900
Aromatics Elixir
Shared character
Both fragrances are built on a dense floral‑woody‑chypre foundation, featuring the same set of 15 shared notes and the four common accords of floral, woody, chypre and spicy. Neither lists a specific fragrance family beyond these accords.
How they differ
900 leans toward a bright, green‑citrus profile with lemon, lily of the valley, clove, bay and a distinct green accord, while Aromatics Elixir introduces a richer, smoky side with orange blossom, tuberose, ylang‑ylang, frankincense and a smoky accord. The two share a large core of floral‑woody‑chypre ingredients (jasmine, rose, bergamot, sandalwood, geranium, oakmoss, vetiver, amber, patchouli, coriander, civet, carnation, rosewood, orris root, chamomile) and the same four accords (floral, woody, chypre, spicy). Community scores differ modestly: 900 averages 6.83, Aromatics Elixir 7.30.
Who each suits
• 900: suited to wearers who favor fresh, green and citrus‑spiced compositions, appreciating the added brightness of lemon, lily of the valley and clove. • Aromatics Elixir: suited to wearers who enjoy deeper aromatic and smoky textures, drawn to the exotic florals of orange blossom, tuberose, ylang‑ylang and the resinous nuance of frankincense.
