Giorgio Armani Emporio Armani Diamonds Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008. Emporio Armani Diamonds Intense opens with Raspberry and Litchi, settles into a heart of Rose, Lily of the Valley, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Giorgio Armani's Emporio Armani Diamonds Intense carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

A truly divisive 'intense' flanker. Fans adore its richer, sweeter take on the original, often describing it as glamorous and sensuous. However, some find it overly heady, synthetic, or even nauseating. Definitely test before you commit, as it’s a love-it-or-hate-it affair.

Scent Profile

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.

Given its strong sillage and impressive longevity, especially in 'intense' form, this scent can be overpowering for an office. It shines on dates and formal occasions due to its glamorous, sensual quality, with some finding it acceptable for evening casual wear. Definitely not for sport.

About

Emporio Armani Diamonds Intense plunges you into a syrupy, sweet embrace, opening with candied raspberry and the exotic freshness of litchi. The heart blossoms with a bouquet of classic rose and bright freesia, underpinned by lily of the valley. The dry down settles into a warm, woody base of cedar and patchouli, softened by creamy vanilla and a hint of earthy vetiver, creating a gourmand-leaning fruity-floral with a deep, lasting resonance.
