Aramis by Aramis Eau De Toilette For Men, 110ml

Product Information

Meanwhile, it appears to be more successful among older men who would enjoy wearing it. Consequently, this is a very mature fragrance that is best worn by men approaching or within their forties. It’s cousin Devin, on the other hand, gets a whirl quite often during the fall and early winter, along with Grey Flannel, Tabac, Lagerfeld Classic, Quorum and Milton Lloyd’s The Man Silver. (As for the last mentioned; it’s a dupe of Kouros, and smells closer to the vintage edition than the watered-down modern Kouros). With regards to its seasonality, this is certainly a fragrance that performs best during the cold months. Given that it features such a rich woody bouquet, it’s unlikely that it will be as appealing during summer. Chances are that this is a fragrance best reserved for the winter given its leather and amber accords.

ARAMIS is the kind of fragrance made for rough, hard and bold retrosexual man, wit a strong character and very conservative personality; I’ve got a 3/4 of a 240 ml Eau de toilette bottle of ARAMIS in my wardrobe and for my birthday my partner gave me another ARAMIS bottle of 110 ml (she knows I love this fragrance) The combination of citrus and green notes with the prominent mugwort gives the fragrance a somewhat rough start, but reveals its softer side in the heart note at the latest, when an iris brought to life by hedione awakens. Cumin adds body warmth and clary sage a hint of fresh sweat. Leather and moss become softer and more supple, which means that Aramis suddenly reveals a certain closeness to Cabochard. This relationship is certainly no coincidence, as the latter was also created five years earlier by Bernard Chant.

There are quite other fragrances that are already considered classics from their own youth such as Cool Water, Aramis life, Havana, Fahrenheit, Eternitiy for men and or Joop homme. Overall, Aramis is a heavy and oily celebration of leather and amber. Aromatic, citrus and floral notes all play roles in its blend but the true theme is its woody, resinous base. In addition, this is notably an evening fragrance. It’s not a fragrance that would accompany the daylight particularly well. Furthermore, it’s more of a romantic fragrance.

Overall, Aramis is very much a power frag by definition. Both the sillage and projection are overly strong, which are held in place by an enduring longevity. This is a fragrance that will happily last you throughout the day and perhaps even the night that follows. Anyway, this scent has caused me an incredible memory of past times and people, which I didn't think was possible.What makes Aramis particularly unique is that it’s a Chypre for men. Although this was once relatively commonplace, today it’s rather rare. A Chypre is often characterised by a bergamot head, and a heart composed of oak moss and labdanum. Also the strength of this Aramis cannot be compared with the current products, here four splashes are enough for the whole day.

Then you realize that you can and even have to wear such a fragrance, it sets you apart from the many cotton candy products that are called fragrances today. I can’t say anything else that hasn’t been said about ARAMIS cologne, that despite the time it remains one of the best and mos representatives fragrances for men as a true classic among classics; ARAMIS is one of my favorite fragrances that I never get tired of, I wear this colossal cologne in almost daily bases just alternating it with QUORUM and YATAGAN that I love equally; in the past, I wore a lot of fragrances without concerning or even thinking about what was the most representative fragrance for my personality and style, well I know now that these 3 fragrances just are what I was looking for; ARAMIS, YATAGAN, and QUORUM are the fragrances I have chosen to wear permanently for any season, date or time of the day.

Aramis’ Composition

Hence comes the animalic-sensual suede accord, which perfectly complements the spices and sinks together with them in a bed of moss.

Aramis is a tart, herbaceous, old-school leather chypre with plenty of oakmoss, for which you have to have a certain attitude so that the wearer wears the fragrance and not the other way around. In the top note of soapy aldehydes, bergamot and herbaceous notes, the mugwort emerges a little, gradually leaving more and more room for cloves and a little cardamom warmth. Oakmoss and leather are also present right from the start, but always take on different roles in the fragrance, a little like the little stones in a kaleidoscope, which come to the fore in different places and in different valences with every little movement, but are included in the overall picture throughout. Somehow we become more and more similar and synchronized in the completely wrong and naïve assumption how unique, different and sovereign each individual has become. He is miles away from the Habit Rouge, which also appeared at this time, because he cannot be classified as an Oriental. I used to find this kind of scent, these predecessors of the Armanis and Azzaros in the eighties, very simple and as I will never actually smell, because for me it was always too far away and too far from pleasant. Life as a toddler was of course completely carefree and one got many impressions and tastes which one believes to have forgotten. Closer than would be seemly, she walks up beside him and leads him to a secluded part of the store to the shelf of books on perfume.In the United States, it was the first advertised men's fragrance that was also offered in department stores (no longer just perfumeries). It is wonderful, a little sad and above all very sentimental to be able to revive one's own memories of long lost people through such fragrances. After 35 years being above “normal” interested in fragrances, my rather huge collection of juices consists of weirdos and mainstreams en large. So, of course, I reach for the tried and true ones over and over, leaving the odd crew gathering dust.
