The story behind the bottle.
Vivo Elixir, launched in 2026 by Cerruti, is a bold statement from the Italian fashion house known for its rich textile heritage. Crafted by perfumers Frank Voelkl and Grégoire Balleydier, this Oriental Fougere fragrance opens with a striking metallic and pink pepper accord that immediately draws attention. The heart of lavender and saffron adds an unexpected floral warmth, while the base notes of oud, leather, amber, and vanilla create a complex, enveloping embrace. This composition is both modern and lasting, reflecting Cerruti's enduring legacy.
Apply two sprays to pulse points for a balanced presence. The metallic top notes dissipate quickly, so let it settle for five minutes before heading out. This fragrance reads better close to skin than in the air, making it ideal for intimate settings or one-on-one meetings.
