by Elizabeth Taylor
Elizabeth Taylor's Passion is a powerful, complex scent that commands attention. It opens with a bold, soapy burst of aldehydes, artemisia, and spiced florals, intensified by a dense, animalic core of civet, incense, and leather. Over time, the fragrance deepens into a warm, sweetly intoxicating blend of sandalwood, honeyed musk, vanilla, and dry woods, creating a rich, sensual base. It carries an unusual, memorable presence—bold and theatrical, suitable only for those who embrace strong, vintage-inspired fragrances with unapologetic character. While less virulent in newer formulations, the scent remains deeply impactful. Its impressive longevity and sillage make it ideal for evening wear in colder months, though its intensity requires cautious application. The fragrance is not for the faint-hearted or those seeking soft, sweet, or modern perfumes.
