Aramis

by Aramis

Where can I buy it!?
What's it like?...
Prepare yourself.  Aramis is a pungent patchouli, sandalwood, and citrus blend..  It starts out a heavy citrus, and just doesn't quit.
When to wear it...
For the man that loves it- Anytime, but please go light!
How it lasted on me...
Wow, the things I do for these reviews...  After forcing myself to try it on, Aramis lasted ALL day.  I must say, at the grocery store it cleared the aisles quite well!
The bottle...
The classic rectangular shape, with gold fragrance and a cylindrical gold cap.
Miscellaneous details...
Aramis has been aggressively marketing itself for over 30 years, and was the first "designer" fragrance for men in the U.S. It officially launched in 1963. There aren't many fragrances that can say they're still sold in a Dept. Store after that many years... Most are gone within five! Aramis gets its name from Aramis, Turkey. There is a root there that is believed to have aphrodisiac qualities, and of course Aramis included it in it's fragrance.
In my opinion...
Ugh, I hate it.  I respect the company's vigor and enthusiasm, but there's no way I will ever like this fragrance!
