This is one of the most beautiful, sexy scents currently on the market. If you are a gourmand/oriental fragrance lover (examples of which include Thierry Mugler's Angel or Angel Innocent, Bvlgari's Omnia, Calvin Klein's Euphoria, or Burberry's Brit - all of which I own and wear regularly without longevity issues - see next paragraph) then I would highly recommend this fragrance. Sweet, but in a sexy, subtle musky way.

I would bathe myself in this fragrance if I could. And I should. As noted by the previous reviewer, this fragrance is gone in flash. I give myself about 5 hearty sprays of this in the morning, including two directly misted onto my clothing in an effort to extend the fragrance, but it is gone by noon. This is truly perplexing. Every other Giorgio Armani frangrance that I own, including Sensi, Emporio She, and Armani Code for Men (also great for women), can go the distance.

This is supposed to be Eau de Parfum, but wears very much like Eau de Toilette. Someone seriously skimped on the oil base. It that doesn't trouble you terribly, pick this one up. If you want something similar that will last through the entire day and most of the night, and particularly love the musk component of this fragrance, then I would wholeheartedly recommend checking out Narciso Rodriguez's "For Her" or "Musc for Her" instead.

This one could appeal to a variety of fragrance lovers as it seems to find that middle ground in preferences. It's not too spicy, not sickeningly sweet. It's not trying to do too much. Just effortless. One thing I like about this, you're not at risk at dousing yourself and offending other noses. I hate smelling or leaving a trail of perfume in the air. This one has restraint. Staying power is debatable but it's such a wonderful, confident woman scent, I gave it 5 stars.

this perfume is heavenly!! it doesn't give off this floral, overly citrus scent that most women get from their perfume but it has a seductive, mysterious musk that leaves people wanting more! people are always complimenting me on how good I smell and guys go crazy for it! i strongly recommend this perfume for every women.

Glamorous, mysterious, seductive all describe Armani Code, a captivating orange blossom based scent from Giorgio Armani Fragrance.

As one would expect from this master couturier the bottle itself is a gem. Tapering from a weighted base the slim flacon seems to glow as lacquered shades of blue sweep from an early dawn at the bottom of the sleek holder to midnight nearing the top. Adding to the fragrance's intrigue is an oriental effect achieved by lace embroidery on the glass.

The scent is sweet yet sensuous with a sparkle provided by orange zest. With orange blossom at its heart Armani Code is enhanced by Sambac jasmine, Madagascan vanilla and honey. The man in my life called it "delicious," and I do, too. It's now high on my list of favorite fragrances.

Men will love it.


Only complaint: scent doesn't last too long. It deserves to last long.

I sprayed a tester sheet at a perfume counter with this scent. After shopping a bit, I went back and decided to buy it. It's nice and light, but after wearing it for the first time, I realized it's TOO light. I couldn't even smell it when I held my wrist to my nose. The second time, I decided to apply more. I must've used 6-7 sprays and still, only a lingering aroma. For the amount you have to use and the faintness of the scent, I wouldn't recommend it.

I received the 2.5oz bottle of Code by Armani as a gift on my birthday, AND another one for Christmas. Two different occasions and from 2 different people. Serendipity had it: I had finally found a perfume I would stick with. The mixture diffuses a very agreeable and attractive smell that screams "femme(woman)!" but I do not find it to be girly-girly. The scent is not "agressive" at all for lack of a better word. It also helps that just a few sprays are all that one needs for a scent that lasts all day. As a woman in my late 20s, I find that this perfume complements what I strive to be like: simple yet distinguished; sweet but yet strong; self-assured and determined but yet light-hearted and happy :o)!

the best i have smelled.
put this on your babies momma and you'l be smooching all night long.
you just wont wanna let your woman go.

if you r a woman buying this, your man will go crazy for you, and if he doesnt i will. lol.

I purchased this perfume while searching for something professional, yet feminine, to wear to work. What I ended up with is a pleasant floral/musk fragrance that I receive many compliments on, and a pretty bottle that looks nice on my dresser.

The fragrance starts out with a spicy scent of citrus and ginger with a sweeter jasmine and vanilla undertone. After about twenty to thirty minutes, the scent becomes more musky, like sandalwood, but still retaining the pleasant, light floral scent underneath. The overall fragrance lasts for a full work day, and I often receive compliments on the fragrance even late in the afternoon or early evening, after approximately ten to twelve hours of wear.

This is one of my favorite perfumes, at least partly because of what it is NOT: Armani Code for women is never overly sweet and flowery, edibly fruit-scented, nor beach and ocean-ish. Instead, it is a pleasant mix of musk and feminity that pairs well with my long working day. Although the Armani advertisements I have seen tend to bill this item as ultra-sexy, femme fatale material, I generally use this scent as "work" perfume rather than "date" perfume.

Also, if you like to display your perfume bottles (as I do), the bottle has a curvy shape with a nice pattern and an unusual purple color.
