Armani Code (Original 2004 Release)

This is the version that won the FiFi Award Fragrance Of The Year Men's Luxe 2006. It's an Oriental Spicy fragrance.

Top Notes: Lemon and Bergamot. This gives the fragrance a fresh, citrusy, and zesty opening.

Middle Notes: Star Anise, Olive Blossom, and Guaiac Wood. The star anise provides a unique, sweet, and slightly liquorice-like spiciness, which is a signature of this scent. The olive blossom and guaiac wood add a woody and slightly floral touch.

Base Notes: Leather, Tonka Bean, and Tobacco. The dry down is rich, warm, and sensual. The tonka bean and tobacco notes create a cozy, sweet, and slightly smoky aroma, while the leather adds a dark and masculine dimension.
