Brand & Positioning
-
Verset Parfums is a UK-based brand crafted exclusively for pharmacies, offering budget-conscious alternatives to designer fragrances.
-
TotalBodyCare describes Elis as a sophisticated and masculine fragrance tailored for the modern man—blending freshness and depth in a refined way—and suggests it's inspired by Y by Yves Saint Laurent.
-
Meds4you echoes this by labeling it an “inspired by Y (Yves Saint Laurent)” scent, cementing its identity as a more affordable YSL-style fragrance.
Community Sentiment & Comparison
While there aren’t many direct reviews of Elis from users, Verset fragrances generally receive recognition as budget-friendly dupes that capture the essence of designer originals.
For example, users frequently praise other Verset clones (like D’Arte or Island) for being close enough in scent profile despite shorter longevity—a trend likely applicable here too.
