Aramis: 240ml vs 60ml

Aramis is dead, long live Aramis! After hearing that Estée Lauder discontinued Aramis Eau de Toilette, I got a second bottle of the juice due to rumors of the 60ml being an older formula. No beating around the bush: is there a difference between the 240ml and the 60ml bottles? Not really – they’re only slightly different. Overall, the 60ml feels more peppery-floral than the 240ml, while the 240ml feels more spicy-bergamot than the 60ml. The 240ml had better longevity, but the difference was not really significant. The differences might only be a trick of my mind (or maybe an age difference between the two bottles?).

I bought both bottles on Easycosmetic. The 240ml was produced in 2023, and the 60ml in 2021. I read that a reformulation occurred in 2019, so both my bottles are from after that. The bottles don't have exactly the same label, atomizer, or screen-printed text – see the pictures below. The juice in the 60ml bottle seems to be a lighter color, but that might be due to the size and volume of the container, rather than a real difference.

TL;DR: There are no significant differences, so I advise buying the 240ml bottle since the juice is overspray-friendly. Just make sure you have Aramis on your shelf – that’s all that matters.
