Light Green

Currently, I prefer light fragrances during the day, floral scents that don't have a strong performance for those around me. However, I can still perceive them distinctly myself, and they are not too complicated or demanding. And that's why I "discovered" "Aromatics In White" once again.
I also read my previously deleted comment and realized that my relationship with "Aromatics In White" is still the same as it was at the beginning of our acquaintance. I'm glad to have it.
"Aromatics In White" is a charming, elegant light green fragrance. It starts off lightly, almost sparkling with its flirtatious pepperiness, and the rose is already noticeable as it begins to bloom. At the same time, I am enchanted by the cistus, which to me always smells more or less like lemon balm. In "Aromatics In White," cistus is only lightly hinted at. It brings a delicate touch of sweetness right in the top note. From this, a distinctly elegant rose emerges without any citrus accompaniment and without narcotic seduction. Instead, elegant orange and other light floral notes are intricately woven together in the heart note. I cannot identify them individually. The cool, extremely beautiful rose remains the protagonist. "Aromatics In White" also develops a slightly powdery quality. This gives the fragrance consistency and prevents it from being transparent.
This progression lasts only a short time; essentially, "Aromatics In White" settles within a few minutes.
I particularly like the base in "Aromatics In White," which initially seems almost non-existent. Patchouli, benzoin, and musk, which is already perceptible beforehand, form a unit and thus a gentle antagonist that can be sensed in the background. This base exudes a slightly balsamic resinous quality. For the patchouli note, they have really chosen only the hint of a freshly dried light patchouli flower. Thus, "Aromatics In White" connects with its charming, extremely elegant, and yet sensual sweetness to the cistus from the top note.
To be precise, "Aromatics In White" sequentially incorporates all the ingredients in a short time without losing them again.
"Aromatics In White" is a successful, subtle floral fragrance. This means that any woman is always appropriately perfumed.
Provided, of course, that she likes floral scents, especially roses.
As for the simple bottle in opaque white glass, I like the slender design and particularly the tactile feel.

I really liked the scent itself, but there was a plastic note that bothered me. After a while, it felt like a layer over the fragrance, like nail polish remover or some kind of solvent.

I sprayed the scent a few months ago at the department store and then met a friend for breakfast. She ended up buying it later. I remember it very positively and need to test it again. You reminded me of it again ;)

I bought it yesterday (for the second time) and wanted to compare my impressions with the other comments - I see your lovely comment here first. There are indeed a few perfumes that we both like... even if you're usually not a fan of oakmoss... (but luckily, that's not in this one for you!)

A very fine scent *nods in agreement* - if only I knew where it’s buried in my fragrance collection...

This one didn't convince me much; I was hoping for more similarity to the old AE. And it's probably good for you that it's not similar to AE, I guess :o)

That sounds really nice. I don't know it at all. I really appreciate the famous Aromatics Elixir. The men's counterpart is Aramis 900, which was my first personal fragrance.
