The Brand
Clinique
Scendira carries 16 fragrances from Clinique, from about $20 to $112. People who discuss fragrance online talk most about Happy, Aromatics Elixir and Calyx, three perfumes that span 1971 to 2013 and lean fresh, herbal and citrus.
How the Clinique picks open and dry down
Clinique Happy (EDP, 1998) is bright citrus soda with soft white florals; orange, blood grapefruit, Indian mandarin and bergamot open, and mimosa, lily, magnolia, musk and amber follow.
Aromatics Elixir (EDT, 1971) reads as a fresh herbal bouquet with mossy sandalwood and incense, built on chamomile, aldehydes and clary sage over oakmoss, patchouli, incense and vetiver.
Fresh grapefruit and green leaves with florals is the idea of Calyx (EDP, 2013), which dries down to oakmoss, iris and sandalwood.
Clinique launched in New York in 1968. Compare this house with others on the brands page.
