Armani Prive Blanc Kogane

Mostly creamy heady flowers like jasmine and gardenia, rich and full. Underneath that, fizzy and clean, the effervescent quality that makes classic perfumes smell like perfume.

It opens on aldehydes and indian jasmine, moves through white musk and lily, and settles on patchouli and vetiver.

• aldehydes: the fizzy, soapy sparkle that makes a classic perfume smell like perfume rather than like any one ingredient
• white musk: the clean-laundry kind of musk: soft, soapy and very mild

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.
