How it moves

You meet bergamot and lemon at the door. The middle belongs to olive blossom, star anise and guaiac wood. What is left hours later is Tonka Bean, tobacco and leather, and that is the part people follow you for.

Who made it

Antoine Maisondieu composed it in 2004, for Giorgio Armani in Italy. Originally launched as Black Code, this tonka-and-olive-blossom oriental became the definitive mid-2000s date-night masculine.
