Aramis Devin is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1977, created by Bernard Chant. Devin opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Lavender, settles into a heart of Caraway, Pine, Jasmine, and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Amber, and Cedar. Aramis's Devin carries a Statement verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

Divisive and unapologetically vintage, Aramis Devin is either a 'masterpiece from the 70s' or 'stinky' and 'awful' as per the community consensus. It's a raw, animalic green chypre that demands a bold wearer, and certainly isn't for those who prefer modern, sweet fragrances. Try before you buy.

Best Occasions

Best For:

Also Works:
Date

Devin's strong, old-school profile and often intense projection make it less suitable for office or sport. It shines in casual settings where its unique masculine character can be appreciated, and can be intriguing for a date or a statement in formal events, provided it's applied sparingly.

About

Devin opens with a potent blast of aldehydic freshness, intertwined with sharp galbanum and bright citrus. The heart quickly emerges with a resinous pine, warm cinnamon, and a delicate jasmine. The dry down is deep, complex, and earthy, dominated by oakmoss and leather, rounded out with amber and musk. It's a stark, green, and unapologetically masculine scent.
