Estée Lauder 1972 EDT
Aliage
by Bernard Chant , Francis Camail
Estée Lauder Aliage is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1972, created by Bernard Chant and Francis Camail. Aliage opens with Citrus and Jasmine, settles into a heart of Rose, Nutmeg, and Artemisia, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vetiver, and Oakmoss. Estée Lauder's Aliage carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.
Aliage is a classic for a reason. It's a divisive green chypre that screams 70s daring, perfect for those who crave something far from generic. Forget modern 'sporty' scents; this is for a roguish forest outlaw, but recent reformulations have caused quite a stink among its devoted fans.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Best Occasions
Its sharp, green character and a reputation for strong sillage make it a bold choice for the office, while its unique profile could be intriguing for a date. The 'sport' branding, although not in the modern sense, suits its fresh, active vibe, making it appropriate for casual wear or outdoor activities. However, its intensity might be too much for many formal events.
