Blossom Perfumery 011 Coded is an Eau de Parfum. 011 Coded opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Guaiac Wood, and Star Anise, and dries down to a base of Leather, Tonka Bean, and Tobacco. Blossom Perfumery's 011 Coded carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

No. 011 chases the citrus-leather signature of Giorgio Armani's Code, opening with the same bright bergamot-lemon spark before settling into a flatter, louder leather-tobacco base. It skips Code's slow-building sensuality for an instant, budget-friendly hit that fades faster and projects less.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

No. 011 is Blossom Perfumery's take on Armani Code, built around the same citrus-into-leather arc that made the original a modern classic. The opening leans hard on bergamot and lemon zest, sharper and more synthetic than the original's smoother blend, with a quick flash of star anise for spice. The heart brings orange blossom and guaiac wood, but where Code develops these slowly over hours, No. 011 rushes through them within the first thirty minutes. The base settles into leather, tonka bean and tobacco, giving a reasonably close dry-down impression, though thinner and less resinous than the designer version. Projection is loud for the first hour then drops off quickly, and longevity tops out around four to five hours on skin, well short of Code's reputation for lasting into the next day. For anyone wanting a cheap taste of Code's citrus-leather-tobacco profile for a night out without the investment, this covers the basics competently, but it reads as a flatter, simpler echo rather than a true match.
