Spicy, warm, woody, and lavender at its very core. Spicy Star Anise is the night to Aromatic Star Anise’s day in any masculine scent lover’s routine. It entrances your senses with a balanced blend of spicy and fiery notes at first sniff before evolving into an intense, hypermasculine, and resinous fragrance. Spicy Star Anise opens with an intense burst of pink pepper with pineapple, star anise, and cardamom. The scent then unfolds to reveal a lavender-forward heart supported by nutmeg and clove notes––a perfect recipe for aromatic bliss. Once settled on the skin, the fragrance’s dark side comes out to play with warm, earthy, and masculine notes of oakmoss, amber woods, cistus, vetiver, and patchouli. Enjoy midnight masculinity translated into a spritz.

- Evan J.I recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars10/30/25BEST COMPANY EVER
Haven’t gotten it yet, really don't have the money but I seriously I already love the Aromatic Star Anise regular — it smells so clean, warm, and comforting. I can only imagine how incredible the Elixir version must be, lasting longer and smelling even richer.
Dossier truly does such an amazing job — the quality, the scents, and the fact that they make luxury fragrances actually affordable is something I really appreciate. You can tell they care about making people feel good without having to spend hundreds.
If I ever got the chance to receive a bottle of the Aromatic Star Anise Elixir, I’d be beyond thankful. I wouldn’t take it for granted at all — it’d honestly mean so much to me. You guys are the best! 😊

- Amauri D.Verified ReviewerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars4/18/26Very similar to the inspired version.
I have the Dior Sauvage elixir and I bought this spicy star Anise from Dossier, they both smell about 98% similar and I’ve been wanting to buy it again but It’s always sold out, 5 stars

- JustinVerified BuyerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars3/5/26Best cologne I’ve gotten so far
I buy the name brand version of this for $200-300+ and they nailed it will this one. It’s spot on. I’ve bought one bottle from the site to try it and it’s been sold out ever since! Restock this!!
