lasted a bit longer, but it's still a great daily wear, especially for an office scent.”
“Abadi Opulent is a very good clone of YSL Y ELixir and I would say 90% similar.From the first spray you got that spicy fresh and woody/oud smell.Dries down to a lavender, resinous/earthy, fruity/appel smell with ambroxan shower gel vibes.Definitely worth trying, and very cheap for such good quality and a must have if you like YSL Y Elixir.Longevity is about 5h, I will let it macerate.”
“Disappointed with this one. It only smell like Y Elixir the first 15 minutes. Then goes directly to drydown wich is not pleasant at all. Imo find another dupe or buy the original one.”
