Mellow woody notes of patchouli and vetiver are enlivened with a cool citrus twist of bergamot, grapefruit and lemon. This is punctuated in great interplay with the green resinous notes of cedar leaf and spicy juniper berry.

Lavender and fir balsam with a touch of bay are key to the character of the heart. Mossy notes then play a leading role as the fragrance evolves with amber, musk and a hint of leather in the base round off this timeless scent.

This Eau de Toilette is vegan.

A favourite of the Floris family since it was created in 1979 by the late Michael Bodenham, Elite is a fragrance to return to time and time again. Named after ‘Lotion Elite' – a Floris after shave cream which first featured in our catalogue in 1851. Elite was initially a slow burner in the Floris range and shows that patience in the art of perfume creation, really does pay off. Maintaining a few loyal followers, as the 1980s progressed, its admirers grew, both at home and across the continent, as exports to Europe increased. Elite has since gone on to become an icon among the Floris signature collection. It has found a second home among devotees across the world and particularly in Italy where the fragrance has gone from strength to strength and continues to maintain its popularity today, 40 years after it was launched.

"Elite is an expression of an elegant man, thoughtful and refined, with phlegmatic detachment: created in 1979, it has risen to the status of a masterpiece."

    Classic with an edge

    On first application I wasn't quite sure how I felt about it. But after letting it settle in for a few minutes I found that I really enjoy it and the way it evolves over the course of a few hours is really excellent. Very classic and masculine but with a bit of bohemian flair and interest that I think makes it stand out in a nice way. It also has this way of mellowing over time but staying present that I really enjoy, and it lasted that better part of a very active day.

    A Classic

    I just love Elite. Out of all the Floris range that I have, it is the one that I get asked about the most. It is beautifully floral, zesty, musky and warm. Definitely one for the men.

    Elite

    Very fresh smelling, like you've just stepped out of the shower. Light, not heavy and the smell lingers all day.
