John Varvatos XX Elixir ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 29 August 2025 Leave a Comment

John Varvatos has launched XX Elixir, a new fragrance for men. XX Elixir is a flanker to 2020's XX.

Confidently defy convention with John Varvatos XX Elixir, the fragrance for men. Create a bold and modern statement of decadent masculinity with this sophisticated, addictive scent that intertwines exotic florals, rich woods and leather for an unforgettable olfactory experience.

John Varvatos XX Elixir opens with exotic notes of Davana essence and spicy red ginger invigorated by a vibrant burst of fresh bergamot. Luxurious black iris and earthy geranium intertwine with the warmth of rum, a depth of cedarwood, sweet tonka bean and rich latigo leather. An intense, long-lasting addictive and masculine scent.

Additional notes include violet leaf and labdanum.

John Varvatos XX Elixir is available now at Macy's, in 75 ml.
