5.0 out of 5 stars I'm Not Much of a Cologne Wearer....
but I love this cologne. It's hard to review something like this considering that it all smells different on different people, but Black Code is a nice, mellow scent that isn't overpowering or distracting at all. I get so many compliments when I wear this out. I'd compare it to a Preferred Stock, but less potent. Black Code is a little more than I'd normally spend on...

1.0 out of 5 stars I received a copy of the fragrance!!!
To my surprise I received a cheap copy of the fragrance CODE from Armani. I got suspiscious when I unpacked because the plastic was thicker than usual. I then opened the box, which smelled strong and weird. It had linked in the box. Looking at the bottle and its cap I realized that the bottle and the cap were all scratched. Also, the word "CODE" was not written in...

While no cologne can guarantee that someone will tear off whatever clothes you're wearing just by your scent, this one definitely inspires compliments from people!

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this stuff, December 23, 2005
This fragrance is wonderful! I purchased a gift set for my husband and it smells even better on him than it did in the bottle. I didn't know that was possible. WARNING: THIS FRAGRANCE IS VERY SEDUCTIVE!!! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Cologne!, January 3, 2008
I recently purchased several colognes to see which would be best recieved for my upcoming music school interviews. Along with Code, I also purchased Drakkar Noir, Curve and Polo. Although I like Drakkar, The Code lasts longer and has a more memorable scent to it. In addition, while Code is a popular cologne, Drakkar is exponentially more popular and quite overused, I might add. I did like the Curve, but while it is attractive, it does not seem sophisticated at all - more of a teenager's cologne for casual wear. I did not like the Polo at all. I've tested this cologne at work and have recieved plenty of positive comments from my co-workers to convince me that Armani Code is the right choice.

5.0 out of 5 stars ONE MORE "A" FOR ARMANI, May 13, 2005

If memory serves, noted designer Giorgio Armani was once quoted as saying that his designs were created not to be noticed but rather to be remembered. A wonderful thought, typifying his always elegant, classic style. It's certainly true of his latest fragrance for men - Black Code.

This is a subtle, sensual scent with a touch of the oriental found in notes of lemon and bergamot. It's an ultra masculine fragrance, difficult to capture yet impossible to ignore.

True to Armani's vision, the glass bottle is artfully crafted - a cylinder of the deepest blue. It's gift boxed in the same color with printing in gray and white. Available in 1.7 and 2.5 oz. sprays, Black code is sure to take its place by the side of Armani's always popular Gio and Mania.

5.0 out of 5 stars Armani will never let you down, June 2, 2007

If you're understated, yet want to be remembered (like the statue, not the fly on its nose), then this is the cologne for you.

Rather than bringing up memories of high school dances, campus bars, or bingo halls, this little taste of Armani will do something all together different. Create a memory; of class, sophistication, and a (young) Marlon Brando. It's by no means intimidating; on the contrary, it's quite welcoming, like someone who wants to talk about the book you just both got done reading. The leather-bound edition.

None of that made any sense, but then again, how exactly do you go about describing something that's as nasally abstract as a cologne [seeks to be]?

Oh, that's how. Apparently there are entire websites of really, really, REALLY literate people who make a living reviewing cologne. Using words. Amazing.

I can't post the website here, but if you're interested, you can just google it. And believe me, it makes for some interesting reading. And it makes you realize that your/my grasp of the English language is pretty inadequate.

The line below: pchurase make hastiness of said smelly stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best thing on the market to date..., March 24, 2008
Armani Code is probably the best cologne I have used in my life. Girls like it and guys want to wear it. I typically only need one spray and that gets me through the day. Be careful though, spraying two shots will overkill and may give you a headache. I use this and Burberry London as well as Lacoste Essential just to give you an Idea of my rotation. I prefer this to those as well but only on weekends will I wear the Burberry or Lacoste.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is a highly recommended cologne for the discerning man. It lasts a long time but is not over powering. Nice gift.

1.0 out of 5 stars I received a copy of the fragrance!!!, December 14, 2008
To my surprise I received a cheap copy of the fragrance CODE from Armani. I got suspiscious when I unpacked because the plastic was thicker than usual. I then opened the box, which smelled strong and weird. It had linked in the box. Looking at the bottle and its cap I realized that the bottle and the cap were all scratched. Also, the word "CODE" was not written in pure white, it was more like a beige, which is usually a sign of copied product. A bit despaired, I took the bottle to a parfum shop to compare the odor with another CODE. It was obviously different!

I then wrote to the Amazon and the seller who wrote me back quickly and were very sorry about my bad luck. The seller asked me to send the bottle back and promised a full refund. He will works it out with his supplier.

I know many people are happy with their purchase (that's why I decided to give internet a try), I guessed I was just unlucky?!
