Aramis is an American luxury fragrance brand, introduced by Estée Lauder in 1964. It was the first prestige men’s fragrance widely available in department stores, and is now sold in 120 countries. Aramis was created by perfumer Bernard Chant.
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.
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” that is "as much of a legend as the hero it was named after."
