Are you tired of endlessly running along the paths of life? Take a few drops of a healing elixir that restores strength and energy. The miraculous remedy you looking for is called Clinique Aromatics Elixir. This Italian Eau de Parfum is like a sculpture that stands tall on two massive columns: floral and woody. The beautiful decoration in form of fruity ribbons and incense sores as a leaf on the wind.
The top notes are represented by the accords of coriander, sage, bergamot, and rosewood. The sensual and feminine heart notes bear a combination of orange blossom, jasmine, carnation, and petals of a majestic red rose. The base notes are stable, unshakable, firmly holding the entire olfactory pyramid: incense, musk, and notes of noble sandalwood.
I didn't buy it here. The scent is quite weak, not powerful at all. It's supposed to have the fragrance of Clinique cosmetics... I don't sense any bitter herbs, chamomile, or wormwood. It doesn't provoke any strong reactions, I'll just wear it since I bought it once.
It was captivating and enchanting. I can't imagine how I didn't have it before. After the aldehydes, which give the initial sharpness, fade away, there remains a magical and bewitching trail, like nothing else, woven in my personal perception from rose, incense, herbs, and some unfathomable secret component that gives this perfume something that other fragrances lack! Despite having a wide variety of scents in my collection, I want to come back to it again and again...
Unique, bitter, not for everyday use, but it deeply captivates and refuses to let go))) I haven't come across any alternatives, and there probably aren't any. If you love the scent of wild and medicinal herbs from our region and want to smell different from everyone else - then it's worth a try!
If you don't really like strong chypre fragrances, it's better not to risk buying this or to purchase a smaller bottle instead of the 100ml one, like I did. These 100ml will probably last a lifetime, but I liked the price and I got tired of the 10ml and 45ml minis that I already have. The delivery from the EU only took a couple of days, as always, MakeUP is incredibly satisfying, thank you.
Aromatics Elixir bursts out of the bottle with a wild mixture of medicinal herbs: chamomile, sage, St. John's wort, and ground ivy. Chamomile dominates the scent, sometimes giving way to a solo performance by oakmoss and sweet frankincense. At first, the fragrance is strong, but then it softens with notes of ylang-ylang and a lovely orange blossom scent. Even in its powerful sillage, the chamomile with its woody-patchouli tone can still be heard.
It is a very beautiful chypre, but it can be a disaster for an untrained nose. However, I love this elixir. It is best to apply it only on the body and hair, as it leaves indelible stains on clothing. If you appreciate the works of Robert Piguet, Roger Dove, and Jean-Louis Scherrer, then this is your fragrance.
I received my perfume with the batch code A78 18 243. According to the information obtained from the batch code, it was produced in July 2018, making it 8 months and 14 days old. Considering the price, it is absolutely fantastic. Thank you to everyone.
Fantastic, magical perfume. Thank you, makeup, for the opportunity to acquire this elixir of good mood. It truly acts as an antidepressant for me!
I absolutely love them!!! I wear them anytime. They are incredibly long-lasting! The fragrance is luxurious and rich!
Ladies! Recently, while vacationing in Europe, I noticed that despite the summer heat, local women prefer chypre and oriental scents. I would classify these perfumes more as oriental. They are very noticeable, have a lingering fragrance, sound expensive, and give their wearer a sense of status. European women would wear them even in the summer, but our ladies would love them as evening or autumn-winter scents.
