More about Clinique Aromatics Elixir
Aromatics Elixir by Clinique is a 1971 chypre floral eau de parfum for women, created by perfumer Bernard Chant. Chamomile, aldehydes, clary sage, coriander, geranium, lemon verbena, Brazilian rosewood and bergamot open it herbal and bright. Carnation, rose, ylang-ylang, orris root, jasmine, tuberose and orange blossom form a rich floral heart. Oakmoss, patchouli, incense, vetiver, sandalwood and musk leave a deep, mossy base. Aromatic and woody, Clinique Aromatics Elixir is at its best in fall and winter, by day or night.
