The review
A long shot. That is where Code Intense 2288 lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Armani Code Eau de Parfum.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Armani Code Eau de Parfum's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
It is $122 per 100ml.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
What it is chasing: lavender, lemon and bergamot up top, Tonka Bean in the middle, vanilla, suede and musk underneath — the shape of Giorgio Armani Code Eau de Parfum.
Top
- lavender
- lemon
- bergamot
Heart
- Tonka Bean
Base
- vanilla
- suede
- musk
Lavender ironed flat against tonka and suede; Code's seduction rewritten in a softer, creamier register.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
