Armani My Way

Mostly creamy heady flowers like jasmine and gardenia, rich and full. Underneath that, bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel.

It opens on orange blossom and bergamot, moves through tuberose and indian jasmine, and settles on madagascar vanilla, white musk and virginian cedar.

• orange blossom: the flower of the orange tree rather than the fruit: sweet, honeyed and a little green
• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
