Aramis (fragrance)
Aramis is an American luxury fragrance brand, introduced by Estée Lauder in 1964.[1] It was the first prestige men’s fragrance widely available in department stores, and is now sold in 120 countries.[2] Aramis was created by perfumer Bernard Chant.[2]
The fragrance was introduced early into the UK market after prompting by pharmaceutical legend Erick H. Varty of Glaxo Industries.
It is classified as a leather chypre; its top notes are fresh/bitter herb combined with a body odor note from cumin, followed by gardenia, jasmine, amber and sandalwood.[3]
Top notes: Aldehydes; Myrrh; Artemisia; Thyme; Clover; Bergamot; Gardenia
Middle notes: Patchouli; Sage; Jasmine; Cardamom; Orris Root
Base: Leather; Oakmoss; Musk; Vetiver; Sandalwood; Amber; Coconut.
Perfumer and fragrance historian Roja Dove has called it "an incredibly refined and distinctive fragrance”[2] that is "as much of a legend as the hero it was named after."[4]
