Two new men are becoming faces of fragrances: Fendi wil... Go
With its ‘enigmatic name, with the allure of a cryptic message’, Armani Code is the feminine reflection of the men’s scent of the same name. A modern elixir, a sublimely arousing perfume, Armani Code ‘pays homage to women’s magnetism’. The fragrance reveals the luminous, sensual glow of orange blossom, in a bottle with a nocturnal silhouette wrapped in a lacey Oriental pattern.
A luminous opening built around the zest of two different oranges: a bitter orange from Africa and a sweet one from Italy. In the heart, a Tunisian orange-blossom absolute grants the fragrance its subtle, solar charm, surrounded by floral waves of Sambac jasmine. The sensual, addictive trail is an alliance of orange blossom, Madagascar vanilla and a drop of honey.
Eau de Parfum, 1, 1.7 and 2.5 fl. oz.
A bottle with delicate, slender lines whose colors shade from blue to black. An Oriental pattern is engraved onto the bottle, ‘like shadow puppets tattooed onto the glass’s skin’.
This stuff stinks. It has the pungency of a cheap toilet freshener. Passengers on the same bus with me recoiled with distaste. This is one of the perfumes that converts passers-by into perfume haters. Please, if you like this, don't wear it in public. Zero stars. More
