Giorgio Armani Code for Men EDP Refill 150ml

This is an excellent middle-eastern leaning designer fragrance. Dark, sweet, boozy, vanillic gourmand. Much in the same direction as Noir Extreme, Narcotic Delight, and Bleu Electrique. A bit darker than those, but same date night type vibe. I don’t find it redundant or boring, but I can definitely understand someone else feeling that way. I just love this kind of scent profile, honestly. Still got a terch of that synthetic funk in the base, mainly when you go in closer, but overall it’s on the higher end of the designer spectrum in quality of notes/accords.This is obviously intended for the upcoming season but it works in the heat and can bring nice situational contrasts much in the same way you can with a freshie in the fall.

A modern, sweet and spicy scent that lasts many hours!

Spicy and sweet, Armani Code Eau De Parfum is an ideal scent, especially appealing to young adults. For the older generations, Armani Code is meant to impress! It's reminiscent to another favorite, Sauvage in both quality and personality.Right from the first spray, immediately apparent are the vanilla/tonka notes. An aroma of citrus and nutmeg with a touch of powder is noticeable to me as well. This scent would be perfect for nighttime wear or a night at the club, but it would also go easy with a button-up or nice collared shirt and slacks. I would avoid wearing this with my everyday attire, as it doesn't quite suit that format, in my opinion. This is a powerful addition to my collection and worth the purchase in every way.This scent has nice, powerful yet ... MoreSpicy and sweet, Armani Code Eau De Parfum is an ideal scent, especially appealing to young adults.

It lasts a good 8 hours and, truthfully, will linger for another few. A little goes a long way!This is recommended for that cologne connoisseur and would make a perfect gift!The lid isn't magnetic but snaps on nice and snug. The bottle is thick and heavy and sprays nice and even, as with all Armani products.Save Armani Code for a nice night out or special event, where it will have a chance to shine!

A must have!

Bought this as a gift for a significant other and let me tell you they really loved this!!! The cologne has hints of citrus which gives it a very fresh scent but throughout the day it dries down to have more of a masculine smell almost woodsy type! A very sexy fragrance that I feel like could also be used with any gender! A bold fragrance as well in terms of lasting power it definitely makes a statement when you walk into a room. The bottle as well is very great quality the spray mechanism is easy to use and actually a wonderful size for carry on in your bag when traveling! This is the one scent I truly think I will repurchase from time and time again! I believe I can wear this for hours without getting any sort of headache. The scent is also not too overpowering ... MoreBought this as a gift for a significant other and let me tell you they really loved this!!!

Such a trusted brand of mine throughout the years and I’m very impressed that they did it again with this fragrance! Everyone go buy it!!!!

Best Armani fragrance 2024

(I got this fragrance for free in exchange for an honest review.)I tried the new Giorgio Armani Code Eua De parfum 2024 edition for almost a week now and all i say is it's an absolute beast. This EDP version compared to the rest of the line is the freshest and the most compliment pulling out the rest of the line (meaning you will actually get compliments when wearing this). For the note breakdown you get top note being green mandarin essence, middle note Nutmeg essence , and base note tonka bean absolute. When wearing this the opening you immediately smell the green mandarin essence being very citrus with warm spice coming from the nutmeg and you get almost tabaco smell with a sweetness of vanilla coming from the base note tonka bean absolute.

For the dry down you mostly smell the tonka bean absolute and nutmeg essence. This is a very well made complex fragrance that i absolutely must recommend. To anyone whether you're just starting to explore the world of fragrances or need a new armani fragrance for your collection.

Folks this is a MASTERPIECE, Profumo but better

This is a refined version of Profumo. Thanks Giorgio Armani for the free sample. Profumo was too sweet, too heavy and rough around the edges. Yes, this one has that Armani Code dna, with vanilla and tonka. As it dries down, that leather from Profumo starts coming out in the best way possible. This scent is so smooth. It lasts 12 hours easily and can still be going strong the morning after. It is in that "beast mode" category, just ironed out. Still sweet but not like Profumo that punched you in the face. The sweetness, that leather is tamed by a silky smooth vanilla and lavender. For me, this is the best of both worlds. It had the Code dna that the OG has 20 years ago with that distinct profumo leathery note which has been toned down and ironed out so elegantly. ... MoreThis is a refined version of Profumo.

This could easily be a niche version of Armani Code and worth a niche price. The fact it's available at designer prices is a steal. If you're looking for a new signature scent particularly for the cooler months of the year, or simply add something new for an evening out, this one is a winner.

Love at first sniff!

Love at first sniff! Wow!Armani Code Eau De Parfum by Giorgio Armani is a fantastic offering from a well respected leader in the industry! Upon opening the box, it exudes quality and a premium feel that is thoroughly noticeable. While this is a nice touch, the scent is so attention grabbing!As soon as you spray on Armani Code EDP you get a great splash of freshness from the note of green mandarin which strikes a great balance with the softer and warmer notes of the fragrance. As the fragrance evolves and some of the citrus pop wears off, you get a lovely blend of nutmeg that is slightly spicy, warm and woody. The nutmeg note then blends seamlessly with the main player of tonka bean. The tonka bean is so nice, creamy, soft, powdery with a vanilla touch! It is so ... MoreLove at first sniff!

This would be fantastic for a date night with your significant other, or even an office safe fragrance!I get really good longevity from Armani Code EDP lasting about 8 hours. The projection is also quite good, even though it’s a soft projection, people will still notice it while in your presence.Armani Code Eau De Parfum is a fantastic do it all fragrance that is sure to garner compliments! I would highly recommend this fragrance for just about any man. It is masculine, but sensual. Sexy, but reserved. Soft and creamy, yet bold. It is so fantastic and I am loving wearing it!

The Story of Armani Code!

The original Armani Code was released in 2004 as an EDT concentration, it is still a best seller to this day. There has been many flankers released over the years such as Armani Code Ultimate and one of my favourites, Armani Code Profumo. Armani has now discontinued many of the Code Flankers which is a shame. Armani Code EDP was originally launched in 2021, it is a denser deeper and longer lasting scent than the EDT, of course the EDP is denser and longer lasting due to a higher concentration of oils. It retains the same fragrance DNA as the EDT which is a warm bright opening of Citrus that dries down to a woody base of warm Tonka. In 2023 Armani decided to change the bottle design, this was done to allow the bottle to be more eco friendly thus allowing customers to ... MoreThe original Armani Code was released in 2004 as an EDT concentration, it is still a best seller to this day.

In 2023 Armani decided to change the bottle design, this was done to allow the bottle to be more eco friendly thus allowing customers to ‘refill’ their bottle. Armani has streamlined the Code range and it now consists of Armani Code EDT, EDP and a Parfum concentration. The 3 fragrances share the same DNA but I would recommend using the EDT in Spring and Summer, the EDP in early Spring and Autumn and the Parfum is great in the Winter due to its dense nature.

The Sweet Outdoors But Classier

This fragrance has become one of my favorites. Definitely top 3. The smell perfectly embodies a blend of a spicy woody scent and citrus with a touch of sweetness to top it off. I’d also say that this is a versatile fragrance that effortlessly provides a clean scent with warm undertones. I found that the scent was most noticeable and complimented during evening outing or date nights. Since it is such a unique classy smell, it gives off a mysterious approachable aura, easily intriguing others. The longevity is phenomenal, a little can go a long way and the intensity levels seamlessly after about an hour and completely fades about 6-9 hours later, depending on the scenario. It has now become a trend for my friends to commandeer the bottle anytime we get together to go ... MoreThis fragrance has become one of my favorites. Definitely top 3.

smell great

This has a very nice, woody & sweet scent which was present but not overpowering. I definitely felt more confident using this product and liked how long it lasted. It doesn't smell like many of the other colognes I have used in the past and feel like it is a more modern twist on masculinity. They seem to have strung the right balance and power, scent and smoothness with this product.I love the citrus notes here, they last for quite a long time and give way to the woods in a gentle yet powerful way. One of the biggest issues with citrus scents is longevity for me, but this makes that concern a thing of the past. I got a decent 7 - 8 hours out of this, projecting near full force, and evolving as the day went on. It feels like walking through the caverns of a giant ... MoreThis has a very nice, woody & sweet scent which was present but not overpowering.
