Description

Armani Code Parfum (launched autumn 2022) is a sophisticated reinvention of the classic Armani Code DNA—infused with elegance and depth. It elevates the familiar woody-aromatic base with a powdery-iris heart, giving it both strength and refined softness (fragrantica.com). The result is a fragrance that balances dapper citrus and sage with irresistible iris and creamy tonka bean, all anchored by warm cedar.
