An intriguing mix of burnt rubber and hairspray form the top notes.
Next come civet musk and violets.
Quickly moves to almonds, nuts, aldehydes and more civet.
Weirdest stuff I’ve ever worn and I think I’ll have a love/hate relationship with this one.

Unfortunately not a very good dupe of Aromatics Elixer. It’s similar, but has a heavy opening and an unpleasant drydown. Actually gave me a headache.

This easy, breezy fragrance is great to spritz during the day at work if I feel I need a boost. Layers well with my signature, Aromatics Elixir (Grasse is a little sweeter and soapier), which I apply after my morning shower. Grasse Experience is refreshing enough to put a spring in my step if I’m flagging at the office, but it’s also great to apply before a workout. I find it invigorates amd calms me during Pilates whilst its lovely sillage of scent wafts around me. For around 3 quid at my local chemist or a fiver on Amazon – you can’t go wrong! 🙂

I am not really a chypre girl in general, but this summer I found myself reaching for Grasse Experience when I fancied a subtle aromatic backdrop scent, even in warm weather. Despite the “atomic” burst coming out of the spray bottle the initial sharpness mellows down very quickly to a well balanced, sexy and classy scent cloud. Hard to imagine this would offend anyone if used in moderation yet bold enough and has way more balls than your typical office scent category. I have not tried layering but suspect this will be another ML winner in that category, too.

Worst perfume I ever smelled, burnt rubber, disgusting.

If you’re into chypre and you can stomach the first minute of the opening, give this one a go. I am not good at isolating ingredients but am almost certain there’s a bit of a musky tone to this one – more so than Aromatics. The farther it goes into the drydown, the more I like it. My dry skin sucks a fragrance dry in an hour if it’s a poor dupe. Milton Lloyd’s ones (for the most) do last rather well on my skin. Just wish the bottle wasn’t pressurised. I’m blown away by the flood of juice that comes from that tiny nozzle!

This fragrance is absolutely lovely, my Mum wears it and smells amazing. The price is excellent and you can enjoy it with no guilt. Try it ladies it’s lovely and so like Aromatics Elixir.

An excellent scent- doesn’t smell cheap! It’s a sensible grown up chypre that costs less than a bottle of wine. I love it. Very longlasting. If you like perfumes in the same vein as aromatics Elixir then you’ll love this too.

This is my “keep in the car, forgot to put perfume on, cheap as chips, go for it” scent. £4 free postage 100 mls from eBay. And it is a very very good facsimile of Aromatics. If I had never smelled the clinique original, I would be gobsmacked at the quality of this. Its lovely. I’d like to try other Milton Lloyd’s…do they have a Fendi substitute?
