A cult-classic scent defined by a complex blend of luxury notes, for an incomparable and intense fragrance. Allergy tested.
Clinique’s Aromatics Elixir™ Eau de Parfum is a cult-classic luxury perfume. Perfumers call it a chypre, meaning its unique blend of notes creates a predominantly woodsy, mossy scent. This long-lasting perfume combines more than 700 ingredients to create a confident, sensuous fragrance. Rich vetiver, lush oakmoss, and luxurious patchouli are balanced with the soft florally of ylang ylang and rose—a bold blend that stirs the senses and spirit in subtle, pleasing ways. A uniquely intense and non-conformist perfume that always makes a statement, Aromatics Elixir™ is designed for the true individual.

How to Use: Spray onto pulse points: wrists, neck, and chest. Key points like the nape of your neck, the insides of your wrists, and behind your knees generate more body heat, which helps activate the scent. To make the most of your scent, spritz it on after showering or moisturising.

Long time fan
Yes, I recommend this
I have been using this fragrance for about 50 years, and am delighted to say my grandchildren call it “nana’s perfume” which thankfully they do like and recognise even when they smell it on others. It makes me feel very together and the last thing which I put on when about to leave the house

My best smell!

Worn this for years, so many people have commented that it suits me and not to change it! So I don’t.

Disappointed formula has changed

Decided to revert back to an old fragrance I used to wear religiously- I am so disappointed this is nothing like the AE I wore a few years ago - it's like a completely different perfume - a poor imitation. So sad an iconic perfume has gone.

My mom has used this for years. We bought her some for Christmas. Having seen these reviews I asked her about it. She said it didn't seem to last. She's 89 but now having to find a new one. My sister in law and I had both switched but you have lost us too

Different fragrance

Soooooo disappointed that this has been changed. Have worn this perfume for years, always loved it and people used to ask me what it was. The new version has no resemblance to the original and barely has any aroma. Feel cheated out of my money. Surely you should have renamed it instead of passing it off as the same! Having seen similar comments it shows how many of your loyal customers feel duped and disappointed with your company. Cannot understand why you changed such a popular and beautiful perfume.

Why has AE been changed. It was the best but nolonger.

I have bought this perfume for over 30 years and thought my preferences had changed over recent years, buying the black and white versions. Tried the original AE at the airport yesterday. Initially smelt the same but scent was gone within the hour. My old AE lingered all day. Will not be buying again unless Clinique relaunch and confirm it is to original formulae. So sad- such an iconic perfume :(

I've opened a new bottle of aromatic elixir, and it seems it has a different smell. It's not quite as strong or fragrant. It also only lasts an hour is so. Has anything changed?? Such a shame. I thought this would always be my parfum.

I have used aromatics for years and loved it. What have you done to it? Just opened a huge 100ml bottle and it smells nothing like it did. It's like old ladies perfume and doesn't last an hour. What a waste of my hard earned money. Will not buy again and need to find a new perfume. This should have been communicated to the customer. I'm afraid you've made a huge mistake!

My comments are similar to the vast amount from all your other customers! I have used this fragrance for 35 years but it hasn't been the same for a long time now. I stopped for awhile but bought a bottle at the airport 2 weeks ago.... words fail me as despite all the previous complaints on this review site, the fragrance is still like a cheap imposter! I left the bottle in the hotel!

My aunt had been wearing this parfum since 20 years and I loved it. I can say it was her signature. I decided to buy and change my regular parfum, but literally disappointed. It is not absolutely the same and not lingering on skin and clothes. I regret spending that much money on it.

Smells unpleasant after wearing a while

Bought this as a treat for myself after traumatic time moving home. It smelt great on a friend but after an hour of application on myself it just smells revolting, I have tried quite a few times but end up washing it off. Now I am left with an expensive bottle of perfume I cant use and a bad memory of buying it when it should have been a happy one.

A new but not nice Aromatic Elixir
Originally posted on clinique.co.uk
No, I don't recommend this
I am so disappointed. What have you done with my Aromatics? I have been wearing it since 1979/80, when I worked for Clinique in Fenwicks at Brent Cross. It has been my signature perfume ever since. It just doesn't smell the same, it doesn't last very long on your skin or on your clothes. I'm devastated and need to find another fragrance. Several friends have asked by I don't wear it any more. What is happening.

Iv been using aromatics for 30 years. Round about 20 months ago, I purchased a bottle off this site. When it arrived it appeared to 'smell' different, it just does not linger like it used too. In the past there wasn't a day went by when someone didn't commented on the amazing smell of aromatics. I am gutted that the smell has changed significantly .

Not as good as my last one
No, I don't recommend this
My husband bought me this for one of my Christmas presents because he said that he can follow the scent to find me when I wander off from him. I put some on but it didn’t seem right and being visually impaired I can sense different smells quite well. Something has changed and I cannot tell what it is. My husband has started sneezing when I wear it as well. Has it changed or am I getting crazy. Thank you x
