Armani Code Ultimate

by Antoine Maisondieu

Giorgio Armani Armani Code Ultimate is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Antoine Maisondieu. Armani Code Ultimate opens with Star Anise, Grapefruit, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Cypress, Cedar, Olive Tree, and Heliotrope, and dries down to a base of Guaiac Wood, Tonka Bean, and Vanilla. Giorgio Armani's Armani Code Ultimate carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This discontinued gem is lauded as the best Armani Code flanker, hands down. A warm vanilla-gourmand with surprising depth, it's a confident, seductive choice, even if some sniffy reviewers call it generic. It's an undisputed compliment-getter, pure sex in a bottle.

About

Opens with a fleeting zest of grapefruit and mandarin, quickly diving into an aromatic heart where star anise adds a soft spicy intrigue. Woody notes of cypress and cedar provide a masculine structure, cushioned by a heliotrope-infused powdery sweetness. The dry-down is pure indulgence, a thick, creamy blend of tonka bean and vanilla, warmed by guaiac wood for a lasting, inviting embrace.
