It is undeniable: a black suit is far more seductive than any other garment. The rigorous choice of raw materials, the constant attention to detail and the simple, clean lines add even more presence to it. It is precisely in this register that the Italian house Armani has always positioned itself. In 2004, it decided to add to this dress code a singular touch of fragrance: Armani Code. In 2022, this cult fragrance is modernized and becomes Armani Code Parfum.
Armani Code is a cult fragrance of masculine perfumery. Created in 2004, it was at the time the first fragrance from the house of Armani to explore the oriental register, as a symbol of mystery and sensuality. In 2022, its success remains ever present and Armani Code continues to make headlines. For the very first time, it transforms its silhouette and gets a new bottle. It also gains a new face of the campaign in the person of Regé-Jean Page. But what exactly is its composition? Here is a closer look.
The luminous freshness of the top notes of Armani Code Parfum
With Armani Code Parfum, everything begins with an intense freshness. This composition opens on luminous, vibrant and powerful top notes. Calabrian bergamot unfurls its airy breath. Extracted through molecular distillation, it multiplies its freshness. Indeed, this process allows perfumers to isolate the green fraction of bergamot, selecting only certain molecules of this raw material, to make its vivacity last. In passing, it should be noted that the choice of bergamot is not incidental. It is a nod to the Italian origins of the Armani house.
The elegant floral heart of Armani Code Parfum
At its heart, Armani Code Parfum becomes more elegant and refined. It relies on one of the noblest raw materials in the entire perfumer's palette: iris. This creation contains, more precisely, iris concrete and Moroccan iris resinoid. To this is added a more aromatic note of aldehydes, echoing the initial contrast of the original Armani Code. This effect is further underscored by the presence of clary sage from Provence.
The powerful base of Armani Code Parfum
Finally, little by little, the masculinity of this fragrance gains ground. Virginia cedarwood comes to underscore the untamed and strong character of this creation. What is more, this ingredient allows this fragrance to gain in persistence. Thanks to it, the tenacity of Armani Code Parfum remains intact for many hours. The whole is further wrapped in an absolute of Brazilian tonka bean, for an ultimate breath of softness, releasing a very sensual touch.
Regé-Jean Page explains that Armani Code Parfum is built around a familiar masculinity, with woody base notes and musk, which combine with a more floral complexity. This gives it a modern sophistication and freshness.
Rigorously selected raw materials
Finally, because men are also increasingly attentive to what they consume, and because it is becoming essential to create while preserving resources, Armani Code Parfum relies on a more responsible composition. Armani Code Parfum is part of a sustainable development approach. It is an exceptional creation, more environmentally friendly. Its creator, Antoine Maisondieu, chose only precious ingredients, of natural origin and sourced sustainably.
