Great Layton clone

I got a small sample of this with my order of 10 Years (which is terrific) and whilst Layton isn't my favourite fragrance this is very good and is probably the closest clone I've sampled compared to the original.

If you enjoy Layton this is the one I'd recommend and with how close to the OG and the performance it has I can only give it a 5 star rating

Hi Stewart, thank you so much for the fantastic 5-star review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed Versailles Elixir and found it such a close match to Layton. It’s great to know you also loved 10 Years! We truly appreciate your support and thoughtful feedback, it means a lot to us.
The samples are very time consuming to make up but they seem to be highly treasured by all.

Fizzy fresh apple

I got this as a sample with my full bottle purchase of Kill Devil and this is so lovely.

Never smelt the original this is based but this is definitely a scent I will certainly that I will be looking to get a full bottle of!

Hi Mark,
Thank you for the fantastic 5-star review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed Versailles Elixir and that the fresh apple notes stood out to you. It’s wonderful that the sample made such an impression—you have great taste! We can’t wait for you to add the full bottle to your collection.
Brian

Exactly like Layton

Nailed it with this. Smells exactly like PDM Layton. Highly recommend.

Hi James,
Thanks a bunch for leaving this review for Versailles Elixir.
It's a popular fragrance with our customers, I'm glad you like it.
Brian

Someone gets it!

There are plenty of houses that do a decent interpretation of Layton. Without exception, they are all missing the "pop" in the opening of the original. THIS is as close as anyone has ever made it! Easily the closest and I have a "Layton Nose"!

Hi Chris,
Thank you so much for leaving your review for Versailles Elixir. It's a year-round steady seller for us and those who buy it tend to rave about it.
I'm glad it's to your liking.
Brian

Luxurious scent

This is a lovely scent, with excellent projection. I initially selected it as part of a 15ml bundle set and liked it so much that I bought the bigger bottle. I'm happy to recommend it and get lots of comments when I wear it.

Hi SFS,
Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to review Versailes Elixir, you're right about the projection!
It's great to hear you get lots of favourable comments when you wear it.
