Hypnôse Hypnotizing Elixir

The subtle hum of an urban rooftop garden at twilight, where the scent of vanilla and earthy woods mixes with soft florals and a hint of sweet fruit.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2008, Hypnôse Hypnotizing Elixir by Lancôme is an Oriental Woody fragrance that weaves together a complex blend of notes to create a rich and captivating scent. The composition begins with aromatic and fruity top notes, which add brightness and freshness before giving way to a heart of floral and powdery accords. This blend transitions smoothly into a warm base of vanilla, woody, and earthy tones, creating a deep and enveloping aroma that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays on pulse points. The aromatic top notes are fleeting but vibrant; the true heart of this fragrance emerges after about 30 minutes. It's best worn in cooler weather or as an evening scent due to its rich, enveloping base.
