Giorgio Armani Code

Giorgio Armani Code have produced bestselling fragrances for more than a decade – and with good reason. The 'code' element of the name refers to the brand's own interpretation of 'the code of seduction', which is delivered through the innovative and sophisticated combination of different aromatic notes.

As the brand's very first oriental fragrance for men, Code draws its unique character from a blend of carefully chosen aromatic infusions. A citron cocktail of lemon and bergamot is leant warmth by guaiac wood and tonka bean, producing a singular fragrance that's both timelessly sensual and effortlessly elegant.

Housed in a midnight blue bottle – itself inspired by the Armani suit that Denzel Washington famously wore to the Oscars – the fragrance boasts a quite unique aesthetic and feel. And then, in Profumo – the Italian word for perfume – the brand are able to offer a powerful and fiery take on the iconic Code, one that's further amplified by a wood-amber accord.
