Armani Prive Magenta Tanzanite

Mostly warm baking spice, in the cinnamon and clove family. Underneath that, smells like food: caramel, chocolate, vanilla, bakery.

It opens on cardamom, ginger and bergamot, moves through cinnamon, myrrh and coffee, and settles on tobacco, vanilla and tonka bean.

• cardamom: cool green spice with an aromatic, almost soapy lift
• ginger: sharp and fresh with a peppery bite, closer to the raw root than to gingerbread

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.
