Advantages: Long lasting, pleasant and pleasing. Disadvantages: Expensive for everyday use.
...looks like this anyway.
Clinique describe Aromatics as ‘Touching the senses and spirit in subtle, pleasing ways. Aromatics Elixir appeals to the individualist in every woman’. I personally find perfume hard to describe but I’ll give it a go. Ok, I sprayed my wrist, shut my eyes and inhaled. To me Aromatics conjures up images of elegance, sophistication and erotica all rolled into a smell if that makes sense. I think smells conjure ... ...to put Aromatics into one word, I’d say ‘Class’.
Now perfume doesn’t smell the same on everyone, I suppose we’ve all bought something at some time that smelt great on others only to find it totally different on ourselves. I’d certainly suggest you try before you buy. All the major stores will have samples and you should spray your wrists and under your ears. It’s tempting to go mad with free samples but ...

Advantages: smell gorgeous Disadvantages: a bit pricey
...the old whiffy stuff.
Clinique is a brand I've used since Adam were a lad, especially the skincare stuff, which is a bit pricey, but well worth the money.
I first used aromatics over 13 years ago, when my gran bought me it as a gift for my 18th birthday. My original thoughts when opening this carefully selected gift (my grans idea of being carefully selected is giving my mother 20 quid and saying see what you can get for that luvvie) was "oh god ... ...back, you could only purchase clinique products from dept stores like debenhams, house of fraser etc, but a few months back whilst shopping in my local savers I noticed whilst the shop assistant was ringing in my goods the perfume counter behind her had the familiar packaging of my much loved aromatics. I asked her how much and was amazed to find it at a knockdown price of Ģ27 for a 45ml bottle (usually Ģ37-40 in dept stores). So as you can imagine ...

Advantages: Lasts and lasts Disadvantages: Quite expensive
...the top of this opinion. Clinique don’t go in for gimmicks like brightly coloured or oddly shaped bottles. Their products are classy and the packaging reflects this.
Following on from the classy image is the fact that Clinique products are only available in certain stores. In Walsall the only place that is allowed to sell this brand is Debenhams. This presumably adds to the exclusiveness of Clinique, and so makes it appear to be worth more.
... ...get some free girt vouchers. Clinique also do offers where, if you spend a certain amount on their products you get free gifts. It would certainly be worth looking out for these offers and making the most of them to treat yourself, or to get someone else to treat you! ...

Advantages: Little goes a long way really nice fragrance Disadvantages: none
I have only just discovered this perfume and I love it. The fragrance is from Estee Lauder subsidary company Clinique.
Aromatics comes in a lemon coloured box and the bottle is glass as shown in the picture with a spray top. It retails between Ģ20--Ģ27 for a 25ml size and can be bought at most good department stores and chemists as well as on line from various perfume discount sites.
The fragrance has a rich woody dry character with light violet ... ...include
Rose de mai for toning properties
Sandalwood and camomile for cleansing
Orange blossom to relax muscles
White jasmine
Oakmoss and Patchouli
When first sprayed on it is quite strong and spicey but settles down to a subtle slightly flowery fresh smell which lasts on me until I wash it off which is good because normally perfumes don't last that long on my skin. I have had many compliments when wearing it from both men and women and from ...

Advantages: Beautiful Scent Disadvantages: Only sold in certain stores.
Cliniques Aromatics Elixir is to me how the perfect scent should smell. It is light and sweet, yet, subtley noticeable even hours after putting it on. I first came across it when a woman was wearing it at a wedding reception, and I had to know what it was and have bought it ever since. It is one of those perfumes that people who wear it will recognise instantly and those that don't will be asking you what it is. It is a sweet yet exotic scent.
It ...

Advantages: Long lasting smell Disadvantages: Very Few
...perfume is Aromatics Elixir by Clinique the American skin care company. I have been using this faithfully for many years now and I was surprised to find out recently that this perfume has been around since 1968. More than 30 years later this smell is still popular with many women. I tend to like perfumes with a strong fragrance and so I find this just right for me. It has a rich blend of floral and herby smells and the unique part of this perfume ...

Advantages: Long lasting beautiful smell Disadvantages: none
I first bought this perfume after splitting with a boyfriend some years ago. You know, new hairstyle new perfume new start! Well it was the perfect choice. This perfume can not be described as floral or fresh. It gives the feeling of serenity and calm. It is a long lasting strong fragrance but not "in your face." Just 2-3 squirts in the air, walk through the mist and you'll be wafting all day. I loved this perfume so much that I would never tell ... ...too. My friends always knew that I had been in a room or passed by because of the scent and men would always ask what the fantastic smell was. It isn't exactly young perfume more for the thirty somethings. I could sniff the bottle all day with a happy smile on my face. ...

I like Clinique in general, plus am a shopaholic. So Iīve got LOTS of makeup + scents at home! Aromatics elixir is sweet, strong, seductive. You donīt have to put very much on. If you didnīt know, you could almost imagine it was after-shave! Thereīs something intriguing in this scent. Similarly to Happy, Iīm not quite sure I "like" it, but I must have it! Wonder what they put in it...Joke! It is kind of more-ish, though. Itīs colour is dark amber, ...

...became good friends with the Clinique representative at the time, when she 'skin typed' me and advised me of the Clinique products to use to improve my skin condition. I bought two products during the Clinique Bonus Time event where I received a free sample of Aromatics Elixir. From then it became my favourite perfume, because it is the only perfume that I smelled somebody else wearing that smelled the same on me. Normally if I try to wear a perfume ... ...smells the same on me, or lasts as long. The scent is quite strong when I first spray it on, but it becomes subtle but still adorable after a few hours and it lasts all day. So although it is expensive, it does go that bit further as it does not need re-applying later on. It leaves a dramatic, pleasant scent behind. An elegant perfume - it is uplifting if I need a confidence boost because I am guaranteed to receive compliments when wearing it. ...

I think clinique should stop making this perfume and put us people who dont like it out of our misery.
The bottle is even boring and the price is so low, i think that why old people buy it because they are getting a big brand name for a really low price. ...
