What does Armani Privé - Rose d'Artiste smell like?

Bergamot adds a light freshness, while iris and violet lay down a powdery base and orange blossom pushes it towards a creamy, sweet side. Frankincense, myrrh and ambroxan leave a woody, slightly synthetic backdrop, with a fruity touch alongside the flowers.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and business and leisure are among the occasions named most often.
