Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Armani Code Cashmere EDP
This discontinued gem is a collective heartbreak for those who adore its warm, sensual embrace. A true beast-mode performer, Code Cashmere is celebrated for its creamy almond, sweet jasmine, and intriguing smoky depth, though a few find the grapey opening a bit much or the almond too overwhelming.
Statement
Our Verdict - Milan Encrypt Wool EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Armani Code Cashmere - a floral fragrance led by Jasmine Sambac, Orange Blossom, with leather depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.
