What does Armani Code Absolu pour Homme smell like?

Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Voters mostly read its character as masculine and modern.

As a whole it smells fruity and sweet: green mandarin orange and apple add freshness, while vanilla, tonka bean and orange blossom give a creamy, gourmand warmth. Nutmeg and carrot seed bring a spicy edge, and suede draws a powdery, leathery backdrop.
