A very enjoyable review. Well done! Aramis was my first 'proper' fragrance in the late 1970s during my teenage years. My girlfriend of the time decided she'd had enough of my horrid cheapo fragrances (Denim, Hai Karate, Brut 33, etc) and so she upped my game considerably by purchasing a bottle of Aramis for my birthday. Thus began my lifelong love affair with perfume....

Hello Chap’s Guide. I enjoyed your review of Aramis very much. Aramis has been my signature fragrance since the mid 70s. I remember a female classmate in high school was the first to compliment my Aramis fragrance so from that moment on it has been special to me. I have evolved over the years to prefer Aramis during the cooler months as you mentioned. In the warmer months I prefer Tabac by Maurer & Wirtz, a much lighter fragrance. I have recently added the Tom Ford fragrance “Blanking” Fabulous” as my third fragrance. It is for very special occasions and in my opinion it is fabulous!! Thank you for your videos.

Just blind-bought this and sprayed it on myself. It is powerfully masculine. I would recommend two sprays of this at most to avoid overwhelming others. However I think this is a really nice and seductive smell. I still prefer Polo Green to fill the masculine throwback slot of my arsenal--it's fresher, just as masculine, and smells less like you're *trying* to smell masculine--but this would work in different contexts, especially dates and social gatherings, if you use it sparingly.

ARAMIS was found among Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s belongings - neatly packed in his overnight suitcase - on the day he was assassinated in April 1968. It was the quintessential mid-late sixties urbane masculine fragrance, and many celebrities of that time wore it, from MLK to Robert Kennedy, to the ‘Rat Pack’ (it was famously also Sammy Davis Jr’s signature fragrance, as well as Dean Martin’s and Peter Lawford’s - but Frank Sinatra reputedly detested it because it was so ubiquitous in Hollywood, Broadway, and the Las Vegas strip; he favoured lighter scents like 4711, Yardley’s English Lavender, and Puig’s Agua de Lavanda instead).

Didn't get any woodsy or leather notes in this either, especially given the fact, that after sprayed on wrist scent is gone in 25 minutes. Expected a lot more with supposedly a classic fragrance. To me it's very weak, and will never repurchase again. I own Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, Drakkar Noir, Hugo Boss Man, and Brut, to me all great fragrances that pack a serious punch.

I have some from 2020, lasts 4 - 6 hours for me. Everyone's skin chemistry differs slights, perhaps it doesn't work particularly well with your skin type?

Might be the case, yes. I have Aramis Tobacco Reserve too and that lasts quite a bit. Pity about the regular Aramis though - I really like the fragrance.

Same for me. I bought Aramis a couple of days ago at the perfumery, instead of ordering it only for half the price online, because I was scared of cheap copies. Back at home i was really suprised about the intensity and the duration of the scent - it actually does not last long. So i was also thinking about nose-blindness. I sprayed a sample of Tom Ford Ombre Leather (it's an edp) into the room, just to quick check the smell, but the scent actually last there for a day, really recognizable, *without getting me into any kind of nose-blindness*. After some research i found a few comments - just like this one - which criticized the durability of Aramis, althoug many people are praising the duration of the scent...

A mature sent for winter, Tobacco reserve is also nice, not as strong or lasting by comparison.
