Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Armani Code Summer pour Femme EDT
A divisive take on the original Code, this summer flanker is a beautiful orange blossom-led scent, but its fresh, watery character doesn't appeal to everyone. Its elusive nature (being a limited edition) means many are gutted they can't get their hands on it now.

Our Verdict - Milan Heat For Women EDP
A budget take on Armani Code Summer Pour Femme. Milan Heat captures that juicy pear-sorbet and bitter-orange opening flowing into a soft orange-blossom and jasmine heart - light, flirty and summery. Like the original it stays close to the skin with modest longevity, the fruity sparkle reading a touch more synthetic here.

Season and Occasion Fit

Armani Code Summer pour Femme

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its lighter, aquatic nature and 'office-friendly' reviews make it suitable for casual and workday wear. However, its excellent lasting power and strong sillage, noted by several reviewers, might make it less ideal for formal settings where subtlety is key.

Milan Heat For Women

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The juicy pear, bitter orange and airy florals make this a warm-weather scent built for spring and summer; far too light for cold months.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date Sport

Light, flirty and unobtrusive - ideal for casual outings, daily wear and easy dates, fine for the office; too soft and playful for formal evenings.
