 Aromaticity is a property of atoms and bonds in rings.
 An aromatic bond must be between aromatic atoms, but a bond between aromatic atoms does not need to be aromatic.

 For example the fusing bonds here are not considered to be aromatic by the RDKit:

+A special case, heteroatoms with radicals are not considered candidates for aromaticity:

 **Note:** For reasons of computation expediency, aromaticity perception is only done for fused-ring systems where all members are at most 24 atoms in size.
