ChypreWhat does Aramis 900 (Eau de Cologne) smell like?
It opens bright with bergamot, lemon and coriander, while green notes and rosewood pull it towards a dry, herbal side. The heart adds jasmine, rose, lily of the valley and geranium for a floral layer, and the base of vetiver, oakmoss and patchouli leaves a woody, earthy, faintly animal trail.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and the occasions are spread fairly evenly across evening, leisure, daily wear and business. Voters mostly call it masculine and classic. It has been discontinued; Animale Animale and Pierre Cardin Choc de Cardin have a close profile.
