Armani Code Absolu
Armani Code Absolu by Giorgio Armani is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2019 in the designer price tier. It opens with mandarin and cardamom, moves into rum and dries down to tonka bean, myrrh and vanilla. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Heart
- Rum Boozy, sweet and warm. Adds a grown-up edge to gourmands.
Dry-down
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
- Myrrh Bitter, smoky resin. Ancient-smelling and slightly cool.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
