Ormonde Jayne Ta'if Elixir

Product Information

Ta'if Elixir by Ormonde Jayne is a powerful, "smudged" reimagining of the brand's iconic Ta'if rose. Launched in 2019, it takes the exotic, spicy-floral DNA of the original and infuses it with a dark, sophisticated Cambodian Oudh, creating a scent of immense presence and panache.The Olfactory JourneyWhile the original Ta'if is often seen as a glamorous evening rose, the Elixir is its moodier, more mysterious sibling. It trades the "belle of the ball" sparkle for a deep, smoky intensity.Top Notes: A texturally rich opening of Saffron, Pink Pepper, and Dates. The dates provide a subtle, leathery sweetness that bridges the gap between the spice and the heart.Heart Notes: A lush, velvety core of Rose Oil (derived from the Ta’if rose), accented by Freesia, Orange Flower Absolute, and Jasmine.Soul (Base) Notes: This is where the Elixir diverges most significantly. It features a heavy foundation of Cambodian Oudh, paired with Amber and Broom. The oud here is described as "dry-as-a-bone" and smoky, rather than medicinal or animalic.Ta'if EDP vs. Ta'if ElixirFeatureTa'if Eau de ParfumTa'if ElixirFocusBright, opulent, peppery rose.Dark, smoky, oud-infused rose.VibeHigh-society, airy, and romantic.Powerful, mysterious, and commanding.LongevityGood (6–8 hours).Exceptional (10+ hours) due to the Elixir concentration.Key AdditionAmber and Broom dry-down.Cambodian Oudh for added depth and "grit."
