One of the year's most ambitious launches arrives at the Essensio portfolio: Velixir Parfums is now available, featuring a collection of 14 original fragrances . Founded in Indonesia in 2025, Velixir was born from a vision to redefine accessible luxury in modern perfumery. Rooted in the belief that perfumery is defined by mastery and quality, the brand creates olfactory experiences that bring Indonesian perfumery to the global stage.
The 14 fragrances—ranging from Aphrodite to Demeter, and including figures such as Athena, Ares, Poseidon, and Icarus—will be available as early as the beginning of October , in both Pocket formats (1ml, 3ml, and 5ml) and full-size 100ml bottles . Now is the perfect time to secure yours before the official launch.
Velixir Aphrodite: Beauty Never Needed to Ask for Permission
Notes: Bergamot, Lychee, Ginger (top) · Peony, Rose, Cocoa (heart) · Patchouli (base)
Aphrodite opens with an almost immediate allure: bergamot brings citrusy brightness, lychee adds a juicy, translucent touch, and ginger introduces a subtle spiciness that prevents the opening from becoming too sweet. It is a natural and irresistible introduction, free from artifice.
At the heart, peony and rose create a dense, lush floral accord, while cocoa adds an unexpected touch of indulgence—a rare meeting of the delicate and the sensual that gives the fragrance its name. The base settles into pure, deep, earthy patchouli, anchoring the preceding sweetness and lending the composition a more serious finish than the opening suggested.
The community describes it as being similar to Louis Vuitton Attrape-Rêves—a fruity-floral fragrance acclaimed for its contemporary elegance—with the added advantages of a "Pocket" size for testing before committing and a much more affordable price.
Who it’s for: Women looking for a sophisticated fruity-floral fragrance—more sensual than sweet—suitable for any time of day.
