The original 1964 Aramis is a landmark leather chypre and the fragrance credited with launching prestige men's cologne in American department stores. Created by Bernard Chant, its bitter-herbal opening over leather, oakmoss, and musk set the template his signature patchouli-chypre style would echo in later classics.
