When Armani describes its Armani Code Femme fragrance, the house simply says it is a mysterious, sophisticated and distinguished juice. It displays an unmatched power of seduction and seems capable of capturing the intimacy of a new and unforgettable encounter.
In 2004, the house of Armani had already offered the oriental and spicy accents of Armani Code pour Homme, the handsome nocturnal seducer. In 2006, a trio of renowned perfumers from IFF developed for the house of Armani its beautiful feminine counterpart, Armani Code Femme. Like its masculine alter ego, it does not hesitate to play with light and shadow to better enchant us.
Armani Code Femme and its three creators Dominique Ropion, Olivier Polge and Carlos Benaim.
The house of Armani delights in offering great fragrances, moreover fragrances composed by virtuosos of the “mouillette”. To create Armani Code Homme in 2004, Armani turned to the great perfumers Antoine Lie and Antoine Maisondieu. A true success in perfumery, Armani continued to turn to great names in creation.
Thus, in 2006, Armani Code pour Femme was composed by Dominique Ropion, Olivier Polge and Carlos Benaim. Together, the three men are behind a multitude of best-selling fragrances. For Dominique Ropion, one can mention Amor Amor, Alien or even Very Irresistible. As for Olivier Polge, he is behind the creations of Flowerbomb, Dior Homme and of course all of the Chanel fragrances released since 2013, as he has become their exclusive nose. Lastly, for Carlos Benaim, the painter of sun-drenched memories, one can mention Polo, Polo Blue, Premier Jour, Pure Poison and many others...
Each of them thus brought to this magnificent chiaroscuro that is Armani Code Femme accords as luminous as they are nocturnal. In working on orange blossom, for example, Carlos Benaim was able to bring out that delicate opulence tied to memory, in order to create a radiant light for this Armani Code woman.
Orange blossom evokes, more than anything, my childhood in Tangier: the trees in bloom, perfuming the whole city; its water, which was sprinkled on guests during celebrations; and the flavor of its candied petals, the letuario de Azahar, as well as the sweet orange preserves that were always made in spring. Thus, it is the splendor of orange blossom that inspired me for Giorgio Armani's Armani Code. Carlos Benaim for Armani Code Femme.
The flower woman between shadow and light of Armani Code Femme
Like the vast majority of fragrances signed Armani, Armani Code Femme naturally pays homage to the Italian roots of Giorgio Armani. Of course, the beautiful Armani Code Femme is also a powerful elixir meant to be offered to women who are as strong as they are fragile, contrasted and fulfilled women who embrace both their light and their shadow.
The light of Armani Code Femme is of course first brought by the sparkling notes of citrus and ginger. But it is indeed the Sambac jasmine and the orange blossom from Tunisia that particularly envelop this Armani Code Femme in an opulent, warm light.
As for the shadows and nocturnal facets, they are of course brought out by the gourmand and sensual depths of Madagascar vanilla, sandalwood and honey.
The contrast of shadow and light played out by the flowers reflects the interplay of mystery and seduction of the feminine figure, at once sensual and glamorous, and fatal and irresistible. Armani for Armani Code Femme.
