The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Elation by Navitus Parfums, launched in 2020 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, is a composition that balances freshness with warmth. The fragrance opens with bright citrus notes from yuzu, clementine, and pomelo, creating an invigorating start. This freshness is complemented by aromatic herbs like lavender and clary sage, which add depth without overpowering the top notes. As it evolves, warm spices such as nutmeg and amberwood emerge, grounding the composition with a sense of comfort and coziness.

How to wear it

Apply Elation two sprays at a time — the bright citrus notes are most noticeable in the first hour. The warm spices and amberwood base will gradually come through, making it suitable for daytime or early evening wear. For lasting warmth, apply to pulse points where your body heat can enhance its longevity.

Bertrand Duchaufour

The world traveler's nose

Bertrand Duchaufour is a perfumer-adventurer whose creations read like a travelogue of the senses. Trained at Roure (now Givaudan), his work draws deeply from his journeys through Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and sub-Saharan Africa.

“The art of perfumery must be at the same time, innovative, harmonius, and “sent bon”.”
