Frag-Mental's Elixir Video We Stole: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n09FO-dy-U4

Myke and Ryan sniff out the truth behind YSL's Y Elixir and share a few laughs connecting our quirky friendship dynamic to our honest, unfiltered opinions. We're not just spritzing and telling; we're about the genuine thrill of discovery, and this episode is drenched with it. From contrasting views on Fragrantica to our own night with Tariq by Eau De Moe, we're divulging it all. Plus, we've got some scented surprises in store for our Patreon supporters – think exclusive content and giveaways that'll make your nose tingle with delight!

We're cracking jokes about cultural vernacular (who knew 'fanny pack' could be so controversial?), while also getting serious about where this fragrance fits in the market. And for those with a nose for critique, we dissect a certain pricey perfume that's loud yet plays it safe: Is it a standout in a sea of sameness or just another costly cloud of scent? Join us as we dish out our final verdicts – skip, sample, or buy – and ponder the fate of these bold bottles in our ever-growing collection.

Ryan:

Hello everybody, welcome to the Cologne Podcast.

Myke:

I'm Mike and I'm Ryan. We're two best friends going on a fragrance journey, smelling brand new fragrances and giving you uneducated opinions.

Ryan:

Yeah, we're going to be smelling today. You ready, boys and girls. Oh yeah, ysl, y, little Ixler, lixer, why Lixer? Little Ixler, why Lixer, why Lixer we were talking about before we got on here. It's got to be one of the worst names we've had on here.

Myke:

They're just getting freaking crazy with it. That's not a French word. In a minute we're going to find out the origin of the word elixir. But first let me tell you what Alien with Blue Eyes on Fragrantica says about why elixir. He says new day, new elixir, and then Blank25 says this is a flat out disappointment. There is so much this could have been that's just boring Way overpriced. Just stick to the others in the Y line. It sucks just for the potential it could have had. And that's kind of how I feel about you, ryan, a lot of times.

Myke:

I'm always like God, you've got so much potential bud, come on bud.

Ryan:

If you're new to the show you just tuned in. Yeah, this is a podcast going on a fragrance journey. We're smelling all this stuff. We're fragrance enthusiasts Okay, that's right. We're bottle collectors. There are those out there, and no judgment against them.

Myke:

Yes, we're not collectors, we're enthusiasts. There's a difference, and so when a brand new bottle makes its way to our happy hands, we're giving it away. I don't know if we're giving this one away, right yeah, because you bought it.

Ryan:

Yeah, if it sucks, get my fucking money back. Yeah, I can fucking.

Myke:

I see it. He's got the receipt in like a vacuum seal.

Ryan:

However, we still be giving those fragrances away. Let me just tell you what we just gave away this month. We just notified all them. We gave away two 50 ml bottles of insidious by insider performs.

Myke:

The greatest of Vintis clone of all time.

Ryan:

I'm telling you it's fucking sick. Those people are going to fucking love it. We also gave away no limits by Philip Plein. We gave away Tariq by Ode Moe 100 ml bottle of that.

Myke:

We also gave away Serene with some extra decants, yeah, of soma fragrances, and this smells like my vagina by Goop and Heretic. You know how much that cost all those winners this month.

Ryan:

How much $6.

Myke:

That's it. That's it Over on patreoncom slash clone podcast. You guys need to go there. We have a lot of fun. We've got a live coming up where we're going to give away another bottle by Tir de Mez, the pure perfume, the parfum.

Ryan:

And if you just don't even win nothing, you're still getting things because you know what else you get there. You're going to get bonus episodes of this podcast and two other podcasts that we work on, weird stories from the web and eat the menu. So there you go Lots for $6. I don't know where you're going to find a better deal Now I did just let's go into this today's episode, but before we do, we got to give you our one night stand review of Tariq by Ode Moe.

Myke:

Hit the music, Todd yeah.

Ryan:

One night stand review. Well, mike, after spending the night with one Ode Moe, one of the nicest men we've ever met and you personally met in person. What do you say about Tariq?

Myke:

It's as close to a safe one by as you could possibly have.

Ryan:

I agree. We both had said that this was the bigger brother to a lot of wheat de l'eau. Ironically enough, by Yves Saint Laurent, it really is.

Myke:

It's very cardamom forward A little bit more sophisticated, got a little bit more energy. There's a sweetness to it. It smells less cheap in a way. I'd say Not that l'eau de l'eau smells cheap, but in the episode I talk about a kind of fringe that that fragrance has that after a while you kind of smell it. You wish it wouldn't be there, and that's just kind of a designer thing, so that's missing. Instead, there's this added like bubble gummy sweetness. That's really nice and look, you don't have to blind buy it though.

Ryan:

They offer samples and that's the best thing For sure and I also wanted to hit at this after the show. You know we go in here, we work on things. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, we have other side gigs. This fragrance I think in the episode I didn't think it was as loud as it was, but afterwards it is really loud and like a real soft, gentle way. I don't know how to explain that. We've had a couple of fragrances that have done that from time to time and people have actually called me out like it's soft but it's loud. I promise you that's a thing.

Myke:

Right, it's like a pillow, if I can swing it hard enough to knock you off your feet. It's technically soft.

Ryan:

So we both thought it was a buy a hard sample to a buy For sure.

Myke:

Yeah, Again, we don't encourage blind buying, but they offer samples. We're big proponents of sampling, so go out there, check it out. If you like that sort of really safe kind of mass appealing sweet, not quite spicy, but very smooth fragrance. If you're looking for something like that we love to wreak, it would gladly replace line and weed alone in my collection if we kept bottles. But we do not keep bottles, we give them away to our patrons.

Ryan:

Yeah. So, Luke, you're going to be enjoying this. Thank you for being a patron. And that is our one night stand review of to wreak. Let's get into this what may be an overhyped play on words propaganda infused fragrance. The licks are by YSL.

Myke:

You know, and as we open this, maybe we should go ahead and bring in our resident historian, chris Fragmental, to enlighten us on the origins of elixirs and how they came to be in fragrances.

Ryan:

God I was so close to opening that fucking fragrance.

Myke:

You can do this while Chris is talking. Come on, Chris, get in here.

Chris (Frag-Mental):

The term elixir has been around since the 13th century. According to the online etymology dictionary, it is a medieval Latin word which means a liquid believed by alchemists to transform metals into gold and or to cure diseases and prolonged life. The word is also believed to derive from the Arabic elixir, which means a powder for drying wounds. Later, in medical use, elixir referred to a tincture with more than one base or a strong tonic used as an alternative medicine for healing certain ailments. Often, elixir can be used to describe a potion or tonic that has magical healing properties. It seems the use of the term elixir has become somewhat fast and loose in modern language, especially over the last few years, by linking it with fragrances. Finally to play into this magical potion connection, in the hope that any fragrance bearing the name elixir might have some sort of magical, mysterious, aphrodisiac effect stimulating sexual desire in anyone who smells it.

Myke:

So, ryan, do you think this fragrance Y-lixir is going to be an aphrodisiac of sorts for us, god, I'm hoping.

Ryan:

I mean, I do know the Y-EDP is really good, it's really good.

Myke:

So it kind of turns your crank a little bit. Yeah, I guess the crank going it puts that key in the ignition.

Ryan:

Oh, don't do. Do not quote that. Do not quote R Kelly. I'm about to. Yeah, get us canceled. Oh God, sorry guys, I didn't want to damage the box. It's maybe going back. Mike's looking at me. I'm like I'm a fucking idiot. Wow, bottle Looks good. Let me see.

Myke:

Let me hold this thing. Oh, they're like Ryan. There's a lot of fingerprints all over this bottle and it appears that you've pulled a 10 mil decant out of this. I don't think we can take this back, yeah.

Ryan:

I like it. Sharp, blue kind of, I guess dark glass, with like a matte black kind of like where the East in the run is kept. It's on there. Good, I guess. Not magnetic, I kind of like magnetic. Yeah, I do too. All right, we about to be ready. Yes, give me a tester strip. There you go pal. Now, before this goes on, we smelled one million elixir. It was not bad, it wasn't mind blowing. And we smelled Dior savagelixir, which absolutely is nuts. And we smelled Lamala elixir, which was not bad either. It wasn't crazy to me. But man, out of all those so far, dior savagelixir if I think about this name, that's the king of the hill. Right now it's on top.

Myke:

Yeah, just search Fragmental Elixirs and you'll be able to see that full video that we pulled that from. We pirated that. We'll put a link in the description, Just click it. Okay, but he goes on to say that if you go back and actually listen to some of our episodes, we had unrightfully thought that elixir was a form of a concentration. It's not. No, it's not. We thought it was EDCs or the Colognes, then EDTs, EDPs, Parfums, then elixirs is what I used to think, but I was so wrong. It's only a Parfum, this is only a Parfum. But then what do you do with the extremes and the intensives? And you know it just goes on and on and on. They're trying to drop our panties.

Ryan:

Well, I'm hoping this does you ready to do it. I'm ready. Hmm, interesting, it's both familiar, mm-hmm, it is kind of loud, kind of safe.

Myke:

Yeah, it is loud. It's loud and kind of familiar. I'm not even putting it up to my nose and it feels like I'm smelling a bubble bath.

Ryan:

Hmm, that is a good representation.

Myke:

Yes, I actually take quite a few bubble baths, oh okay, late at night, I don't want to relax. Put a little bit of salt in the bath. You know the bath salt that you can use. That like tenderizes your muscles.

Ryan:

No, but I guess yeah, isn't it called like Epsom salt or something?

Myke:

Epsom salt, yeah, yeah yeah, put that in there. It's like I'm brining myself. Oh, was that Dr Teal or something?

Ryan:

like that yeah, yeah, okay, there's one of those.

Myke:

So I'll pour that in there and then I'll hit it with that bubble bath. So you know, if somebody walks in I'm not completely nude in the bath, because that's vulnerable place to be, I don't swim very well.

Ryan:

You're probably like that guy on Robin Hood Mid and Tights when he falls into the puddle. You're like, I'm like you're drowning. Yeah, probably so, yee-gah Hi, what do you think?

Myke:

It smells good, guys, it does smell good. It smells generic yeah, like as generic, you know, back to backing this with like Tariq, which is a very safe, mass, appealing fragrance that doesn't smell generic. It's kind of hard then to go to this one that is attempting to do the same thing but it has no personality. Yeah, it's really weird.

Ryan:

It's not bad. It's not a bad smell, but I do feel like I've smelled it before, does it?

Myke:

smell new. Yeah, it kind of smells like YSLY plus like just a soap smell yeah and somehow kind of dumbed down a little bit from YSLY. So it's almost got like this. For you guys who haven't smelled YEDP or EDT, it's almost like this sweet fruitiness, like in the very background, and then a bunch of just soapiness, just clean masculine soap. Yeah.

Ryan:

I? I do not know about this fragrance. This is a little too safe. I'll get into the price and train here in a minute.

Myke:

I mean, I got to be real with you, ryan. I'll save it. I'll save it. Save it for what? I'll save it for the end of the episode, when we talk about skipping it, sampling it or buying it, and whether or not it's going out to a Patreon. Okay, we'll definitely find that out later and I just want to talk about it now, but I won't.

Ryan:

God, it is disappointing. It doesn't smell bad, though, don't get it wrong. It's a great smell. Actually, it's a great smell, but it's also Look, I got to jump into the price and trim so I can just talk for a minute. Okay, let's do it. Trent, she's fucking dead, guys, really. Yeah, it's brand new though, isn't it? It's dead, wow.

Ryan:

In fact, I looked at Dior Sauvage Elixir and they're not the first people to do Elixir, by the way, just so you know, roger Parfums does a poor film, elixir. It's kind of like a really well-balanced Chanel type fragrance that came out before Dior Sauvage, elixir, sure, and there's like a slew of other people that have come out with Elixir. But if we just think about here's your name plus Elixir Dior Sauvage is the king of this realm right now. That fragrance is fucking nuclear. It's different from all the other parts of Sauvage. That thing is a ticking time bomb on its trend. It is just it's red lining, and it has been since it came out. This one literally hyped the day it of. Since then it's at the very bottom. It makes sense.

Myke:

Sauvage Elixir gave us something completely different. Even us who really had a hard time buying into Sauvage, since I have bought a bottle or I have rarely spray it, by the way, super loud. Look, if you were going to beat, that's just the EDT. If you're going to beat the EDT and making a Elixir of Sauvage, like, how loud does it have to be? And let me tell you, they did it. It's insane. It's the loudest fragrance I've probably ever smelled in my entire life. I can concur.

Ryan:

It is seriously that loud guys. And I love Beast Mode Fragments, that one, it hits all the check marks. It's ridiculous.

Myke:

I one time sprayed my comforter with one spray of it Because I was like I just want to come in, I want the bedroom to smell great. Clean Sauvage Elixir has a little spiciness to it. Yeah, one spray. I literally could not sleep with that comforter. It was too loud and I just can't imagine wearing that out. I mean, it is so loud especially for me. I'm a little bit more of a pansy when it comes to like loud fragrances. You just go loud and proud with them.

Ryan:

Yeah, and this will follow to what I'm saying too they're both priced the same. They're both $180 for two ounces. So after taxes this bad boy was $195. It's not a lot. And for it to not be what, even your Sauvage Elixir is kind of disappointing.

Myke:

At that price tag that is, that's entering niche for sure. Oh yeah, you can go on to Discounters right now and get Layton by Parfum de Marli for less than that, and that is a 125 mil bottle. Yeah, and this is 75, right 75.

Ryan:

So why is so? Why and Versace, dillon Blue have kind of similar fragrances in a way. I'll go with that. What I was going to say is you can literally go on something like our fragrances. We're not sponsored by them, they don't even know we fucking exist, but you can get. They should have. We've called and sent a few emails. Yeah, they ignore us. They've got a 3.4 ounce bottle of Dillon Blue a fucking mini.34 ounce thing, a 5 ounce shower gel and a fucking fanny pack bundle for $57.

Myke:

Sorry to the UK listeners who had to hear Ryan say that word. I was that bad. That in the UK is equivalent to our P word.

Ryan:

You can bleep this out to like pfft, yeah, really yeah, fanny pack.

Myke:

Just fanny oh fanny.

Ryan:

Yeah, that means like ass, right, not in the UK. What the hell, man, I've got some weird rules over there, dude, From what I've heard.

Myke:

Look, I've never been over to the.

Ryan:

UK. Like is it? Like you can't say that, like you can't say without like really offending, somebody.

Myke:

I don't know that you offend them, but some people are kind of like ugh when you say that man they say cun all the time though.

Ryan:

Yeah, but yeah, it's different Kind of. That's a great word. By the way, a lot of people hate it. It's great, and they love twat as well. Yeah, twat. I feel like that one's pretty wild. Yeah, whatever.

Myke:

We won't go for that. But don't say, fanny, yeah.

Ryan:

But I feel like this is in the same vein of Versace, dillon, blue or Y by YSL, and for that price point, god damn, you could buy three bundles of this, have 300 ML, three five ounce shower gels and this thing is You're like running QVC, right now for a break.

Myke:

I'm really not Look for three easy payments of $57.98. This thing.

Ryan:

It smells great, though. It smells good, yeah, but it's not reinventing this line, it's not crazy. Obnoxiously loud, light, dior, savage, elixir, and at that point I feel like it kind of loses some marks. Right For sure it's louder. Oh my god, the hand sounds awful.

Myke:

I mean I think it's just overbearing, but it's that clean kind of overbearingness. I don't know if it hey, pull up the notes really quick. We did have Chris. I wish we could have Steve read the notes because, again, you guys know he is the note expert.

Ryan:

The note. You want to know the notes. There's only a couple. Yeah, Top notes, lavender, middle notes, geranium, base notes, oud and frankincense. Do you get oud?

Myke:

on this. I probably couldn't pick oud out if it slapped me in the face, but I thought this was going to have that strong Ambroxan sort of note. That is with the original Savage. So I feel like that is what's overpowering me and the reason why I can't wear regular Savage because it's so loud, that soapy like bite, that cloud that follows you. I'm getting this on the skin. Normally when we do an episode, I'm sniffing this thing every 10, 15 seconds. I've probably sniffed it three times this whole episode One because I can smell it, it's loud but it's not doing anything. That just slaps my fanny Damn.

Ryan:

Dominique Ropianzle, the one that did this fragrance. Sorry, DR.

Myke:

I'm just. You know, a couple idiots in Texas are just trashing you up and down for Wow, oh he did, yeah he did why?

Ryan:

Lonnie DeLome right, he did the Y oud up our phone Great one, by the way. I don't know what people's obsession with the money code is. I do not like the money code. I don't know why people love it.

Myke:

I hope you haven't slurped the right one yet. Damn Portrait of a lady that's coming up this season.

Ryan:

Yeah, we're wanting to smell that it's not bad. I can't we're going to sound like we are Okay, it doesn't smell bad. It smells really really good, honestly Other than my skin for a second there but it's just too generic for that price point.

Myke:

I know we're going into who's wearing it and I know who's wearing it. Fuck it, let's just get to it. It's the guy who walks in that's been wearing like the savages and stuff or wearing YEDP, and they go for the money. This is the loudest nuclear bomb you could get your hands on. Everyone's going to smell you walking down the hall and it's safe, and I think they smell it in the store and they pay full retail for it, which was what? Again, after taxes, $195. Good God, yeah, but I really think that's where it lies. Everybody who is just they need to smell great for work, they work in sales, they work in an office. They need something that's just going to be loud and proud, smell good but not offensive and definitely don't be original in any way. So they get this and for the money, they feel like they did a good job we need to come up with a name we can use for future episodes.

Ryan:

But, you know, like generic Greg or something, you know, I just feel like a fragrance like this. God forgive me, guys if you fit this, but it's pretty basic, right? Yeah, I'm not going to lie, though. When I'm fanning this tester strip, it's pretty, but I feel like this is a little bit just why. Or YEDP might as well get those and that'll. You'll be with this. You'll know what this smells like. You'll get compliments.

Myke:

Absolutely, it's just smell good. Why are we so upset? It smells good, it's loud, because you can get this.

Ryan:

I feel like you can get close to this with much cheaper. I don't know, the price is the stickler. Well, the price is a stickler. And then the fact that it's really not inventive to me no disrespect to any perfumer out there. I mean, this is technically a work of art compared to anything that I could fucking ever imagine. Yeah, but it's uh.

Myke:

yeah, I just feel like if you smelled YEDP, you've smelled this and this is like a mixture of take these you know the really loud cloudiness of Savage and add it to YEDP and that's what you've got.

Ryan:

Yeah, I kind of understand that.

Myke:

Don't spray it anymore. What are you doing?

Ryan:

I wanted to smell the opening again. What are you doing? Wow, sorry, okay.

Myke:

Oh, my little lungs.

Ryan:

By the way, this doesn't have to stay on the air, but some real got, you know, pushed my way today and it's an older lady like, I guess, a bus driver, and she's just like losing it because some kid sprayed some shit.

Myke:

Oh, no, I'm just going to play it. Okay, I'm going to spray something on the bus. Yeah, like a fragrance. What if?

Ryan:

it's a white lixer God it may be, and some little kid's about to get their ass kicked or something let's see here, lay lixer.

Myke:

I hate the name Lee lixer. This is like the bus driver from South Park. Might as well be All right, pull it up for us, todd, god damn it. How much more do you expect me?

Ryan:

to f**k you. Give me the perky. No, no, I didn't. I didn't do anything Like I know. I didn't Like it's freaking smelling. I didn't do anything. I didn't spray anything. I'm sick of you. I'm sick of all of this s**t. I'm done with that. I'm going to start kicking some s**t, serious ass. Good lord, did you hear me? Yes, my foot's going to be so far up your goddamn ass. You're a dangle on your goddamn nose. I'm done with you. Dead phone. I'm done with you. I'm done with you. I'm done with you. I'm done with you. I'm done with you. I'm done with you. Dead phone In your bag.

Myke:

God, is that from when? Like we were kids?

Ryan:

Oh, no, dude.

Myke:

That's like how, dude, you can't talk like that now, but when we were kids, our bus drivers talk like that all the time. Apparently, they sprayed a fragrance.

Ryan:

She's like ah, ah, ah ah, f**k Jesus, Wow man. She's going to put her foot so far up their goddamn ass, going to dangle out their goddamn nose. She's reached her breaking point, yeah dude.

Myke:

Yeah, this is let's get it, skip it, sample it or buy it. What are you going to do again, ryan?

Ryan:

Well, of course I did buy it. I feel like, uh, you think we're going to pull my pants down on this?

Myke:

one. I've honestly wanted to say all episode. I feel like you should just return this sh**.

Ryan:

God, I, I hate that for anybody on the Patreon, if you're like God. I was really wanting to get a free bottle or something like that, but it's like I'd rather we've done it before. I'd rather just take back and get something better than those smells good, yeah, I mean, yeah, we have done that before. Summer vibes by Dolce and Gabbana Yep God, great looking bottle, sh** fragrance. That really did get me f**ked.

Myke:

It is loud, guys I mean, but at that price tag, really, because that's cold hard cash we're talking. That's the Cologne podcast money that's gone out. Well, it's Ryan's, but if we decided to keep it, I'd have to dip into our account reimburse him, and I just hate doing that. I hate doing that. So I feel like for the money. If we were actually going to drop that money on a fragrance, we could get a badass niche fragrance from a discounter and give it to a Patreon.

Ryan:

Absolutely, man this. I could name 20 fragrances better than this man that are cheaper, way cheaper. Yeah, it's a skip. I don't even know if I tell somebody to sample this.

Myke:

You know what? We've already done an episode on Greenlee. But our friend Steve, every man fragrances. He's been recently looking into a specific like I think it's a perfume parlor clone of Greenlee. He's been talking about it. That kind of got me piqued again. I've got like three quarters of a bottle left. I started wearing it again and you were talking about how loud. It is Super loud and it's kind of fresh and fruity green, Got a little bit of bite of like green apple in it. It's sharp, it's good, it's nice, citrus, clean smelling. I mean even a fragrance like that. Hey, pull that up there, Todd, let's see how much that would cost.

Ryan:

It's sold out but it does come in stock. $159 for four ounces on our fragrances. When they do have it's out of stock right now, but when it isn't stock I probably, if I were to guess, you'd probably find it for 170 somewhere like on fragrance net or something like that.

Myke:

Yeah, way more juice. Or you could get a 75 mil bottle, same size as this, for probably under a hundred bucks 119.

Ryan:

Might as well just bump up and get that 150, whatever.

Myke:

Yeah, for sure. I'm just saying at that price. And if we're actually spending the money and some very generous company isn't sending us a free bottle for us to spray and then give it to a badger, If we're actually spending the money which is, you know, it's hard to come by guys I can't imagine, just because it's a new release, spending it on this, keeping it and sending it off to somebody.

Ryan:

God, the only way I could see somebody wanting this is if they really like safe office fragrance. I guess, to add some little cherry on top of this shit, sunday is it is probably one of the loudest, clean, safe work for this. As I've smelled and I get this vibe just by smelling it I feel like it probably will last a good while, and if you're just wanting that, maybe it is a win for you, but it is too safe for me.

Myke:

I just feel like even why EDP is probably a better route to go than this for the prize.

Ryan:

I'm just I look I'm just trying to find something I know. Oh God damn it.

Myke:

I saw this coming, by the way. I did too, man, I did too. Ah, look, there are going to be the small but loud minority of people that are going to call us niche snobs for this episode. I'm not a niche shop snob.

Ryan:

The majority of the shit I wear is not niche, so far.

Myke:

I think it's. By the way, me and Steve, we're best friends. We talk every day yeah, more than he talks to me. Sometimes I just sit down in the corner and cry and text him how I just keep failing on my diet and he's just like come on, bud, you got to do this. You can do this. Okay, do it for yourself. We were talking about how we need to do another like five for life or our top 10 fragrances, since you know, it's been a lot of water under the bridge since the last time we did that episode. There's been fragrances and he had mentioned Lunar Russocarbon he felt like would be in my tops, and then also the new Insidious Aventus clone. And I would honestly say, by the way, as much as I've worn Aventus, I've gone through two bottles of it now yeah, plus decants, like 30 mil decants. I would still say I over buying real Aventus, I would buy Insidious and I think Insidious would beat Aventus in being one of my top fragrances.

Ryan:

I agree with that. It is shockingly good and I'm actually pissed that we're giving our two balls away to big Clacker, ben and Sudama. I know.

Myke:

But Dan did say at some point before we die we'll each get 100 or more bottles. And I know we said earlier in the episode that we're bottle collectors, we're enthusiasts, so we don't keep bottles, we give them. We're keeping those bottles. I'm sorry. In fact this is how much I enjoyed. I actually wrote Steve to ask if he wanted to sell me his bottle of Insidious and he said why are you giving it away? I said because that's the type of guy I am.
