1st of all, Armani is a designer brand I feel like I can always TRUST. Not to mention I have sampled Code before and therefore knew what to expect. The product was delivered to me several days before the given time expected. The fragrance itself goes well with my particular signature style of dress and specific body chemistry. Most importantly the Mrs couldn't get enough of smelling me while I was wearing it! A handful of anonymous compliments here and there, and the scent lasts a good while to be an Eau de Toilette, which unlike an Eau de Parfum requires routine refreshing in order to extend it's projection.
This is a spicy fragrance with the typical citrus top notes. Pairs well with the deodorant stick in the same Armani product line. I find this to be an attractive scent best suited to fall/winter. The downside is the scent is not particularly long-lasting, but the result is a scent that tends to come off fairly subtle (not at all powerful or overbearing).
